[QUOTE="Graham L, post: 634112, member: 3481"] Cheers for the tag [USER=3541]@sparkywig[/USER] We've fitted both on beam and off beam solutions on a few buses, for the 'on beam' style its easier to buy a servo kit as you need the servo, new MC, bracket for the beam and extended pushrod. You'll need to weld the bracket onto the beam which isn't overly easy with the beam in situ. You'll need to re route the hard brake lines to the new relocated MC and extend the filler pipe. The other option is a dual circuit remote servo set up, these utiise your existing pedal & MC set up but the hard brake lines are rerouted so you go: Original MC>>>Remote Servo>>Front Brakes and the same for the rear, if you mount the remote servo midship on the chassis you can then just break into the rear line, we tend to fit the remote kit more often, I'll get a pic of the remote servo install on my 68 Crewcab Hope that helps and feel free to drop me a PM if you need more info [/QUOTE]
