Elherbinator Posted June 20, 2022 Report Share Posted June 20, 2022 Installed a new master cylinder and proportioning valve. The only thing left if this doesn’t fix my braking issue would be the booster, but I don’t see how that could be the issue. jaimymac and Jethro 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Most of the time on hydroboost its bad fluid or the ps pump is dead or not for a hydroboost .What are your symptoms? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Doesn’t stop well, slows down ok. Feels like I can’t get enough pressure on the brakes. The pedal isn’t hard to depress. I can push it to the floor and still don’t get much stopping power Edited June 20, 2022 by Elherbinator Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MHARTD4 Posted June 20, 2022 Report Share Posted June 20, 2022 Installed a Gobi rack. It took 7 months wait but its worth it. Just need to decide roof light setup. OldCarSmell, jaimymac and El Chapomint 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am still running my pump and module without ABS & works great! just trying to help.I bought it with the brake system already hacked up. It hasn’t worked since I have had it. It has hydroboost and had a Massey Ferguson MC and am unknown proportioning valve. It also had super corroded calipers and hard lines at the wheels. I have since changed out everything but the hydroboost Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Elherbinator Posted June 20, 2022 Report Share Posted June 20, 2022 Serves me right. I should have known better than to buy a vehicle from some sketchy dude in Walnut Grove. First warning sign was seeing a burnt up Land Rover sitting in the driveway. Second was unusually large supply of White Claws yokrieger, Jethro and El Chapomint 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LP Rover Posted June 22, 2022 Report Share Posted June 22, 2022 Well, what I did today was kicked myself for being a D2 owner. I'm now shopping for a short block. As luck would have it, the 2018 Western National Land Rover Rally rig is in need of a new engine. Why is that you might ask -- wasn't it a rebuilt engine? Very good questions for which I have no answers. What I do know is that I've got a lot of shop time into a bad engine block (so that's going to be a few grand), have machined heads, and am in need of a short block. Please let me know if you have any leads. . . . Mr.BlueSky 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Do you take a different one out every day, or, is the trickle charger a must? no! the Classics have been sitting a lot lately! but under car covers ... the 08 (my Wife's) get's driven on friday's and the weekend... she has a 15 Golf TDi Wagon that is her commuter . I drive a Supercharged Mini Cooper S for a commuter which is a blast to drive. figured out we have 4 forced induction vehicles now.. I plan to drive the new purchase maybe once a week to work and use it on the weekends but that is usually reserved for my 25th. I have a rodent problem currently that needs to be stopped! they chewed up my registration in the 25th and made nests in the heater blower which involved me removing the entire cowl and creating a cover over the intake as it is stupidly exposed to the elements. see you guys on the trails. thx Edited June 24, 2022 by SLOHybrid Mr.BlueSky 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I recommend a Rover cat On the trickle charger side of things, I've found that as long as the electrical is in tip top shape, I haven't needed one on the classics. Snowflake (sadly) can go about two-three months without a startup. Fires every time. Eleven on the other hand almost always needs a charge within a week.
