I have the vacuum booster on my 2wd Ford CMP, and as Phil has stated, it really makes a difference. The chap I bought the truck from demonstrated it's stopping ability by locking up all 4 wheels at about 40km/h. Hell of a noise, and very dramatic effect. Luckily it was on an isolated road in the country, so only a handful of cows got upset. The booster assembly was totally rebuilt before I bought it, so I didn't have the drama of sourcing the right parts. I was able to use my fellows sources to get right parts ordered to rebuild the one on my restoration vehicle. Alas, that infirmation was lost when my previous computer went west without warning, or I could point you in the right direction for the seals and felt lubricating ring.
