Default Re: master cylinder

I have not checked price so cannot help there but, had a little advice I wanted to pass on when you do make repairs.

With milage You have I would replace the rubber brake lines with flexible steel. The rubber liness with age and it does not take long but, they will expand with pressure and need more fluid to get job done which cause a real spungy feeling. The lines connect at steel lines going out to the brake slave cylinders on each wheel that receive the fluid to move calipers out to rotors for braking. I would also if not done recently and you plan to keep your H2 look at pads and rotors. I mean afterall stopping the monster is a big job 7500lbs. Rotors may just need turning. All these things will really get you stopped quick. If you have allot of HP etc. pushing the power go to larger size rotors and calipers with m ore cylinders pushing pads against rotor.

I do not even need brakes but, I have got to go to the full brake upgrade with 13" rotors.
