Took this under the truck and there is no room for the unit under the truck in the front. That is why Cameron made up one to come out the rear where there is lots of room. The master cylinder is crammed next to the frame you have to trim a ear down for it to go one. Not even a good room to bring out the lines with out special close pre made 90s and the PTO Drive Shaft takes up more room and the other problem is the front axle needs to pivot on bad bumps. So bringing up the push rod to me is the way to go above the frame. I used up my fire wall with electrical stuff to change out the pedals and go thru it strait. I might be able to use the back of the curve on the brake pedal to do it also? But then again might not have the leverage or be able to adjust the length of throw to operate the Hydro bellows. I can do this with linkage coming up with angles and center it to the unit. Kind of tricky to do but possible just not sure how hard yet till I get some parts here. Anything else would just be guessing how it will do it. I need to lay out strap steel on a bench to figure the throws, angles and lengths to keep it in perspective and not make it to hard to push making the whole thing useless or having a pedal throw of a few inches but it makes the other end do a full push. Even if you came up with a strait rod it would take putting the master cylinder on the bumper to line it up and not have the angles to sharp. Still you may need to tilt the hole system to have it push right. Easier to do it with linkage.
