brakes

i have a ex mod 90 with a 2.5 n/a and me brakes arent too good , have replaced the discs, pads and callipers on the front . the handbrake shoes . and the drums,pistons and shoes on the back . and my right leg is still getting more musclier every time i try to stop . any ideas

Fit a disco rear axle and have discs all round. :clap2:

are the brakes supposed to be able to be locked up cos they don`t . have been told to replace the vacuum pump and the servo , gonna be a practicaly new landy at this rate.:hysterically_laughi

I think you have a problem with the master cylinder - leak maybe - or as said your vaccum pump is fautly.

If you press the brake pedal, then turn on the ignition can you feel the vaccum pump kick in?

Or after you have had the engine running and you switch it off, can you get a couple of uses of the brakes with the engine off and they feel normal then start to get stiff as the vaccum runs out?

cant feel any change in the peddle when i start the engine , well not noticeably anyway.

sounds like your vacuum pump is on its way out.

Might just be a split hose but yup sounds like the vacuum pump in knackered.

thanks for the replies ...... more jobs to add to me list

If there is no change then you have a vaccum problem as said above - I suspected this after you had said you had done everything else!

It could be the pump, it could be the pipes or the vaccuum servo could have a hole in it, or not unheard of the little plug could have fallen out (some have little plugs in them, if this falls out its as good as a big hole).
