brakes

Hello all!



Anyone know of a car that has the brake lights operated by a pressure switch in the brake line? I`ve put the servo in the car I`m building, then realised I need to put a brake light switch in. DOH!!



Will post some pics when I find them.


Holden do a selection.

Small bracket fitted onto pedal box will do the trick.

Thanks dave for the link. Yes a switch would be best, but I decided that a presssure switch will allow the fitting to be easier. Paid 15 quid for a morris minor brake pressure switch. OUCH!

Also bought sone oil for the dif(s). Is LSD dif. oil only for clutch type LSDs? I`m using a sierra dif, (FERGESON LSD). Dicided to go for normal oil instead of the miller LSD type.

use the ford recommended stuff it's a viscous diff rather than a plate so it doesn't need "special" oil, but it does make use to eh "right" oil

Chers, just as i thought. The bloke at the car shop sold me the millers lsd stuff. When I read it I was sure it was wrong (he thought it was right) so swaped it for the recomended stuff. He said that a gearbox place nearby will only use this stuff in the rs turbo `boxes. That will mess up the gearboxes (says not for sycromesh gearboxes)!!!.

I hate going to a shop and being served by someone who doesn`t know his stuff, worse still someone who thinks he knows his stuff!!!!!!
