- We had a car here in the shop that had a problem after a brake rebuild. The pedal was always soft and no matter what we could not get a hard pedal. The owner was crippled in one leg and was very weak

- You can use a remote Girling or Lockheed (type) brake servo. You have a choice of several ratio's from 1,9 to 3 or even more. I did it on a Landrover Series III. Worked great. Kees Oudesluijs NL ____

- Just a reminder to anyone contemplating reducing the clutch pedal pressure by relocating the push rod pick up point or using a smaller master cylinder, there will be an increase in pedal travel requi

- By changing the ratio of the pedal you can increase the amount of pressure that is applied to the master cylinder. So if you raise the attaching location of the master cylinder push rod my 1.2 and in

- There will not be any change in the pedal travel to release the clutch. Since you are not changing anything in the hydraulic system. You are still moving the same amount of fluid from the same size c
