    At rest the front m/c should have a longer adjusted pushrod than the rear. When braking the front pushrod travel further than the rear. I had a similar issue with my pedalbox until I adjusted the pushrods and now the bite is much better as the fronts are getting more pressure to them now.

    There is some techie balance bar setup detail on the Wilwood site here http://www.wilwood.com/TechTip/TechPedalTip.aspx (see halfway down the page) you may find it useful as it helped me when I was researching the pedal box setup.

    what what old boy - nice to read the progress, rises and falls of the last few pages.

    glad to see you're still cracking on with it.

    looking forward to getting together still - do you have any further days booked?

    I'm at Wittington on 22nd July

    So decided to drag this out last night and with the much appreciated help of Iain and Karl we had the box out



    The standard diff has been removed after struggling to get an inner cv out, but Heman Iain just smashed it to smithereens and it was sorted! So ordered a new inner cv and an outer aswell as a spare.

    Going to get the quaife in the box over the weekend so more updates then
