Wanted: TF Brake Booster & Mounting Bracket
« on: February 09, 2011, 02:37:05 PM »
Hi People,

Just after a TF Brake Booster (with push-rod) & Mounting Bracket if anyone has one to sell. Must be from a TF Cortina.

Cheers

They are extremely hard to come by in good condition.My suggestion is take to a brake specialist and get your one rebuilt if you have one already.
I got mine done through Hoppers Stoppers her in Melborne it is expensive but well worth it.
I used quite a few second hand ones and had drama after drama to the point that i had to drive home from work approx 30 ks in the dark using the hand brake after complete brake failure.
Also worth noting that there are 2 different sized push rods on th TFs.

Just mainly wanted a second booster as a spare to rebuild whilst still being able to use the car, and the bracket was for a 2v head conversion ....and yeah, i've had problems with brake boosters in my falcon so i know where you are coming from.  :banghead: Good cortina parts are so hard to come by now-a-days.  

I didn't know that there was two differnt sized push-rods in the Tf. Thanks for the info its much appreciated. :D
