compensator brakes/axle, 306 estate

Post by windy84 »

hi here we go again ive bought a replacment axle from the internet for my 1999 306 diesel estate abs drums ,but.. the axle ive bought has no compensator.. the idea is to take my one, and attch it to the new one through holes provided..ok but what if the intenet axle was not from an estate which would prove no good...so to cut to the short DID ALL 306 ESTATES HAVE COMPENSATORS
cheers paul

I do not have access to any data at the moment, although from memory models with ABS do not have a compensator fitted as its there to reduce brake pressure to the rear wheels when heavily loaded to stop them locking. With ABS there's not really the same effect as you cannot 'lock' them.

I could be wrong (sorry) but that's what my memory suggests...
