WTB Bendix dual diaphragm power brake booster

Just purchased and going to restore a 1970 GTX. The first of many parts is a Bendix dual diaphragm power brake booster. Any assistance would be greatly appreciated.

I'm running this one from Pirate Jack's on my 70 Road Runner and I've been very happy with it. I did have to shave about 1mm all around the hole in the firewall (just a "touch" of metal) to get it to fit into the hole.

Thank you. Attempting to find an original booster. It may be my toughest part to find.

are you looking for the power booster for drum or for disc? there are different ones.

 

[classiccar68]

disc

 

[Migsbig]

Ok. Bummer. I had the drum booster. Good luck on your search.

I can take a look after the weekend. I have one, just not sure what it fits. Have some MC that are original Bendix.

Thank you

One I found so far is an A body

It looks like that one shown on Post# 2 from Pirate Jacks would be the one you need. It also has M/C, firewall plate, and bellcrank, all for one price!

I am trying to restore to factory. Like the 68 Charger R/T in the photo, it is going to be a long two to three year process. The booster maybe the most difficult part to find. Thank you

I sent my original 70 Bendix booster to Harmon classic brake to be rebuilt... unfortunately mine was to rusty to be rebuilt. However, they had some nice southern cores on the shelf...I bought a core from them and had them rebuild it. No problem.

 

[classiccar68]

Thank you

 

[classiccar68]

Check with Harmon's. Of course they are out of cores. The search continues. Thank you
