Hi Keroppi . . .

The Huck versus Bendix debate is quite old. The 'apparent' preference to the Bendix system is somewhat distorted by past scarcity - as there was a time when Huck service components where just hard to come by. This caused many to switch over just to keep "rolling". But Huck service parts are plentiful today - and are of the same quality as available Bendix service components.

Moreover, the primary difference between the Huck and the Bendix system is pedal effort transmitted to breaking force at the drums. In a non-boosted system the Bendix requires less pedal effort compared to Huck. Period. Both systems require regular shoe/drum clearance adjustment - as the early Bendix design is absent the 'auto-adjusting' star wheels that are a great feature in the later versions.

Given that the Huck setup is installed and ready to go - I can see no reason to chase parts for a Bendix conversion.

I am running Huck on all four corners and with residual pressure valves and proper adjustment of shoe/drum clearance - Huck brakes rock!
