AX brake booster conversion plumbing

Unread post by jsp »

hi all,

I am converting my non brake boosted ax to one with brake booster.

I have one issue and that is the left front wheel brakes very retarded while the right wheel brakes instantly.

I have bleeded all throughly but, no brakes on my front left wheel.

Here is the brake lines I have set up:

RF LR

RR LF

What have I done wrong?

Not exactly a normal problem! Have you taken a servo and master cylinder from a servo'd car and fitted it to a non servo car? Are the calipers the same? Presume you have fluid at the caliper that is not working? Does it work if you clamp off the other hoses?

Sorted. Connected the wrong rear lines on the wrong side on the main cylinder. working now without issues.
