Does anyone know if the master cylinder for a two ton (6400) is the same as for the pickups? I can find ones for pick up everywhere, but nothing specifically for the 6400. If it matters, I have Huck brakes.the only number on it is Wagner JK27, but that crosses to many different styles of master cylinder.

oldieoldie The big trucks have a much bigger (bore) than 3100 takes more fluid on 6400.

oldieoldie,

It is not the same as the 1/2 ton, but same for 3/4 ton (Commercial) and up through "Utility" trucks (which includes your 6400). See snapshot below (red arrow indicates your application) from this page CYLINDER ASSEMBLY, Hydraulic Brake Main

A further check of the GM# 5454382 cross references to Dorman M9220. Search that number on the web and you will find a whole bunch of vendors offering it for various prices, some much better than others - LOL.

Hope you find this helpful?
