Tree Farmer brake master cylinder is the same as the one used on some Ford trucks of that era. Last time I checked both the master cylinder and small brake cylinder in the drum were still available new but it took some searching to come up with the correct Raybestos part numbers. I redid mine in the late 90's...still works but have to add fluid now and again.
@greatnorthernn-3154 I figured out that the issue wasnt the master cylinder, the arm that comes off the back of the brake pedal arm, dropped off the plunger on the master cylinder completely so the brake pedal was literally sitting on the firewall, I corrected this by drilling a hole in the dash and putting a bolt through it and double nutted both sides to hold it in place so the brake pedal can only come out just far enough to disengage with no slop. This keeps the rod held on the plunger. I believe the brake master, and cluth master are the same thing. I replaced the clutch master with Dorman I got o. Amazon for $60, then discovered they make rebuild kits for them after the fact. Currently waiting on a rebuilt transmission, mine moves but pops out of first when pulling a load climbing the hills here, I believe I used 8 of my 9 lives on that popping out of gear. So I'm waiting on a rebuilt one. Thanks for watching. I recently started posting content again.
Hopefully you will be able to figure it out. As you definitely need brakes in your property with that steep hill

Brakes seem important
I don’t have any of those parts only thing I have is a pedal. Everything else is missing on my C5. Haha. But I don’t put the forwarder on any hills
