Use a hacksaw

Would be be possible to delete the red part when modifying the clevis.

In for a clevis if they go into production.

Have had some issues the past weeks. Trying to find a good method to produce these things in series.

Will keep it posted on this thread.

Pepijn - Sounds good - family issues are always priority #1.

Didnt have any time to test fit it yet. But I am assuming it would fit like the TS's his self constructed part.

Will let you guy's know when the parts are finished.

Got some family issues atm, so hopefully will get at it next week.

Count me in as interested!

Pepijn - that is a good looking piece. Are you pleased with the fitment/alignment of the booster rod with this part? I assume that you moved the booster over .5" like the original poster did?

If you are thinking of making a run of parts I would be interested.

[Pepijn]

If people are interested, I made a clevis from a solid piece of steel. This doesn't require a weld, so it is much stronger.

Back from the dead...

Thinking of moving the stock booster for my swap based on this thread. The brakes on my E30 feel perfect and I don't want to risk loosing this with a different booster.

Everyone who's done this still happy with the set-up?

I will be having a friend TIG the two clevis pieces together to get good penetration and control the heat.

I had a spare booster and clevis rod which I intended on chopping in half like the OP did.. But when it came down to it, I couldnt remember where I stuck the spare booster.. so I just whipped up the clevis piece out of some scrap stock that was laying around. Theres no binding at all.
