Re: Brake pedal notchy on 91 hdj80

Yeah, it might be worth getting the new master cylinder checked. I have proved it by blocking the outlets right at the cylinder and the peddle was hard as a rock. I guess there could still be some bypass further down the piston's travel.
I have read of people changing theirs two or three times and ...

Re: Brake pedal notchy on 91 hdj80

I also have a '91 HDJ80. The brakes work OK but if I keep pressing the pedal it does keep sinking. The obvious cause for would be a faulty master cylinder.
However the master cylinder has been replaced and it made no difference to it at all.
I've just had new stainless steel braided hoses all ...

$690.
I presume that's the price for reconditioning only. No removal or re-install included. A similar service is available on Ebay for $576.

I'm intersted in having this done myself but have a few other questions.
How can I be reasonably certain my injectors need doing and I'm going to see some ...

Cruiser Castor bushes

G'day,
My '91 cruiser has about 3 inches of lift and is running 315/75/16s. I have a set of urethane 2 degree castor bushes but haven't fitted them yet. I'm worried about the chance of cracking the diff housing with these stiffer than OEM bushes.
It drives pretty good so I haven't been too bothered ...
