Hydroboost brakes for M37

Post by Hal O'Peridol »

Has anyone tried to install a hydroboost system similar to that used on the Chevy trucks (1984 to?) on their M37?

Would be good in tandem with a power steering setup.

More Army Surplus stuff than you can shake a stick at.

I have wondered about doing this, but my basic brake system need an overhaul before I think about boosting it. From looking at schematics and photos of hydroboost systems, how do you you add the hydroboost component to our system of pedals and the master cylinder location?
