Where to buy drum brakes ??
Suggest you look at using a separate tapping (or tappings) for the
brake booster. Otherwise you will be sending the ECU a "false" reading
each time you use the brakes. Probably not a biggie unless you are
using the "heel and toe" driving technique Smile

Deleting the brake booster will most likely mean re-engineering the
braking system. Disc brakes are not self-energising, so if you just
delete the booster without changing anything else, the pedal effort will
be high !!!

Try driving with the vacuum hose disconnected if you want to get an
idea of how high... but allow extra braking distance !!!!
