[Mgs] Brake Booster

[dave]

Sounds to me like the calipers need to be rebuilt

Depends to what car you compare Michael.

My 1971 also does not have a booster, but the brakes are working very well and with good “feeling”.

Other parts of the brake system may well contribute to the need of a firmer pressure than expected like:

Brake calliper pistons may be not moving freely

Master cylinder may in need of a service – overhaul

Brake pedal pivot point not working well…

Who has added a brake booster to their MGB or MGB GT which initially did not have one?  Do you have pictures of where you mounted and how you did it.  I just put new pads and rotors on my 69 MGB GT.  It still takes a lot of effort to apply the brakes.
