Thanks S.K. , but it's so hard to have the brake booster removed . Specially , with the roll cage and lateral cross ....
That's why I prefer to keep the stock 2 nuts Booster . To Jondee , Yes , it's correct , but pretty hard to find , as It's getting old and uncommon here . Here's a link to an online shop with parts size and pics . I often use it to compare parts http://login.mongrossiste.eu/mglive/cata...wjaar.aspx it's in french but easy understanding . To Ivan : No didn't measure the difference between both caliper , but I'm sure I need a bigger BMC . I read lots of topics and same conclusion the stock 13/16" is not giving enough fluid . I could sse it when bleeding , not much brake fluid coming out bleeders . I think I need a 15/16" or 1" BMC . The brake pedal is very soft ( and I'm sure of bleeding) . 2 reasons : 1° BMC is to weak to supply enough brake fluid to calipers . 2° the rear brake calipers are bad . The floating caliper is guided on rubber , and even with new ones , it's not well guided (lot of clearance) Just make the experience . Ask a friend to press brake pedal while you're looking at rear brake calipers . You'll see that the first caliper action is to get in place , before piston apply power to pad . That's thre reason why stroke brake pedal is so long . Regards to all Phil Filh Save the RWD cars |
