Bomb rebuild

[Error404]

Anyone got any recommendations for a place that can rebuild my dead brake bomb to as new condition?
Or any pointers where can i get a new Febi unit? CAC don't seem to have them any more

Cheers

Haven't considered about upgrading to vacuum?

[macspring]

What’s involved on an ABY, and is it worth it, compared to having a fresh bomb and power steering pump ?

Thanks.

not interesting in switching to vacuum right now, just after some info on a new/refreshed bomb

If you have a FEBI part No. your local andrew page may be able to track one down for you. If you have the No. post it here as mine might be on its way out

My friend upgraded to A8 brake booster, and says that now brakes respond much better. I have one on my A200, but I had almost dead brake bomb. You need, a brake booster from A8 with to diafragms and to disable the piping for power steering pump

Thing with vacuum brake assistance is.. I'd worry the shi££y one way valve goes wrong and the servo gets 2 bar of boost instead of vacuum, would not be pretty..

Perfect thanks mate. I'll give them a try

I will go vacuum one day, probably once my engine is done. Its just too much messing about at the moment, I've got enough to think about right now

You could probably ask if they can do us a group deal as I am sure there are a few of us in need

ok I'll try and sort out a forum discount as our "preferred supplier"

You could always use 2 or 3 one way valves in series if you paranoid about it, I think I would use 2 just to be on the safe side if I went to vac assist, either that or use a separate vacuum pump altogether.
