This can sometimes be a little tough because your frame of reference may be different...........how "lot of travel" is "lot of travel". Manual brakes will take more travel than power, and will take more application force from your leg because there's no assist from the booster (I think you already get that).
Could be that you've got a power brake master cylinder rather than a manual one, that could explain the longer travel you're experiencing. Also the bore size could be too large which reduces the amount of pressure to the calipers.
Can you find out from the builder if he used a "system" from a brake system supplier, and who that would be?Last edited by Bob Parmenter; 03-14-2007 at 09:52 AM.

It's much easier to promise someone a "free" ride on the wagon than to urge them to pull it.
Luck occurs when preparation and opportunity converge.
