Fitting a Brazilian Brake Servo

[Middleton]

When fitting a Brazilian brake servo I thought the only additional work required was to adapt the mounting bracket (as described in Johnny's sticky: http://forum.earlybay.com/viewtopic.php?f=31&t=58569). However, the following video shows a great deal more work involved:

Does anyone have any idea why the guy in the video needed to do all of that extra work?

Thanks!
Ben

It looks like the video is showing how to change from a non-servo setup to a servo'd setup.
If you're just replacing an original servo you should only need to adapt the bolt holes to suit ;o)

Ahhh that explains it! Thanks Al

I replaced mine with a Brazilian and all I did was make a new bracket and weld it on.

On one website, the servo and master cylinder are available together for £188 or separately for £144.90 (£89.95 + £54.95). Is there any advantage to buying them together?
