[QUOTE="starbiscuit, post: 621656, member: 18416"] I didn't get around to fitting a servo over the winter and events have overtaken the project this year. I was looking at fitting a servo from a late bay, together with master cylinder and brake-pedal push-rod from a late bay, and eventually front disc setup of some sort. But that's complicated by me having an LHD beam in a RHD bus, so there is no servo mounting plate where I need it. It's not too difficult to add a mount, and the Brazilian servo is still available new, although different mounting pattern than late bay. And the can is bigger which might make clearance worse. I also looked at a remote servo kit, which maintains the dual brake circuits by having two servos in one can. Mods are required to brake pipe routing and brake switch wiring, but not difficult. That has the advantage of the freedom to place the servo wherever you have room (the standard location is tight for me due to other mods, especially the Brazilian servo), and is potentially a bolt-on fitment. Google "vw jim servo" to get an idea. HTH [/QUOTE]
