Remote servo

Post by PAULJ »

Hi all, just bought a remote servo for my trike. Not the moggy. Very different to the Lockheed one I have on the car. It’s heavy and all metal. Can anyone identify it please. No info wit it at all. The Lockheed ones are fitted at an angle on two plains. This one has a bleed nipple which would assist in bleeding. Any info would be greatly appreciated

Paul ( ? ) could you tell us what is on the small plate screwed / pop rivetted to the casting and also the the letters and numbers moulded into the casting itself ? It would speed up the Internet searching to establish the manufacturer. From that , it might be possible to find a set of installation instructions.

Well ones designed with the Bolted on rear plate are very rare as after market items from what I can see on the interweb.
Almost all designs use the clamp ring to hold the rear on.

However, this one looks remarkably similar: http://www.pastparts.co.uk/index.php?ro ... duct_id=77

It might steer you in the right direction.

John, normally I would agree. However this does seem to be good quality. Very heavy and no plastic so as you say. We will see

The plate says Maverick 6469 11B and the casting number is PPT 206-31102F
There is also another casting that says PDM.
I’ve tried to search all numbers in google. I was hoping someone may recognise it ?.
Thanks

I've tried lots of different search combinations, on different search engines and like you I've drawn a blank.Sorry.
Hope someone else holds the clue. Bob

Yep, strange one. I fitted it today and works very well. I’ve mounted it horizontally as there is a bleed nipple on top. Plenty of braking force. I’m going to try a larger master cylinder from 3/4 to 7/8 as there is plenty of pedal travel and will lock up the brakes very easily. This is for a trike V8 so only two brakes.
Thanks for taking the time.
Paul
