contacts needed for master cylinder restoration
« on: January 04, 2007, 02:19:49 AM »
hi guys,

Just wondering whether anyone would be able to help in regards to restoring  an original master cylinder...An original master cylinder that is in a horrible condition, corroded, rusty..you name it.

Suppliers in NSW would be great


thanks

Hi jolinari ;42
I have brake master cylinder kits in stock:luv
Just about any good brake place can resleeve your brake master cylinder;27
However all this is no good if your master cylinder has a badly rusted surface;37
Get a wire brush on a drill and clean the outside of your master cylinder, if this surface is good after cleaning then get it resleeved;41
Burt Brothers Brakes in Fairfield are very good with resleeving brake master cylinders and will be able to kit and assemble for you as well:{

Hope this helps;)

Joe if that one of yours is not suited for resleeving, I still have my old one.  Your quite welcome to it if it suits your model.

hey joe it depends on the inside,it looks fine to me from the outside,the two bails and top cover take to a chrome plater and tell them you want them cad plated in gold,just explain to them what its forand they will know what to do,i just had mine done,$12 at hamilton chrome,though you have many places in sydney to choose from,then just take the master cylinder to a brake place and bobs your uncle....;35
