There is a picture of a master cylinder in the ad..
If looking for a donor for that sort of stuff there are plenty of options like it in various newer and more common trucks. First research if replacement MC and booster (from whatever you're looking at) can be had reasonably at the parts store to avoid swapping in expensive/obsolete parts.
