I have a 1971 clubman(hydro) and i just bought a a complete servo unit to replace the old peacan. the servo is from a mayfair. so most probably i cant work with the current brake pipes i have... anyone knows anything about this? thanks

what year mayfair? i could be wrong but mayfair's say around 1980ish dont have a servo.

is the survo the type with the master cylinder built in and fits on top of the pedal box? if so you will have trouble with the hydro pipe and you will need to alter the brake pipes.

if its a remote servo (fits any were but on top of the pedal box) then you will still need to alter the brake pipes but can retain the original master cylinder.

pictures say a thousand words

im not realy sure but i think it was from a myfair... anyway yes its with the master cylinder built int the one that fits on the pedal box as you said... so its going to be a big problem.... :(

not a real problem.

swap the pedal box as the brake pedal is different

you may have to cut the hydro hose off the bulkhead and move it a bit, or let the fluid out, piss about alot and alter hydro pipes, then refill with fluid with the special pump.

the brake pedal is attached to a rod that goes up through the box section/bulkhead. this has a rubber seal but it is smaller than the hole. you will need to make a plate to reduce the hole.

then remember the front pipe on the servo goes to the front of the car. rear pipe to the rear of the car. but both need to go via the brake bias valve to reduce rear pressure.

should take 1 day tops.

if you pay my travel costs i'll come and give you a hand.lol
