RE: [VintageLambo] espada brake booster any effect on calipers?

Robinson, Aaron

Could be stuck pistons in the calipers. If the brakes are dragging the discs should be blue from the heat and your wheels will smut up more quickly with dust. The fact that you"re getting it in both front wheels is worrying. Could be a problem with the booster not releasing, a failure mode perhaps caused by the piston sticking in the bore of the booster. I"d also check the wheel bearing play, but you"d be getting noise as well.

Hello: If you have a bad brake booster{front} would this cause your front calipers to stick, or would you just have low pedal pressure. Both my front hubs run hot and at about sixty I felt a shake in the front wheels. I recently. replaced the right front brake hose and that took car of the problem of the right hub running hot, now both hubs run hot. the front wheel shake isn"t a balance problem, I had that before when the right front caliper didn"t release. Brake pedal pressure doesn"t feel to bad. Regards,Sheldon _____ * * * Your use of Yahoo! Groups is subject to the Yahoo! Terms of Service .
