74 Charger Midland Ross. Took it apart and when the spring sprung parts went flying. Does anyone know where those three little rubber pieces go? There could be four not sure.

When I saw the thread, I was going to suggest to get a 'Pro' to rebuild it for you....but I seem to be a little late for that advice. :rolleyes:

Things like steering boxes and brake components, I prefer to leave to the experts. :thumbsup:
 
There's not a lot to them and the only thing really that can go bad is the diaphragm.

The diagram posted is not the same booster, and the OP's pic does not look like the 73/74 one I refreshed.
 
You still got all your teeth? They have a special press they use to take them apart
and put them back together. If you can, have a rebuilder re-assemble it for you.
Good luck!
 
Every thing came out in one piece. The problem is when it came apart with the spring those little black rubber pieceses went flying so I don't know where they go. The rebuild kit is very simple. Saw that diagram yesterday and it is not the correct one, but thanks. Cannot find one on line anywhere. I am not sure the total number of the rubber pieceses. If there was four I think I would know how they go. I'll go back to the shop and clean up and sweep maybe I'll find another one.
 
Whats the plan for reassembling without injuring yourself or loosing more parts?
Big question if you have the rebuild kit apparently you know what booster it is. Assembly orientation should be available from the parts supplier.
 
Was the rebuild kit missing the instructions?
 
There was no instructions and the kit came from Classic Ind. It is a Midland Ross 10.5 in clamp style. I have looked on line for a tear down or diagram but can't find anything. Hoping someone here had torn one down. I took the prop valve apart and put a kit in it with no problem.
 
Prop valve and brake booster are different crittwrs. Good luck with the booster.
 
I used a "regular" press to keep mine from flying apart and to put it back together.

The correct diagram has got to be somewhere.....

71-74 FSM?

I have a 72 body manual but I doubt it's in there.
 
Called Classic Ind. where I bought it. They said the vendor was Harmon Classic Brake. Called them and they sent me photos on how it goes back together. Took about five minutes and it was finished. Thanks for all the help.
