Is there any consideration regarding what motor you have? I have a chev 350 in the cj. Does the vacume factor of the different motor dictate the power bost kit i buy?

Not for the engine. If you have enough vacuum, it doesn't matter if you have a V8 or an I6.

I'm curious why you seemed to flip the bracket upside down when you installed your kit? The picture from Pirate Jack's, and the other brackets I've seen installed on Jeeps seem to have the "pivot point" mounted pointing down toward the ground. Was there clearance issues? Does it matter?

I questioned that myself when I installed it. It doesn't fit the other way, so I can only guess that the picture Pirate Jacks uses is upside down.

Thanks for the info. I’m rebuilding my second ‘74 cj5 304 and I live in a very hilly area and I’m sick of standing on that pedal with all my might hoping I’ll stop. I think I’m ready to pull the trigger on this and hang the cost. Parts in Canada are almost double and I usually ship to my US mailbox and just run down and pick up my parts 5 mins away but not anymore. Might as well just do it. Thanks COVID.

I originally had manual brakes. The brake booster pedal rod was too long so I lowered the pedal to line it up. but my brake pedal is soft. Also, my brakes seem to get worse (I have to pump or hit it harder to stop) the longer I drive? Any idea what's causing these headaches? 😥

It sounds like either a pedal alignment problem or the new aster cylinder has too small a bore.

@@whattherust I figured out the issue. The problem was that the "bullet" (spacer) inside the brake master cylinder was missing. I knew nothing about brakes, so didn't figure this out until I ordered a brand new power brake assembly kit... 😬 But, at least now I have nice hard brakes. 😇

Hey thanks for the video... That makes me wonder if my mc is bad or just has a deep hole? When I take the mc off the hole it goes really deep into the mc... 😯😬is that normal? Even if I don't touch it.

It is normal if the pin coming from the brake pedal or the brake booster is long enough to take up the space inside the MC.

What mods are required? My mc has a 7/16" and 1/2" threaded adapters.. I need something direct fit please...

Those adapters will work with the new MC too. This kit is as close to a direct fit as you will find.

Do you have a part number for this booster/mc? I like the slim design
