I am the proud owner of my first jeep project (resurection). I am going to have to completely replace all of the brake system. Has anyone converted from manual to power brakes on anything similar to this. If so let me know what else is involved besides getting a power booster. I am going to have to replace the master cylinder anyway. Thanks

You can use all factory parts. Nab the master cylinder and booster from a power-brake optioned '76-'86 CJ and bolt it up. Collins Bros. Jeep has new and used ones. Or go for the better dual-diaphram booster from Master Power.
