Cardone brake booster

I may need a brake booster for my
W116.
Has anybody experienced with cardone?

They are, price wise, very tempting.

As major sized re-builders go they are as good as anyone. The actual company probably supplies 75-80% of all rebuilds packaged under different names.

A small independent shop has the advantage of face to face customer service and MIGHT use a slightly better product. They are few and far between nowadays.

have used many parts from them, in fact when restoring my 72 450 the only ones that had the brake parts I needed. You should be OK
