Jul 21st, 2025 | | | | Joined: Mar 2004 Posts: 23 New Guy | | New Guy Joined: Mar 2004 Posts: 23 | Hello All, I am modifying a 42 pickup which has the original drivetrain in it. I am in the planning phase. I wanted to sort out how I was going to mount an under the floor brake assembly on the frame rail since the original assembly is mounted directly to the transmission. I called ECI and Chassis Engineering, the only idea they had was to buy a universal one which welds in place. I am looking for a better idea, anyone set one up themselves and have a better idea?
Thanks in advance.

My 40 chev master 85 used to have the brake cylinder mounted under the floor. I Think it was mounted to the frame. | | | | | Joined: Jan 2000 Posts: 2,074 'Bolter | | 'Bolter Joined: Jan 2000 Posts: 2,074 | All depends on how many modifications you are planning to make. If staying with a six you can keep your original bellhousing which has mounts for the master cyl/pedal assy. If going V8 you may want to use master cyl on the firewall with swing pedals. | | |
