son, Bob Sweeting, built the company up, rebuilding mountains of brake boosters and master cylinders, as well as working on and designing brake systems for many notable clients and projects. The owner, Matthew Sweeting, is the third generation leading the business in designing new retrofit braking systems for individuals with specialty vehicles and small volume new vehicle manufacturers. A fourth generation, naturally crazy about cars and planes, helps and is learning about advanced vehicle brake systems.

Matt was rebuilding brake boosters from a young age - tearing down, buffing, washing, painting, stocking, installing, sourcing, and the general business of brake parts. Being a third generation brakeman meant being taught the right ways about brake systems, new and classic, and having a natural familiarity with these systems from taking them apart and putting them back together repeatedly. The rebuilding market changed, volume and low cost became prioritized, and it has changed again, more recently, in the aftermarket toward new replacement parts that are sourced from the cheapest place they can produced, where quality has never stopped being our focus. Brake systems for new OE vehicles are getting very complex, with computers, electric motors, switches, sensors, and accumulators being added to a once fairly simple master cylinder. We now we work on lower volume, more complex braking systems, sourcing original replacement parts as much as we can and then designing retrofit replacements using new OE parts and/or manufacturing them ourselves, rather than rebuilt, when supporting the original system becomes unreasonable. We can offer many new replacement parts, where the factory or parts store will call them obsolete, we either have already designed, or can design a new upgraded replacement.
