I keep reading about swapping 720 brake boosters for other models. I've heard of Hardbody ones being used as well as cars and such. Can anybody give me any clue as to what works best and what I need to make it work so I can get this monstrosity off the firewall? Thanks.

I myself owned a 82 Datsun with the same problem & when I had hydraulics installed in the front the cylinders were hitting the brake booster. So...I had a buddy of mine who ran a local brake shop install a brake booster & pedal assembly out of a 91 harbody & it worked out great. We did have to do alittle fab to get it all to allign up, but it was a pretty easy thing to do. Hope this helps you out.

Due to the extreme amount of drugs I did in my early childhood years I have very short term memory as to what you told me. Instead of spending a couple hundred bucks on drop spindles I choose to spend 3800 on other things to fix the problem.

LOL...what fun would that be though. I prefer to test the fabrication skills of everyone involved with my projects.
