    I would like to upgrade from the existing original single to a dual. I did a search and did not see the options for just a master cylinder upgrade. Most were disc conversions. What are the options for dual cylinder upgrade? Thanks

    Can't talk about the mount, but,
    For some reason the 68-71 CJ MC's are horribly expensive. I adapted a 72 into my 71 when I had to replace mine. The brake line compression fittings were different (you would have to replace your brake lines anyway since you would have to add the front system) and I had to use the original pushrod, but other than that it was a relatively simple swap.
