2010 Ford Bantam Brake Equalizer leaking
650

Asked by Ajay12345 Aug 12, 2020 at 05:40 AM about the 1995 Ford Bantam

Question type: Maintenance & Repair

Hi people. The brake equalizer on my 2010 Ford Bantam 1.3i failed ,It just
started leaking out of the blue ,Before I knew what the problem was, i filled
500ml and drove 3 kms , by the time i stopped , the brake fluid was all
out.When i stopped , i checked under the van and saw that the brake fluid
was dripping out from the equalizer , and probably sprayed out everytime i
pressed the brake pedal.. Can the brake equalizer be repaired or will i need
to buy a brand new unit ? And how do I take it off ? I changed it on my 1988
1.8 Golf years back, that didnt seem too complicated , but this one has the
load bar connected to it.I'm looking for advice please on how to remove it ,
and repair or replace it with a new one( very expensive )  :(  Thanks in
advance .. Ps , its a 2010 Model , no option to select that year so i just
selected any year.

Thanks for your help. While waiting for replies , our work mechanic showed me a place where they recondition the old unit . I had it done and put back .. Everything looks good ..It costed me R650 to recondition the part , with a 6 month warranty( and done in just over 2 hours ) . No labour cost to remove and replace it , i did it myself .. To buy a new part , the average cost was about R1600 / R1700and i couldnt afford it right now. If anyone has this problem and needs to get their part reconditioned around Durban, let me know and i'll give you the info.
