Power break booster 67 Cuda

[CUDA 67]

I had my Cuda in for body and other work a few years ago and they removed the power brake booster for some reason, leaking maybe. I want to put a new one on now for one of the final needs along with a new steering gear to get the slop out of the power steering. I replaced the leaking master cylinder just to have some brakes but want to go back to power assisted. I see lots of options at Classic Industries and Summit (my usual source). Can I use the current master cylinder or should I buy the set with master already attached? What size do I need? Dual or single diaphragm? I can only seem to find universal, do I trust these? I still have the bracket from the old one. Unfortunatley due to back issues I can no longer crawl under the dash but I have a reliable master mechanic that will help but would like to find the parts before calling him over. It has drums all around, 273 4bbl Commando engine.

I wouldn't trust one of those "universal kits" as far as I could throw it. Too many issues, no parts availability.
If you've still got the original booster, pack it up and send it to
Vacuum Brake Boosters | Power Brake Booster Exchange, Lynwood
or
Home - Harmon Classic Brakes
for a full, better-than-new rebuild.
And yes, it will work with your existing master (15/16 bore per factory, other bores will still work).
If you don't have the booster, try this one from Dr. Diff:
Bendix Style Dual Diaphragm Booster for Mopars
available with or without the standoff brackets and linkage, depending if you still have your originals or not.

Steering gear cross shafts are adjustable.

Steering gear cross shafts are adjustable.

How? I thought I had done that but it did not make much difference. Maybe I was turning the wrong screw inside the steering gear box.
