Re: mc rod removal
A new MC, meant for a power brake booster and for discs front/drums rear, won't have an input rod that needs removing.
It should just bolt onto the front of the brake booster.
It's not advised to use the old drum/drum MC on a disc/drum application.
The brake valve should also be changed for one that's designed for discs/drums.

Re: mc rod removal
What do you mean disk drum application. I have drum ft n RR. Used old mc for drum drum. Just added brake booster. Should be fine right.
