Why are the brakes on a gq so much lighter...


Thanks in advance

All brake pedals follow one rule:

If there is no air in the system and no leaks of the vacuum or fluid type, you will have a hard stiff pedal. This is what you want.
MQ's abd GQ's are the same here.

With regards the the clutch, some are light, some are heavy. It generally has to do with the condition od the clutch, and the hydraulic clutch cyclenders working in the system.
My big one has always had a light clutch. Mt yellow one is far heavier.
I have had others even worse, and some that dont even feel like a clutch.

A Vac Assisted clutch will help when you have replaced an original item, with something that has a fair bit motr clamping force. Some GQ's have a VAC assisted clutch, and others dont, my GQ diesel doesnt, but my mates mums 3L petrol does, go figure.
