Sorry its not in the brake section but I need a quick answer Smile I have just replaced the compensator on the rallye and I need some details of how to set it up? I.e measurements etc. Any help would be spot on.

it is a bit hit and miss and i struggled to get a measurement off anyone including pug, although there should be a measurement in the service manual, i believe it can also be had from the the job time systems that most reputable mechanics have in their workshops.

Cheers Mate. I reckon I have it sorted now, I figured how it all operates etc and set it up to suit. It would just be nice to have a figure for ref.

I just set mine up with the car on a level surface until it looked correct. It then passed its mot for rear brake effort so I guess it worked.
