G'day All

Could someone please tell me what are the requirements for changing over from a standard brake booster to the bigger XU-1 unit?

And does the calipers also have to be changed over.

I don't think so but a friend of mine has an LJ 4 door with disc brakes and wants to change over to the larger booster.

His motor is worked and I think that the standard brakes are already quite good enough for his every day driving situation.

Regards...............................Barry.

Barry,

I thought the XU1 booster just meant you don't have to push the pedal as hard for the same output. You can swap it over no problem (mine had a UC booster when I got it, now has a standard LC booster), just make sure it's adjusted correctly for the master cyl. eg: doesn't drag when brake pedal is off.

Cheers,
