Needed ?

Hello All,

As above, Brake Force Regulators; Are they needed when going to a Disk Brake'd rear setup ?

I was leisurely flicking through the VW Heritage braking section and came a cross these - https://www.vwheritage.com/shop/golf-mk1/WC698396/brake-force-regulator-3-15-for-mk1-golf-rear-disc-conversion/?crumbStartPage=2&crumbStartRow=49

Not sure I've ever come across them in any build threads etc… just after opinions on a £150+ outlay …

Cheers

yes they are, you either need the mk1 tintop lever operated type which is mounted under the car near the rear beam, or the later cab/rocco type which is mounted to the master cylinder as per the link above

Ah ok, makes sense now.

Mines a GTI so has the lever type next to the beam.
