REBUILDING THE BRAKE BOOSTER

I am looking for a rebuilt brake bootser and master cylinder for my 63 starfire or a place that does this work. New to this so still learning where to go for things.

i had mine sent out and rebuilt for my 65 olds dynamic 88. it cost me like 150.00 not including labor for them to put it back on etc. i was not thinking at the time but it would have been a lot cheaper to buy a new one and put it on myself. if you do a search on internet you will find new boosters. i have seen them new for around 90.00. good luck chris

i dont know for sure, but if you just do a search for a "63 olds starfire brake booster" it should take the guessing game out of it and do the search for you. chris

Brake booster info

I was going through Hemmings the other night and found several rebuilders call Booster Dewey 503-328-8882 125.00 3 day turnaround. There were several to choose from with about the same rates. He's been in Hemmings along time.

The reason I am asking is I have a good booster on My 57 Olds that I will be selling when I do my disk brake conversion and will give it to anyone who is willing to pay the shipping or lives close enough to Bothell, WA to pick it up
