The booster portion appears to be in fairly decent shape. I've not had the time to actually dig into the system to see where things are not working.
I plan on putting this truck back to more or less stock condition, but small modern upgrades are acceptable (i.e. a new modern booster). I don't plan on hauling 9600 lbs of grain on a regular basis with this truck but I do plan on using it occasionally for loads and would like good brakes.
What options are out there? What do you suggest? I'll be keeping the stock drum / drum brakes. Thanks. | | | |
