Mk2 brake booster

Team
I am chasing a second hand brake booster for my MK2 RS, its the last piece of the puzzle so I can get the thing registered.
Obviously needs to have no leaks (I already have a couple of stuffed ones thanks!)
I am on the Gold Coast but happy to buy and have posted.
Cheers

    Dude
     
    I am interested in the booster but dont need the master cylinder (just the vac booster).
     
    If you are willing to send to Gold Coast 4212 let me know how much you want for it including postage.

    Be aware that there are at lease 2 differnt boosters for Mk2 Escorts out there, and these are different again to a Mk1 booster....
     
    In Mk2 Escorts I have found 2 different length brake pedestal (the big braket the booster is mounted on) as well as the booster itself.  The difference seems to be the length of the levers etc, with the boosters appearing to have 2 different lengths.  I know because I found this out the hard way about 10 years ago.  Having a look under the engine bays you will notice some master cycls almost hit the bolt in front of them holding the bonnet cable, but some have around 15-20mm clearance.... This also equates to a difference in the booster too, although you cannot tell by looking at them unless they are side by side...

    Just my 2.2c worth including GST....
