Default Did the 1 ton Wheel Cylinder mod and now

The truck stops waaaaaaaaaaaay better than it ever has.
But the pedal has to be depressed twice as much as before to get the brakes to grap.
They are bled well as I used speed bleeders and pumped 1 quart through to flush the rear clean.

My question is this:
Is there a differant master cylinder that will bolt in to raise the pressure to make the pedal feel better.
Jegs has one that looks like it may fit that claims to do just that.
What about one from a 3/4 ton truck??

Thank You for any help you can give.

I can't say, as I've never heard of anyone doing the GM cylinder swap on a 1/2 ton before. [&:]

You could try the 3/4 ton master cylinder. It should be a bolt in deal.

I looked and the 3/4 and 1 ton show the same master cylinder as the 1/2 ton??

The mopar performance piece looks like a bolt in part?
