[WANTED] WANTED brake booster

[darndart]

Looking for a original style power brake booster for a 72 Duster. Let me know if someone has one laying around.

Bendix or Midland Ross?

Bendix or Midland Ross?

Not sure, I’m adding power brakes to my 72 Duster and wanted it to look semi correct. What’s the difference?

Bendix is a crimped canister and Midland is a clamped style. You will need to make sure that you match the booster to the type of brakes you have, disc fronts or drum. The push rod must match up with your master cylinder.

You'll also need the mounting brackets for the booster too.

Thanks for the info. The car has a 73 K-member with BBP Disc brakes(manual). Would I need a specific master cyl, by adding a booster?

The push rod between the booster and MC are two different lengths.
I'm not sure which brake type uses the the longer one.

I have a spare Midland-Ross that I need to hang onto. These boosters are getting so rare now. If you do find one (they are out there) I highly recommend you send it to Power Brake Booster Exchange in OR. They rebuilt mine with a seven week turn-around and a good price too.

Good to know, thanks

Don't forget that you'll need the rod from the pedal to the booster too. Not sure if the rod is different between the Bendix booster and the Midland Ross.

Bendix (disc brakes) is a dual diaphragm booster, where as a Midland Ross (drum brakes) is a single diaphragm booster. Don't buy a used booster unless you plan on rebuilding it. Cass Dr. Diff sells repop ones and knows his stuff.

My Midland Ross booster is factory with front disc.
