It doesn’t say anywhere on Steve’s webpage about having to use his booster brake cylinders with disk type brakes. I ordered some and it was
Not mentioned on the phone. The STC instructions say only to be used with disc brakes. That was not my plan. Other than the potential for putting too much pressure on an expander tube that I know is over 50yrs old what is the downside. Just wanted a firmer pedal with less having to top off the master cylinders every six months. Contrary to the STC is anyone doing this. Grove disks are just another $1000.
