Hello all. I wanted to see if anyone has any opinions in the Centric brand of brake boosters. Mine is shot, I have had advice from here about "White Post Restorations" and after speaking with them, they seem like a solid choice. I just wanted to hear anything from you guys about the other possibility. Centrics seem to be for sale on Ebay and other e-sellers.

Thanks!

Centric brake parts seem to be decent, but I can't say about this specific booster. I'd take a chance on it myself, as I am sure it's a lot cheaper than White Post. They do great work, but they are not cheap.
