Re: Question! 2 long rams



When changing from power to manual brakes on my '63 Fury I found that the firewall mounting plate is drilled different for power vs. manual. Your plate is drilled to mount the booster, mine was a Bendix. The booster is made to mount the MC. If you find a manual plate fine, if not I used the top 2 holes in the plate to mount the MC, then drilled 2 new holes for the lower mount. I also had to raise the opening for the pushrod. My brake pedal was drilled for lower hole power brakes, upper hole for manual. When moving the pushrod to the upper hole the brake light switch had to be relocated.
 
The photo attached shows raising the MC and how much of the original pushrod hole had to be covered up, outlined in white. You may want to think about upgrading your MC at the same time.

Jason,
 
Why don't you change your subject to Long Ram Questions so we can keep it separate from the sway bar topic. I've made this switch from power to manual and I can let you know what I ran into if it helps.

Ok my fine friends!  I started my long dreamt of project.  Long rams on my 62 Newport 

Here are a pic or 2.    Problem is that I have to eliminate power brakes to make room for the rams.   I've pulled the booster out and am trying to figure out what to do about mounting the master back to the fire wall.  And mostly wunder if anyone has the manual parts so I don't have to "Rigg it" if you catch my drift.  I really want oem parts. Mostly cause I would trust it better.  Now I'm headed to my buddy's where more than 4 Newport live and or reside but the grass is as tall as the cars.  And I think they are all power.  Any one willing to help a brother out?   Thanks for the thoughts 
Jason

 Nick, yes there was welding involved (brackets to K-member) but you may be able to bolt the brackets by drilling K memeber and threading the holes but I don't think I would recommend that as there is lot of stress on the bar going around corners etc.  Can't evaluate as car is not on the road yet but it does fit quite nice, engine runs but it is down the pecking order on projects.

Nico,
 

 

If this is the Firm Feel unit was there any welding involved, or is it all nuts and bolts. And of course the obvious question, does the Firm Feel...feel firm, would you recommend this unit.

 Jay, take a look at these pics, borrowed a friends camera. Bracket is still hard to see as the whole K-member is powder coated black. Nico
