Title: Brakes
Post by: oldgasser on 2022-01-27 20:57
I'm looking for a master brake cylinder with an 1 1/8 inch bore for my 57/58 Retractable, can you help or direct me where to locate.
Thank you for your time.

Very hard to find a P/B MC, I've only seen one at Carlisle/Hershey in decades.

If you have an old one you can have it sleeved and rebuilt.

Good luck,

Ron.

Somebody suggested a master from a late 80's Ford Mustang SVO.   I bought this part number but do some research as I think there is and aluminum version and a cast iron version. Cardone 131897 check rockauto about 75 bucks.  It's listed as 1.125"

My 57 retract has the KH power brakes with the 1 1/8" master.  I had my re-sleeved.  It was about $100 bucks to have it done, but it salvaged my cylinder.
