In Reply to: does anyone know if a '72 brake booster will fit posted by in '68-'69 1600? - Elliot on July 22, 2001 at 21:17:37:

Yes, I assume you currently have the early remote booster setup, with a funky looking booster mounted on the inside fender, on a bracket? It has the brake master cyl on the pedal box, that has hard lines to the booster?

You'll need a '70-'76 pedal box if you currently have or are installing a hydraulic clutch.

You'll need a '68 2002 pedal box if you're keeping the mechanical clutch.

After you remove your old brake booster, bracket, and pedal box, you'll need to remove your steering rod (which is between the steering wheel hub and the steering box), and cut a square out of your firewall insulation around the 4 bolts that hold the steering rod guide at the firewall.

Then mount the booster bracket on your new brake booster to those four holes on the firewall, reinstall bolts, reinstall steering rod, and connect brakes.

Hope this helps,

David
'68 1600-2
