Hi , can anyone recommend a good source for an overhaul / repair kit
for a mk1 lockheed servo ?
Have tried minispares with none to be had .

Thanks ,

Dave

Give these guys a try, they will completely recondition it if you need it done

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.

Regards
Al

Does anyone know when the new mini spares ones will be in stock . They've been promising them for what seems ages now ... Ken

The MK1 S Brake booster was the same one used on Alfa Romeo GTV1750s or 105s except made by Bonaldi.
expensive repair kits for lockheed bonaldis http://www.highwoodalfa.com/976cbb48-38 ... ecd-9.html
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.

Try Powertrain brakes (google search) they do parts for older brake
Systems I had similar story with J&L

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 s

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

Dave Kingerley near Derby does reconditioned ones and repair kits. Great bloke to deal with for any Lockheed stuff.

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.

end of the year

only will be gold pasivate colour, the promised 'cad grey' turned out to be nearly chrome, so we knocked it on the head.
