I have a 2007 Tahoe. My MC was leaking fluid into my booster and ruin it. Replaced both. Good brakes but noticed the brake pedal is higher than before. Parts guy said it was the right one and it was a newer style. There is no adjustment on the rod. Stop’s good. Any ideas? Thanks for your time.

What is your VIN? What are your "J" codes in your RPO Sheet? I can double check the application 2-ways.
Welcome to the forum from Oregon.
When you say higher, how much higher are you talking about? Did you compare length at the attaching rod for the brake pedal?

Does it have GM’s adjustable pedal assembly that may have mucked up what you’re used to?
With brake pistons and clutch slaves, they can also give a high pedal effect immediately after replacement. Give it a week or two and it’ll likely settle in.
For now you can research the part numbers against your vin and see if there’s any other compatible parts that are spec’d differently.

I had this happen to me when I replaced the booster. The issue was that the new booster did not have the spacer that goes between the booster and the firewall and in my haste did not notice. Had to take it back off and get a replacement and made sure it had the spacer. Fixed the issue.
