Master cylinders
ecosse - 2/12/06 at 05:47 PM

I've just fitted up my Sierra master cylinder to my pedalbox and discovered that it is too long it sits right in the middle of where the N04 TB will be, so rather than remake my pedalbox has anyone any suggestions for a shorter master cylinder I could use?
Can I use one from an ABS car (whats the difference)?
I found this on ebay from an omega but I'm not sure about the tube sticking out of the mounting plate, any thoughts or suggestions please?


Cheers

That looks pretty like a 90 landrover one, the, whole tube moves and is hollow.

I have used a Landrover one on my car, just made a rod of the correct length to go inside the tube.

IMHO ideal, cheap (50 new) with three outlets, two front and one rear.

It was advertised as an Omega one, but thats good to know Mark, cheers

Is the tube part completely hollow, could it be chopped down a bit if neccessary?

Cheers
