Default BF booster same as AU2?

Long story short, jumped in the Fairlylame today, and my foot went straight to the floor, so I'd assume the booster is buggered.

I do have a BF booster here, so was wondering will it fit? I don't care if there's a different setup, since ill be fitting BF calipers and rotors soon enough to the front anyway.

Cheers

No.
Pushrod length is longer on BF by 20mm or so, and the eye in the pushrod is bigger too I think. So not a straight swap.

That said though, I'm running a BF booster in my ute. Just cut and shut with AU end.

Cheers

****.

Well I've got literally everything here, including master cylinder, pedal and all, so might see if I can make it work...

If your foot went straight to the floor it's not the booster. Your problem will be hydraulic. Probably the master cylinder bypassing.
If the booster was rooted the pedal would be rock hard.
