Ideally I'd like to use a SIII brake booster and pedal box but use the Range Rover master cylinder (as far as I know they seem to have the same fixing point) so I can run the dual circuit system cause I'll need as much braking force as possible. The problem is the Rangie booster is too big to fit under the bonnet.
Commodore m/cyl is dual circuit, i was running otherwise standard rrc discs all round, the car was series2 body on rrc chassis. The brakes were excellent
defender booster will also do what you need

I think I'll crack out the measuring tape and head to the wreckers and see what I can find. Can anyone find a price on a Defender brake box and booster (new or secondhand) and possibly a Stage 1.
just what your afterQuote:

Puma one with a Booster, but shipping will be high, better to find a booster here.

someone local would have one, why dont you put an ad in the Wanted section
Thanks for the ebay finds, I think I'll have a look at the SIII cause i know that'll fit the easiest and will be the cheapest seeing as i'm on a low budget.
hi mate. just wondering what engineer you ended up using and how your getting on with the project. i have a few rangie bits if your ever chasing anything in albany.
cheers, Mat
Thanks for the offer, do you have a flywheel cover for the lt95 cause thats missing on mine. I've found a brake pedal box to suit the Series 3 with a booster setup but it doesn't have a booster but I can find one of then pretty easily. I haven't got an engineer yet but I'm probably going to have to go to Perth for the engineer but I just printed the modifiers application form today and I've been looking through it. It needs to be approved by the department of transport first then inspected by an engineer then it still has to go over the pits to be registered. Big process but fairly straight forward and I'm goin to contact the department tomorrow and see what else I need to do. I haven't done much with the vehicle since the last time but the next job is the rear crossmember and the front of rear tub mounts.
There are two or three versions of that cover you're looking for, and a couple of the bolts have a tapered shank, so make sure everything's right before you go to bolt the thing in place.
When I called the Department of Transport last year they said there was a two-month wait once you've sent your form in, so make sure you get onto it sooner rather than later.
I'll have to get more of the car together before I enter the form cause theres a few measurements that I need to complete the form. It seems fairly straight forward but I'm gonna give them a call soon and ask a few questions that might be the biggest struggle getting through to someone who knows what I'm talking about.
After you receive "approval in principle" you have about 2 years until the approval expires and you have to re-submit the application. I have about a year left with heaps left to do :eek:
