serwo ukladu hamulcowego

[Wojtek 0]

Witam. Po długiej renowacji próbuję jezdzić swoją Cortiną. Niestety hamulce to porażka. Pomimo przednich tarcz strach wyjeżdzać na drogę .Pomimo pełnego nacisku na pedał efekt jest mizerny. Cały czas szukam możliwości zamontowania serva. Szukałem nawet elektrycznych. Niestety  kierownica jest z lewej strony i nie wiem jak zmieścić servo. Może ktoś ma jakieś doświadczenie w tym tamacie. Pomóżcie !!!

Hello. After a long renovation, I'm trying to drive my Cortina. Unfortunately, the brakes are a failure. Despite the front discs, I am afraid to go out on the road. Despite the full pressure on the pedal, the effect is meager. I'm still looking for the possibility of mounting a servo. I even looked for electric ones. Unfortunately, the steering wheel is on the left side and I don't know how to fit the servo. Maybe someone has some experience in this matter. Help!!!

If you have discs on the front , Cortinas do stop reasonably well if the system is working correctly but not to the standards of modern cars of course. I think your only option for a servo would be a remote one but they do come at a price !!

I was looking at remote servos for a friend with a project car recently.  The best value remote servo kit we found comes from a classic mini supplier in Birmingham if that's of any use: Link

Cortiny jedynki nie miałem, ale obiło mi się o uszy że układ z taunusa tc1/2/3 pasuje po drobnych modyfikacjach. Nie wiem ile w tym jest prawdy. Serwo musisz kupić od Europejczyka, chociaż nie widzę dlaczego serwo od innego auta miałoby nie pasować.

I haven't owned a Cortina 1, but I've heard that the Taunus TC1/2/3 system fits with minor modifications. I don't know how much truth there is to that. You have to buy the servo from a European manufacturer, although I don't see why a servo from another car wouldn't fit.

Any inline servo is to big to fit in the corner of engine bay on mk1-2 & is why they have a remote one, some (LHD) export ones had a similar setup to the mk1-2 escort were it's mounted on a long extension placing it near the front of bay. But I'm not very knowledgeable on mk1-2 though so don't know if this would work on rhd , a different master cylinder wouldn't be to hard to fit.

the long arm servo was fitted to rhd export Mk2s also. however sourcing one will be very difficult and you'd need to alter the inner wing.

 

I don't think the servo will improve the braking, I'd consider bigger Capri vented discs and bigger calipers or something alon g those lines. I would try someone like Burton Power to see if they do a conversion kit.

I'm not up on mk1-2's.

Like the mk3-4-5 fit Capri 2.8i vented discs & MK2 Granada 2.8 calipers just needs some longer mounting bolts & washers to centralise the calipers ( remove back plates to clear the thicker disc) & Change brake pipe union to metric.
