Front, rear bias
the_big_1 - 19/4/19 at 09:14 PM

Hi guys,

I stripped my pedal box, to clean, paint, rebuild etc and as usual, missed taking some notes lol. I have two brake cylinders, 0.70 and 0.625. Which would you use for front, and which rear?

Cheers!

.7 for rear and .625 for front is what I did .Shoes on rear with pads on front.

I would use the 0.625 on the rear usually, but the only way to know for sure is to do some sums: http://www.brakepower.com

The smaller bore cylinder would normally go up front as it will create greater pressure than the larger bore cylinder giving bias to the front assuming a normally setup system.

For what its worth, I will be installing the smaller bore connected to the fronts, but making arrangements to make changes somewhat easier...
I will be using Bulkhead connectors so, it will be pretty straightforward to change front to back...
