I need to know how to reslove my low pedal issue. I have 79 Ford 60's front and rear and I converted the rear to disk. Chevy 3/4 ton calipers. They work but they fade and the pedal is very low. I have searched but I am looking for the solution that works. What do I need to change? MC, proportion valve ect. Thanks for the help.

a larger bore MC is what you need.
I run the 86 E350 with the holes drilled. There are better options.
You will also want an adjustable proportioning valve, willwood, that is for fine tuning, you main problem is the MC.

Im running F350 calipers on all 4.

What would be the best option for a direct replacement MC. The front calipers are the stock 79 ford and the rear are 78 3/4

i heard the 2000 model 1 ton dodge master cylinder is pretty damn close, needing a spacer for the shaft...there is some mc tech at naxja on those.
