Title: 1957 Ford master cylinder
Post by: racton on 2016-02-10 08:36
Hi Fellows,I removed my mastercylinder a couple of months ago.The car had been sitting for 13 years.Napa wanted $40 bucks for a hone so I put it on the bench.I found a hone for $20.My cylinder is ready for reassembly(a task I did 50 years ago with no problem)......Long story short.....I forgot what goes where.i thought my 1956 Motors Manual,had a drawing but it is for a different cylinder.does anyone have a diagram? :unitedstates:  thanks.....racton

Stongly advise you replace that single reservoir master with a dual reservoir one. Two things not to go the cheapest way on...brakes and fuel system.
