OK, I found a supplier who had these in stock so I could look at the booster , VERY disapointing , did not look the same as the one that came out of my 75 02 , the out side looked as if had been sand blasted and was not repainted just bare steel with rust showing in the bottom of some of the pits!! With the lack of quality on the outside I have no hope for the quality on the inside. I am having my orginal booster rebuilt , about $200 , I would recomend you do the same before buying this Centric part and sending your better rebuildable orginal booster back as a core .

I purchased a pair of "rebuilt by Centric" calipers a few years ago. They both leaked. Garbage.

No personal experience but, not heard good things about Centric
