The double flare tool is NOT expensive. It was about 7 years ago I bought mine but it was maybe 20 bucks. And as I recall I was able to make a perfect bubble flare with it too. I first used it to ma

The Tiger I just recently bought has no brake booster. When I was looking at it I was thinking that replacing the same should be one of my first projects. Now, however, I am pretty used to it the way

Hi Jim, thanks for the reply. I take it that you have done this in a real world situation. That is you have changed to a smaller bore master cyl. and had it work better. I'm still not convinced. reg

Odds are if you are loosing brake fluid, your booster is shot and sucking the fluid into the vacuum can. It will continue sucking the fluid until the can is so full that when you release the brake p

Been there. Done that. With the brake booster. I've successfully rebuilt a few, but the rebuild only lasts about 12 years. SS has rebuild kits but CAT lists them too. They also list a brake booster

I reccommend replacing all of the brake rubbers and replacing the fluid with silicone brake fluid. It works well with the "real" rubber parts and the worry for paint distortion dissipates. Chris in

Sorry, O.M., but "the Palmer" is absolutely correct, assuming you haven't changed the brake cylinders. Force = Pressure times Area. If you even look at the units of measure, Force is Pounds force, P

So right, And again, the by pass hose is ONLY intended as an emergency device and NOT as a permanent item. If the car was intended to use a permanent by-pass, then they would never have put a booster
