<div dir="ltr">I have used both.  The PBR is a far superior
unit to the Lockheed.  The Lockheed's pressure valve sits
at the bottom of the unit and when it gets wet it can corrode..
making the unit inoperable.  I have no idea why they don't put
a SS sleeve in there, then there would not be a problem<br><br>
Anyway, I've had the PBR on my BJ8 for 30 years, and for various
reasons the car has sat for years from time to time. 
Every time I start it up, the booster works flawlessly.

Well, as you know, they came with Girling units. I had one in my
BT7 MkII, rare for those models. Anyhow, it was disconnected when I
bought the car so I had to rebuild it with a kit. That lasted about
10 years then one of the "new" parts proved to be soluble in brake
fluid and disintegrated. That nearly ended in tears. Another kit,
from a hopefully more reliable source, but I never trusted it.
So.......it was my feeling that, if I couldn't fix a Girling, then
any second hand Girling out there would be unreliable. I elected to
replace it before it let me down again.<br>
Seems that the two most usual substitutes are Lockheed or PBR, the
latter being Australian. I'd heard much better reports for the PBR
so I looked out for one of them. They are very rare, if sold at
all, in the UK. Anyhow, someone imported a BJ8 back here from the
US and found a spare new PBR in the boot (trunk!). I bought that
for a song and fitted it. Easy fit with the supplied brackets.
Works well. I like it. Their model code, for my BT7 at least, is
VH40. I checked that with PBR.<br>
