went fit my brake servo today and it does'nt go on! i'm confused as i took this servo of a GTE on a F reg, my SR is on a G reg, can't see them being different fittments. as you can see from the pics the brake servo has 4 studs coming out of it all squate to each other, were has the bulk head has one ( bottom right ) offset. i think i am missing a spacer or something. can someone please advise.....

Yeah theres a spacer (type thing) missing that fits between the servo & bulkhead, it'll still be fitted to your old servo.
]There the same on all Nova's anyway so you'll be able to get one no probs.

The spacer thing is about 3" long, it bolts to the bulk head then the servo bolts to the spacer.

This type of thing ....

As Rich said, the spacer thing has offset holes that fits the bulkead.
Which the servo bolts to.
