you do not need to change master cylinders.

Swap and go!
Don't even have to swap calipers, they are basically the same. Some 3/4 have a little bigger one, but don't think it's much of a difference. I did the 1/2 to 3/4 swap and kept the old 1/2 calipers, stopped fine.

all prerry much the same.until you get one ton and bigger it will push enough fluid.

I can stop my 1 tons with a Suzuki Samurai brake booster and a Camaro Master cylinder with no problem, and my rig weighs 4200 pounds on 42s

Did you just add the camaro MC onto the front of the sammy B/B?? If so what M/C? I have 88 sami and brake M/C keeps blowing out.

I think a late 70's early 80s Camaro works.

You just have to widen the two bolt holes a little bit.
