Re: Master Cylinder (was Brake Light Switch - and Electrical question before that!)



If it is a single bowl I would surely replace it with a dual. Just for piece of mind if any other reason. Get a good one at O'Rielys and it is life time warranty.

Another option would be to get it sleeved in brass (or maybe it's
bronze) or stainless and then put in an original size rebuild kit.

Hi Dave,
I would rebuild the original if the bore is not too pitted. You can hone out some pitting and a slight amount will not adversely affect braking action, but deep pits will require a different master cylinder. I have bought rebuilts that wouldn't work-so if you buy a reman- buy good quality. You shouldn't have mismatched drum sizes on your car. The front brakes do the majority of the work so they typically have a larger friction area than the rear. Are the rears locking up before the fronts?
