Hi Chaps,

I need to get my brakes sorted, part of that is getting the rear brakes to do their share of the work. My rear compensator is defunct and i'm trying to decide what to do....

Firstly does anyone know if you can still get a new rear compensator from Reno? if so any idea what the part number is?

Or can anyone reconmend an alternative? such as THIS (http://www.rallydesign.co.uk/product_info.php?cPath=562_596&products_id=4108&osCsid=9plh64cmbvn8rv6iri47cqgir4)

Cheers Ashy

I was wondering the exact same thing the other day, remove the compensator and replace it with some kind of manual adjustment as you have linked to.

Be interesting to see what those more in the know have to say :)

I remember buying one from GSF about 2yrs ago for £80ish, might be worth a check to see if they still sell them.

you'd need a dual one though. Fit standard. Is there such a thing as a non ABS clio?
