[Healeys] throwing out BJ8 Girling boosters

[Tom McCay - Classic-Car-World Ltd]

If the parts are repairable I would always try and save them. Here in the UK there is a company called Past Parts http://www.pastparts.co.uk/ who will repair most brake parts. I’ve recently had a master brake cylinder re-sleeved from my MGA which was done with stainless steel sleeves and looks very impressive.



Kindest Regards

Very unwise to throw away defective parts of classic cars. I always keep the old parts, unless they are copletely knackered and unrepairable. Most of the time I find I, or some other enthousiast can refurbish them later. Especially hard to find or nla original parts that are worn are kept. I have been able to help many people this way.
Often with a bit of ingenuity these items can be brought back to full service life.

Is it a PBR? The new one I mean. I find mine requires more pedal effort than the original- when it was working.

I am liking my new Aussie power brake booster. Are my two old ones worth anything? One is not rebuildable without sleeving.

I am hoping to just toss them.
