Dont they have aftermarket brackets that angle the rear coil to clear booster?

 

Although that looks like needs chopping lol.

 

With ya on cheap tyres gouged the sidewalls 1st time doing doughies in storage unit carpark…car was bit too low & diff off centred grrr

 

Nice tidbit of info about vz boosters there

Had to chop/angle the last coil bracket on the VR Lexcen with the VZ Booster ..

Ian.

So you recommend a vz booster over the VT? If so I’ll starting looking for one. Remember I don’t have abs too.

What reservior lid is that?

[cava454Moderator 93 VR BT1 View build HERE Member since: February 20, 2015 Posts: 2 390]

Ok so I searched the Vz booster mate.

Im assuming yours is vz booster and master? Should I be buying a ute one?

[Anonymous View build HERE Member since: January 1, 1970 Posts: 0]

Yep VZ Master and Booster Cav.

ABS doesn’t make any difference, for your rear Drums you’ll need to run an RPV (residual pressure valve) pretty sure you can buy an inline one as you won’t get a VZ Master with one.

I just made the stop bracket to suit it’s not a big job.

Hmmm never knew I needed that. I’ll suss the inline one. Not that I know what I’m looking for. Lol

They hold a couple of PSI of pressure in the wheel cylinders to keep the shoes out close to the drum so you don’t get a long pedal.

Interesting mate. Never knew about these. One on each drum I assume.

[Anonymous View build HERE Member since: January 1, 1970 Posts: 0]

Normally they’re in the Master cylinder ports where the lines screw in so yeah you’ll need 2 of them, this is “the” difference between a Disc/Disc brake Master and a Disc/Drum brake Master!

If you have both rear drums fed from a single master cylinder port then you only need one RLPV in that line (somewhere before the T-piece on the diff).

If you have split circuits for each individual wheel then yes, you will need one in each line to the rear drums.

Good to know Andrew. I’ll only need one then. In that add they say 10psi needed for drums. I’ll do some more solid investigating and work it all out.

Why drum brakes on the rear?  That’s 1900’s tech…..

Cause my diff is that short lol.

How much narrower is it?

[cava454Moderator 93 VR BT1 View build HERE Member since: February 20, 2015 Posts: 2 390]

Short as you can go without moving the mount points.

[ImmortalityParticipant 97 HSV Senator 185i 02 VX L67 Calais View build HERE Member since: August 31, 2015 Posts: 535]

You must be looking to fit some big ass rims, doing tubs?

If you are going to all this trouble why not fit something like the tubular 4 link coil over setup from McDonald Bro’s ?
