Brake M/C Rebuild Kit Questions
Posted by Sloride75 On 2017/11/8 7:36:14
Hello all,
I recently began the rebuild of my brake master cylinder. After getting my unit disassembled, I noticed a couple differences between what I have and what came in the kit. In the picture, the old piston is on the left, replacement on the right. You can see that the replacement has a copper disk covering the holes; I presume to act as a one way valve. Is this ok? Also, the kit came with a relatively thick rubber washer, as seen between the two pistons. My master cylinder didn't have a corresponding washer. Where does it go? Thanks for the insight in advance!
-Mark
P.S. - that rebuild kit is from rockauto.com, listed for $12.08 right now...Kanter wants $12 just for the dust boot/bellow!
