I have rebuilt two units now using the kits. The first (Alpine 7 inch) needed a better grease, but has now been working for over 3 years. The second (small Tiger 5.5 inch unit) worked well but had a clonking thing. You could hear it, and feel it through the pedal as you pressed it. I decided to replace that with a later unit which is much more progressive. One day I will investigate the clonking effect.

If you decide to try it, make sure you follow the best advice on grease, seal and vacuum cylinder finish (please ask again if you are unsure).
