scottly 475 Posted September 16, 2019 Hey guys, just wondering if any one here has the knowledge how to tell the difference between xd xe v8 and 6cyl brake boosters. I have been told the v8 boosters are 290mm and the 6cyl ones are 220-230mm, I have never seen a 290mm booster before on a xd I might of maybe on a xf or xg.

jca25 1,034 Posted September 16, 2019 Xd and xe were the same in 6cyl and v8 the only ones i found were bigger was the fairlanes autos as the booster would cover were the clutch master is so u couldn't do a manual, i maybe wrong and I'm sure someone will correct me if i am Sent from my SM-G950F using Tapatalk 3 deankxf, macman and scottly reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

scottly 475 Posted September 16, 2019 Wow well that’s good news, I have contacted multiple company’s and could not get a straight answer. I have also parted out lots of xd and xe’s v8 and 6cyl and never noticed a size difference. Looks like I’ll have no problems getting mine reco’d then hopefully lol Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

scottly 475 Posted September 16, 2019 Cheers man, yes I did read that thread it’s a great write up. I don’t think I would be comfortable doing the job myself. if it failed it’s on me, I don’t think I could handle if that caused me to crash my xd lol. I would love to see one of those 290mm brake boosters they would be freaking huge Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
