The Cardone 54-73105 available through Summit gets good reviews. I'd check it when it arrives and ensure it is a re-manufactured and not a hash rebuild.
From the picture it looks like the correct unit, fine thread mount studs and longer for the bracket spacers.
Other sources of Cardone have not been that good. I've seen welded up from other applications to relocate studs etc. One had a recessed master cylinder mount from who knows what and the master cylinder would not bolt up at all. Summit would be scrapping returns and Cardone would be eating the cost, so maybe they provide Summit better quality units???

If originality is a consideration, you may want to contact Booster Dewey about rebuilding your existing unit. Although I have not (yet) used his services, he has established a very good reputation among the AMC community. I'm sure that many Forum members here can back up this claim. Just a thought...

I agree. My personal experience with Cardone boosters has been mixed. Most have worked but I had to return two new ones due to problems.
