Remote brake servo

What is a brake servo kit? Suitable for all single-line brake circuits they are remote mounted and easily plumbed into the hydraulic and vacuum systems of the car. Add to compare list Add to wishlist. Exhaust Strap 88mm. Vacuum Hose 10mm Id Per Metre.

This single circuit remote brake servo kit enables the fitment of a remote brake servo to cars which do not have one, and enables the easy replacement of non-operating obsolete servos. Measures approx 224mm length by 189mm diameter. UNF inlet and outlet. MGB lockheed type remote servo.

View Basket Made by a large specialist braking manufacturer, this is the only remote twin circuit (dual circuit) servo that we know of. Servo assistance comes in as the brake line pressure increases to a max of 1. LOCKHEED TYPE REMOTE BRAKE SERVO 1. Remote Brake Servo Engine running, brakes not applied. KIT TRIUMPH FORD SUNBEAM AUSTIN MG MORRIS. The vacuum servo unit is incorporated into the hydrautic braking system, remote from the master cylinder, as an in- termediate stage operating between the master cylinder and the brake assemblies.

The two main parts of the servo unit consist ot the vacuum servo mechanism and the hydraulic slave cylinder assembly. The non-return valve is installed in the hose between the brake servo and the intake manifold or the vacuum pump of the vehicle’s engine. When the engine is switched off, the valve closes to maintain vacuum in the brake servo , storing brake-assisting energy until the engine is restarted. Every Dual Circuit Brake Servo is checked over before dispatch. Correctly rigging the Lockheed (after market) single circuit remote brake servo.

RATIO MADE IN UK. Model MGB, TR TR TR3A, TR TR4A. The remote brake servo has a single input and output.

IIRC, the only remote servos that are now readily available are the ones made by AP Lockheed. We can also offer a reconditioning service for classic car brake servos and boosters. Please Contact us for details. If a remote servo sticks on then either the hydraulic piston that operates the air valve is sticking or the air valve itself isnt sealing properly.

AP LOCKHEED REMOTE BRAKE SERVO , 4. POWER BOOSTER, Remote , HOW IT WORKS - BT-201K When you start the car, vacuum enters the booster and is applied equally to both sides of the servo main diaphragm, holding it in balance. A spring holds the main diaphragm in the rest position. When you depress the brake pedal the master cylinder adds (medium) hydraulic pressure to the system. The vacuum servo unit Is incorporated into the hydraulic braking system, remote from the master cylinder, as an intermediate stage operating between the master cylinder and the brake assemblies. If you notice loss of brake function from loss of flui it is suggested that you pinch off the vacuum hose between intake manifold and servo to prevent fluid being sucked into the vacuum chamber of the servo.

Then refilling the master cylinder may give you manual braking function enough to drive carefully to safe haven were you can get the servo repaired or replaced. Well the servo fitted in great front nearside engine bay floor, and plumbed into the inlet manifol and the new remote header tank is fitted to the offside edge of the battery box. I have also araldited up the breather hole in the master cylinder, ready for the remote tank to be plumbed in. I want to fit a servo. I see that they come with one length of ready-made hydraulic pipe which is intended to run back from the servo to the (5?) way connector on the right hand inner wheel arch.

THe present master cyl to connector piupe is then reformed to feed across to the servo. I think my existing pipe looks too short. Maybe the PO-who.
