    Defender brake tower bonnet clearance

    My Heystee 4 wheel disc brake conversion has now pushed me deeper into the abyss of the rebuild and I have to use an STC4322 SERVO which needs an NTC7933 pedal box. Does anyone know what the clearance issues are with a deluxe S3 bonnet and a defender disc pedal box?
    I won't even mentiion the power steering abyss that is running in tandem with this.
    Thanks

    if you are running power steering why not run hydroboost?

      Have never looked at Hydraboost and have not seen any mention of it until your post. I'm trying to keep some semblance of Landrover with this hybrid.
      Thanks for the suggeston though

        The heart and soul of a land rover is definitely the servo unit . . . Hydroboost will give better line pressure and shorter stopping times. If you are stuck on the inbred theme you will find the profile of the footwell is different on the series than on the 90 so the angle that the pedal box sits is slightly different. Your best bet is to get the items and test fit them and see what changes you will have to make. Should be pretty straightforward with the pieces in hand.

          Thanks Leafsprung. Will have to re-engineer it then. Appreciate the info.
