Re: Rear Brake Adjustment with Auto-Adjusters

I might add that there are at least 2 companies out there selling dual chamber master cylinders that they claim will bolt onto the factory booster and it just isn't true...at least on my '62 anyway. I went through 4 of them with one company over a period of 3 months and finally just gave up. The last one they sent had a stepped chamber design that finally did clear the hood...barely...but with the mounting angle on the booster it introduced a massive air bubble in the front chamber that I could never get to clear.

You could go to the newer hydroboost type. Using your power steering pump it takes up little room.
