    Thanks guys! Marcus, I don't think he will. I really get the special treatment. He generally uses his super powers only on his projects. He also does regular mechanic work for his immediate family. I will ask him though.

    It's called a vacuum booster and no your Aspire MC will bolt right up and one line has to be carefully bent to mate to the new MC.
    Bench bleed it good or you'll never get the air out of it.

    started a topic Aspire swap

    Aspire swap

    Started on the aspire brake/suspension swap at noon. I got the complete front assemblies done. I got the front aspire sway bar in, and the rear axle beam swapped on too. I have to hook up the brake lines and the e brake cable in the rear, install the aspire master cylinder, fill with fluid and bleed the brakes. Will be up and running then. The drivers side axle nut was cross threaded on. It shredded the nut and half the threads on the axle when coming off. I replaced the axle (thanks Jack) .
    Jack helped me by removing my rear interior plastics and the rear bumper. That is for the total stealth James Bond trailer hitch install. I shouldn't post pics until it's finished but I can't wait. It will be VERY stealthy when done. The receiver will only be seen as a steering wheel center emblem. The bumper skin will be back on the sub frame. The foam has already been cut to fit. Confusing I guess. Finished pics will follow. Jack made this receiver hitch into a stock festiva sub bumper.
