truck build with rear mounted brake boosters
A few months ago I was looking at a build where dual brake boosters were mounted out back by the rear. I believe it was all painted red, if I remember correctly.
Does anyone remember also seeing this, and if so, do you have the link? Thanks |

Re: truck build with rear mounted brake boosters
That's it! Thank you. I don't know why I thought it was red.
I was looking in my 67-72 factory assembly manual and there are two pages showing boosters mounted on the frame rails and they are referred to as "vacuum power cylinders". That's what made me think of it. Here's a shot: |

Why would they do this? Never seen this before.

Re: truck build with rear mounted brake boosters
I believe it was for heavy duty trucks.
