    (sorry!) Another question about brakes....

    Hi I'm biting the bullet and removing the servos from my car, but I'm having trouble deciding on master cylinder sizes (I've read loads of threads on here, but thats left me with more questions than answers, hence this post). My setup is pretty common (i think), so would be great to hear from...

    KVA chassisnumber

    Where is it stamped on the chassis, and can you identify it by its number. My number SFAFXXBABFBB with 5 digits According to the V5, august 1th 1981 I don't have the chassis with the drum brakes. It has two coil-over shocks on each side on the back. 7 posts to go and I can upload pics.

    Stuck Brake Calipers?

    Has anyone experienced the residual pressure (2lb) valves holding enough pressure to engage the brakes sufficiently to limit wheel rotation (wheels are very, very hard to turn). I even disconnect the axle to isolate the wheel hub, etc. My back two wheels are being impeded by the brakes. So...

    Brake conundrum

    Hi All, first time on forum so please forgive ignorance. I am preparing my B.in.L's GTD40 for the road/track after being unused for 10 plus years. The car was built, mainly by me in 1992 so was kit prior to that. I am trying to identify the type of brakes used at the front. They are Girling, pad...

    Trailer Brake Controller?

    Here's an appropriate topic for "The Paddock". Now that my wife bought a horse, she wants to get a horse trailer. That means I'll need to add an electric brake controller to my Toyota Tundra pickup truck. I started doing some research and there appears to be three types of controllers...
