Can you get the correct LC depth piston put in your master cylinder or are they NLA?

 

Terry at Hydroboost might have a pushrod to suit.

I'd Say NLA ,Rexy ,the whole kit may be available ,it's just been recoed I wasn't aware it had the deeper LJ primary piston.I think finding a longer pushrod will be easier .

I kinda remember some time ago a forum member was chasing an issue with a long/low brake pedal and he made up a longer threaded adjustment piece that screws into the end of the pushrod.

Yeah I was thinking the same Dave, whack a bolt in it end and round off the end.But I was advised not to do that by a Brake Shop.

Hey Paul, perhaps give this mob a call, they are a wrecker in WA and have Torana single diaphragm boosters for $50.

I found 3 yesterday that measured a bit over 68mm, roughly with a tape measure. So if I find my calipers they could be right. Found another today that's about 84, don't know what that booster was from.
