i seem to be really lost :/ thought i knew the answer but now i dont know lol i just switched my drum/drum to disc/ drum. my 72 duster come with manual drum brakes. although when i went to orilys to get a manual master cylinder they could only find them saying that their for power brakes and they didnt knw if i could just bolt that on and use it that way. also the doorman one says its for power brakes. is there any difference between the two? i really dont knw if i can just buy the power one bolt it on bleed the brakes and be good very lost sry i sound dumb.
 
...........the manual brake cyl has a groove machined in it to accept the squared runner o ring on the manual pushrod......kim......
 
Pretty certain the rear recess in the master cylinder is a different depth between the two.
 
oh okay makes sense, what about the year before or after? the master cylinder from a 1973 duster manual disc fron rear drum is out there Part Number: M1627
Alternate Part Number: 10-1627 from autozone just wanna make sure that it would work thx!
 
Grab the 73 manual disc MC,you'll be fine. That's actually the year/model I use.
 
Up until 73 there were manual drum/drum, power drum/drum and power KH disc/drum.
I'm not sure there was a manual KH disc/drum.
If you have installed 73 and later Chrysler front discs you would use the master cylinder and perportion valve for 73 up application.
