Brake linkcage to short need suggestions

[jbhall2010]

Hey yall im converting to power brakes on my 83 CJ7 . I installed a new booster today and when i connected my brake pedal my brake lights came on and stayed on. From what i have researched i need a longer linkcage, but where do i find one? Thanks for any advice.

some people have cut the brake rod and threaded it, screwed a coupling onto it and threaded the other end of the brake rod so that they can make adjustments easily

If you thread it, make sure you use jam nuts on each end so it won't move.

I cut it and used a sleeve. Determined the length and welded it.

Your choice - either will work.
