master cylinder rebuild

<< < (2/6) > >>

jdp:
I had bought some left rear calipers and some rebuild kits back a few months ago since they seem to be getting scarce.  With 3 Capris, I want to be able to have on hand to keep these cars going until I age out!  I guess I will have to go on the hunt for master cylinders and rebuild kits.

smd123:
So just for the record, the master cylinder has 3 main seals.

All of them are sized for the cylinder bore which is 13/16" (or .813").  Two of them are .400" ID.  The shaft which the middle seal slides over is .554".

Raybestos kit MK1026 has the two outer seals and they appear to be identical.

I have ordered one more kit that looks like it may have the middle seal.

Hopefully this works!!

$127 US dollars plus postage.

smd123:
Thanks, I ordered it.

The other seal kits did not fix my issue.  I also mailed it back to Cardone for overhaul and they said they can't fix it.

jdp:
Well that is a problem. I sure hope my master cylinders don't give out.
