Brake master cylnders

Post by Nev62 »

Was/is the toyota T100 released in Australia or are parts avaliable. It seems the master cylnder is a bolt on for a 60 series and runs a lager bore (1 1/16" as aposed to the 7/8" OEM). Sounds like a much better brake feel/response.

Bugger, but on the bright side I have found the Dyna 200 is a 1 1/8" bore so might go with that :-)

What size do the 80's or 100's run??? Would have to be bigger due to disc brakes...

If you are trying to get more brake line pressure, you will need a smaller master cylinder than origional. A larger cylinder will increase pedal effort required, a smaller cylinder will decrease it.

Nah, thinking of changing the calipers. new ones are larger so would need the extra volume.

BTW I tried a smaller MC for your reason and it didnt work. Not enough volume :?
