[QUOTE="Lifted_Tea, post: 1384371, member: 25658"] Appreciate the offer rusty but this is actually my project truck so it's no big deal if it sits for awhile, been parked for almost 6 months now and still counting. Ok guys I have a few questions now that all my parts for the conversion came in. Since I plan on keeping my drum rears I wanted to keep my original master cylinder to keep the proportioning correct so I wanted to order the brake booster Got4wd was talking about (Part # 6u9z-2005-a) because that's supposed to be the booster for those of us who don't have the rear disc conversion and wanting to re-use our original master cylinder. Well went to Rockauto and typed in that part number and it only came up as a rebuilding service where I'd have to send my old one in to be rebuilt. Since I obviously didn't have an old one to send it I decided to look at the buyers guide they list to see what vehicle that part number was supposed to go with. It said that it fit 2003-2014 F53. So knowing that I went to a 2003 F53 on Rockauto and checked out their hydro brake boosters and it came up with Part # 527367 which looked to be correct and appeared to be the one Got4wd had in his pictures and so I figured they may have changed the numbers or something so I ordered that booster. Just got it in today and test fit it. Well the hoses and fittings all fit this brake booster but had some issues with it. The booster itself wasn't a direct bolt up to the fire wall. It's very close but will need to ream out the holes in fire wall to make it fit which was my first red flag as I read all of you guys didn't have to do that with your brake boosters. Second red flag was when my original master cylinder didn't bolt right up which was the main reasoning behind purchasing this individual booster. I'd have to notch it out to keep my original master cylinder which as i said before is what I was trying to avoid by buying this individual brake booster. Third red flag was that the brake booster did not come with the rod. All that being said the booster I bought was clearly not the equivalent to part # 6u9z-2005-a and with nothing coming up for part # 6u9z-2005-a anywhere else on the internet at a reasonable price it's safe to say that the big online auto warehouses no longer carry that part # and I'm SOL at getting it cheap. Now with that being said If I do buy the BRB-37 booster but wanted to keep my original master cylinder can I? I'm assuming with Got4wd's comment on having to notch the original masters when bolting up with the F-Superduty booster that I can but just want to double check before I go through the exchange process and order the wrong booster....again. I don't mind ordering the 6u9z-2005-a booster from ford as I get a little discount from the shop I work at but If I could save a couple $$$ and order the BRB-37 online and only have to live with a notch in my master cylinder then that notch is something I can live with.
