Re: Bosch Hydromax brake booster info

Considering the old one didnt work at all I'd say it's pretty good

On a real note I dont have anything to compare it to so I'm not really sure.
There was a point coming down a steep hill where I was fully on the brakes and it didnt stop as quickly as I would have liked. Might need to increase the pressure going to the rear line but I cant much more before it locks up.

If I can't get this thing to stop how I want it, then I'll follow Richard's lead and ream out the front axle for the disc brake conversion. The end game is to make it into a dump truck or pull around a 20k lbs dump trailer so the brakes have to be dang near perfect.
