I’ve been working on a prototype adapter to allow for the clean and easy installation of the 1999-2004 Dakota power brake booster in the 1997-1998 Dakota. Doing so provides more room between the engine and booster, as well as providing an additional 43.7% of booster force to the brakes. The mounting bolt pattern is different between the two styles of boosters as the 1999-2004 is wider with an offset upward and to the side. This adapter makes sure you install the brake pedal rod straight and true for optimum performance without binding or misalignment.
