    Hey guys, how straightforward is a booster delete on a 74? Do you just throw away the booster stuff and bolt thaw master back in?

    wait, what? This is a real thing? I wouldn't mind deleting that monstrosity off my truck, but the stopping power of a 4wd booster on a 2wd truck is kinda nice

    Improve pedal feel and reliability, benefit of removal of booster vacuum, weight (although not much). My car is becoming a track car.

    All youll get is a firmer pedal.

    Id suggest removing the factory parts all together and grab a Wilwood manual MC

    That's what I was thinking, better for the eventual disk brakes too
