Brake Pedal Tension Springs?

[THE COLONEL]

Well I got my Brake Boosters rebuilt, and reinstalled in The Colonel.  Here is my question.  I have two tension springs, and can't figure out where they go.  I do know of the one (longer one) that hooks onto the main middle neck of the pedal, but what and where does that hook on to?  Is there a standard spot for it?  The next spring (shorter spring) is hooked under the dash, but what does that one hook to on the pedal assembly? 

When I was taking the assembly out I bumped the springs, and now can't figure out what and where they hook on to.  Thanks in advanced!

Anyone have any pics they can shoot?

I'd LOVE a picture of your assembly and (assuming you have power brakes) how far your brake pedal is from the floor (see my other post for my brake issues)

I *believe* that the spring that attaches to the center rod, there is a square slot at the top of the pedal assembly that it attaches to. Just put one end through the top, the other end on the rod.

I don't have a second spring so I'm not sure where it goes but I'd love to find out!

Good luck!

Also - any chance you could tell me how long the rod is that comes out of the back of the booster?

I'll get a picture of teh assembly today sometime.  As far as the rod in the back of the booster, it's about 3 -3.5 inches long.

I hopefully wil be able to do this this week.  the weather will be in the 60's.  It's been so darn cold here.

Mine only had one spring.  Here are some pics of disassembly.

One more.  They are a little small, but I think you can see where the spring goes.

Hmmm...Ive never seen that spring.  I wonder what its function is? 

I dont have one on my conversion & my brakes work fine....I think

Sorry forgot pic.

Well, I missed that spring.  I guess I have three.  I got that one back on.  Now I have one that is attached to a metal plate under the dash, but I don't know where it goes, and then another one that originates from the middle neck of the brake pedal, and I don't know where the other end of that one goes?

Mine is a 68 so it could be different.

Don't know if it makes any difference, but mine is a power drum brake car.

I thought we discussed it earlier this year in another thread.
