Looks like when they manufactured it they put the seals on and then staked it. I have no idea why they didn’t use a c-clip or nut. I was thinking of cutting the pedal rod, putting the seals on and welding it back together. I had a second look at it and I think I would need to cut the shaft right where they staked it to avoid damaging the seals during the install. Has anyone had any success customizing the shaft? I’m thinking a good machinist should be able to make something work.

Ah yes I checked out that post before I pulled mine apart. I was just curious if there is any way to replace the two seals where the piston assembly connects to the pedal rod? I believe in the instructions from MBM it says you need to cut the pedal shaft and then find some sort of replacement. However, I don’t think there is anyone out there that makes one. I guess my options are replace all the seals that are covered in the write-up and hope for the best or buy a new hydroboost.

Does anyone know if someone makes a replacement pedal rod/input rod for 2nd gen hydroboosts? I have a staked input rod that needs to be cut in order to replace the seals.
