Brake booster question

[motto]

The Studebaker US6 vacuum servo works quite differently to the CMP unit. It uses a remote control valve in the pedal linkage, not a built in valve. If the diameters are the same some parts may be common but I don't think that is the case.
Be aware that there are servos around that look similar to the CMP unit but push instead of pull.

Quite a while ago I literaly stumbled over a booster at that yard where all good metal congregates before it goes to meet its maker.

It kept calling me "to take it home as it could come in handy"

It kept occuring to me that it was handy, but where? and then it came to me

With a gentle push the diaphram fits nice into the trucks booster can and I think with a trim it will be worth a test

What do you think?

So boyed with enthuasium again, I rushed to the lathe and made up this collet and soon had the end out of the control

And the other end to get at the valves

Now to clean it all up, locate a softer diaphram and test it
