they said it was the last one in their system but i got a brake booster 54-73603, the replacement for the bendix unit. although not  a bendix, it is a whole lot better than dragging my feet.  with the core charges, tax and master cylinder it was less than $200.   sometime down the road, maybe i'll be lucky enough to find the real deal.

Glad you got it.   The way Murphy works though, it'd be my luck that one's a dud.  Hope it works out for you. :2thumbs:

Awesome find, I've been looking for months.  :drool5: Now go brake something and quit dragging your feet.  :rofl:

Just FYI, if you have a part like this or anything that can be rebuilt, (dist, calipers, brake boosters ect) NAPA will take your part and send it to A1-cordone and they will rebuild it for you.

If that is the case then NAPA will not be seeing any of my cores as I have found that A-1 Cardone is the WORST when it comes to having stuff rebuilt.  Out of the box the stuff leaks or doesn't work.  Ive had steering boxes, power steering pumps, and master cylinders all either die on me within a month or right out of the box.  Ive found that it is easier just to go to someone reputable who charges the same if not a little less like Booster Dewey or other people who do quality work.  Install it and never have to worry about it again for a long time.  Just my experience, thats all.   :Twocents:

The majority of NAPA parts do not come from A1-Cordone...They just offered that service for a 59 jeep distributor that I needed rebuilt.  Napa's quality on other stuff is second to none.  They cost more but their stuff is not JUNK.
