Thumbs up No need for the limiter

Hi Ash
I am not sure what you mean by rubbish? Further discussion with a few other builders and then your goodself it looks there is no need for the limiter at all, on either disics or drum system. Do you agree and hope Matt can prove this when he takes this to his Mot station?

Cheers

No maths involved,brake tester does it all for you and on average I use one up to ten times a day testing vehicles.

At the end of the day if the mate who is watching which wheel locks first is as good as the roller tester in the IVA he is wasted standing on the side of the road.
