Re: Mk1 servo kit

Re: Mk1 servo kit
I was pretty disappointed in the JL Spares service and content of the kit, considering the price. I also ordered (and was charged) for a new pushrod that has never arrived. They were very poor at answering e-mails and I ended up having to ring them several times to get some action. That was a waste of time because I was told utter BS regarding when they were sent. All in all, not a great experience and I would not recommend them. Trouble is, I know of no alternative.

Re: Mk1 servo kit
The MK1 S Brake booster was the same one used on Alfa Romeo GTV1750s or 105s except made by Bonaldi.

Check the actual specs of the bore and valving etc before though.
Minisport here in Australia sell exchange units http://minisport.com.au/mini-mk1-cooper ... -all-minis
Hydroboost in Australia do the work too..http://www.hydroboost.com.au/index.htm
hope this helps.

Re: Mk1 servo kit
This lot reconditioned a Mk1 servo for me so they must have access to the bits

An alternative if nothing else.

Ive got a bonaldi on mine. Works just fine, although mines not a proper smini63 wrote:The MK1 S Brake booster was the same one used on Alfa Romeo GTV1750s or 105s except made by Bonaldi.

The main body is Alu on mine where I think the lockheed where iron.

Re: Mk1 servo kit
Though not inexpensive, there is also the firm in the link below if you want someone else to handle the servo rebuild. I have no experience with them... I just stumbled onto their web site.
