Pedal height differance with new Power brake booster

70RR2GO · Aug 16, 2015

I just hooked up the linkage under the dash and can clearly see a major difference in the pedal heights. The brake pedal is lower to the floor than the clutch pedal. I can't really tell you how it was before since it's been so long. The booster-master-linkage is from Pirate. Is there an adjustable rod that goes from the petal to the booster linkage? Any one else experience this?

Did you bleed the brakes when you serviced the booster? What kind of booster is it? Most of them have an adjustable push rod and you usually have to adjust the brake light switch bracket as well.

The system is all brand new and fluid hasn't been put in the system. I'm not sure the manufacture, but it's the black booster that priate jack and ram man sell. The only adjuster that I saw was on the front of the booster that would engage into the master. I didn't pull the boot back to see if there's an adjustment on it that goes to the inside linkage.

Thanks, Hsorman! I'm defiantly going to extend the linkage with the two eyes. I know if I try to pull the rod out of the booster, I'll probably screw it up.
