Brake booster rebuild ?

I always rebuilt my own, they are not hard to do, pretty simple devices unless it has the crimped rim then you might need a pro with a machine to do it.
 
I’ve had 3 done this past year with Power Brake Booster Exchange aka booster’s Dewey & Steve. Their work is top notch.
 
i cancelled an order and paypal refunded and still got no response
 
I usually do my own as well. I currently have a 10 1/2" Midland that needs rebuilding but the rebuild kits from Classic Industries have been on backorder for months and I have scoured the Web trying to find one with no luck. I am at loss as to where to obtain one. Any suggestions?
 
If you are asking me, no I don't know where you can find any rebuild kits. Its been awhile since I rebuilt one so I am out of touch with sources plus the current parts shortage seems to be affecting everything. I have however bought a replacement booster and gutted it to rebuild a stock one for a guy once.

These days I am pretty much done with boosters for my cars, I am going Hydroboost for my future builds.
 
I can recommend the Power Brake Exchange in San Jose CA. They did the booster for my 70 Challenger, powder coating it black. Works and looks great. They have a lot of experience with the e body boosters as they had two more in work while mine was being done.
 
I bought a remanufactured master cylinder from the The Ram Man in Texas for my 70 challenger with front disk brakes. Had no issues with the master or with their customer service.
 
Well obviously someone doesn't like hydroboost systems... or perhaps its the buying a new booster to rebuild another.. Oh well...guess everyone has an opinion :lol:
