Dual Circuit Brake Engineering Thread

I just inquired my 88 Air Force truck. I have split brakes as well. Having a hard time finding any parts whatsoever for the split brake system. Do you have any idea where I could find a master cylinder rebuild kit for a post that has some info listed?

Check sweeting performance look at bosh / bendix hydro-max they sell air force style with the reserve and the a3 version with the remote reserve. not cheap but give it a look.

Has anyone plumbed in a gauge at the outlet of the stock airpak and measured the line pressure with a max application? Inquiring minds want to know!

@rustystud ?

Page 15 of this thread has a reply from rusty that says around 800psi, checked by gauge. Glad you asked, I was curious too.

Thank you very much for pointing me to that. There is so much info on these forums, but alas...for some reason i totally suck at the search.

800psi..is both good and surprising. I woulve thought it to be in the 12-1500psi range for sure. This is good news though and greatly simplifies things for what i want to try in another thread. Will make packaging much simpler.
