Title: Wanted dual circuit master cylinder (RHD)
Post by: Manxstu on July 21, 2020, 02:45:36 PM
Hi guys,

Looking for a decent dual circuit master cylinder if anyone has one lying around! Or even better if someone has a new one that they ended up not using?

Cheers
Stu

Keep trying as I have been ordering items repeatedly during the lockdown period and it seems that every supplier has received unprecedented number of orders as people furloughed etc started\restarted their builds. However the parts are slowly being re-stocked it just may take a week or two.     Watch out for any supplier trying to talk you into buying a  expensive lhd master cylinder which originates from Germany and has the two ports for twin brake switches. They say this will fit a rhd chassis. It will not as there is insufficient clearance to allow the front side port to accept a brake pipe. The pipe cannot bend tightly enough...  Serves me right for being a fool just because I needed one desparately.   ;D ;D

Yeah I've already had people try and tell to convert a lefty but like you say there's not enough room! I'll keep trying the usuals! They're mostly saying two weeks though, some are even saying a month! :(

Do you have an absolutely knackered one with rusty bore etc ?
There is an outfit by me called Contract Auto Engineering 01299 828117 they will refurbish anything brake related they bore out and fit stainless sleeves inside do a top job, go as far as saying will be better than any new aftermarket stuff.
I've used them many times reasonably priced too  ;-)up

Try giving Adam at AJ's VW Services a ring  01803 526177

He is not far from me and if he has a decent second hand one I can stick it in the post to you if that helps?

Left hand cylinder is too tight. Got mine via Just Kampers (CSP). Need a spacer to work and keep the 1mm clearance at the pedal .
