You can’t change beam to a later one in a 68 as it was a one year only beam and the holes don’t line up. I’m changing to dropped spindles and 72+ late model brakes, Downside is with late model brake the stock lowlight rims won’t fit so you need different wheels

early and late spindles are a straight swap i think the only make is EMPI ? fit late bay brakes for ease of finding parts and the availability of replacing things such as rotors and pads (but its completely a personal choice) most parts stores should sell 73+ disc brake components

I have no idea.. that’s just what was on the bus when I purchased it

I havnt had the time to install it yet.. but I did have a look under the car and I’m not too sure where the best place is to mount it. I’d also like to see where others have mounted it

Seems like fitting a late model unit to the beam is going to involve more work by needing to make cross linkages since mines a RHD 68, so I think I’ll go down the remote path.. although late model boosters are far cheaper

Hi, did you fit the fosseway brakes to drop spindles?

So dual servos are good and all.. but what’s wrong with a normal remote servo with a t splitter and a bias valve installed (for disc/drum combos) would that not work just as well? The benefit is that’s way cheaper and MUCH easier to source parts for.. the dual servos are like £265 in freight...

Hi all, as the topic states.. im looking to install a booster into my 68 Lowlight, i have heard it isnt straight forward, im open to remote and non remote options, if anyone is able to explain how they have managed to do it and also what their results that would be awesome. i have drum brakes...
