Author	Subject: Removing the rear brake compensator
99rallye Regular Location: Hitchin Registered: 26 Aug 2009 Posts: 348 Status: Offline	Post #1 I'm refurbishing my rear beam and given the condition of my rear brake compensator I'm thinking about removing it completly. My thoughts were to run a manual in car brake bias to adjust the front back split. Has anyone removed their brake compensator? Good idea?

Good idea? yes removed compensator and works fine . i prefer using the bias twist knob adjustment type , as can get finer adjustment compared to lever type bias adjuster ________________________________________ wayne mcardle
