Re: Hi from Botswana
I can probably help you out with a brake booster, A mate of mine has a smashed surf in Polokwane (Pietersburg) and he might just have the booster. Problem will be how to get it to you.mikefenton wrote:Not sure about side shaft spares but im struggling to find a brake booster. Ill see what I can find out about side shafts.
