Anybody know where I can get the correct brake master cylinder push rod that goes to the brake pedal for a 72 Cuda with a manual transmission and manual brakes? I converted from an automatic transmission and the push rod is too short.

Transmission swap has nothing to do with the brakes

Thats's what I was thinking but my push rod that hooks to the brake pedal is 1/4" too short.

so wait. you changed the transmission. did you change the master cylinder too? whats the difference?

One of the Co that offer disk brake kits should be able to help you , Or find any A, B body with manual brakes for the correct rod

I got the brake pedal, clutch pedal, hanger and rods from a 1970 Challenger with power brakes. The brake push rod from the Cuda manual brakes is too short to fit the replacement pedal

So start checking the junkyards... An A body would probably be easier to find with manual brakes... Still sounds strange As I remember the Power Brake pedal linkage is attached to the booster ??
Pedal height will change from power to manual
