RE: [oletrucks] 55 2nd series brake master clylinder

Almost all of the old truck vendors sell dual master cylinder kits, both
power and non power assisted.  I got mine from Heavy Chevy.  I Know that
Chevy Duty and Brother's also carry them.  

I chose a non-power assisted unit for my truck.  Very happy with its day
to day operation, but it is a b^%#$ to check the fluid level.  If I were
doing it again I'd get a unit with remote reservoirs.  

It doesn't apply to my truck (factory Hydra-Matic), but I have heard
that the stock clutch pedal and linkage is REAL TIGHT around a power
unit.

oletrucks is devoted to Chevy and GM trucks built between 1941 and 1959
