Not the booster but it is recommended that you change master cylinders.

Thanks rx7doctor for the info.....I will do that.....

prop valve for sure.

MY FB 2

Which one and where is it located....

kgray

brake proportioning valve from the LSD car. It is right off of the master cylinder, so if you get a new master cylender, get one with the proportioning valve.

Looks similar to that.-------------------------------------------------------------------^

its debatable if you do, but since itd be so cheap and easy to get, id say do it.

did you get new brake lines? cause 81-85 have a different thread pattern than 79-80.

kgray

Despite the contradictory views on necessity, there is, indeed, a difference between the two internal springs and possibly more. Coarse to fine thread adapters are also needed for the brake lines.

you dont need adapter.

RB and mazdatrix, i think, sale kits for 79-80 with 81-85 brakes. that or you can get 81-85 hard lines in the engine bay, 81-85 master cylinder and prop valve, and then get just the rear line from the body to axle custom.
