A brace for the master brake cylinder - why?

put your finger on the master cylinder and get someone to press the brake hard, you will see how much pedal effort is wasted by the flexing in the master cylinder.

OK I'm impressed I never knew that happened. Do you just make up a wrap around metal band and then secure it to the bulkhead or what?

Got mine from SE John £69,never seen them for sale anywhere else.

Very pleased with it, get someone to press the brake pedal hard and look how much the master cylinder moves

 

------------------

Got any pics??

 

Regardz

I will take one today and post it on this thread .

 

------------------

They are out of stock and no more for 3 weeks as guy who makes them is away on his holidays. Will have to see if there is another way of bracing it. Ah well an August expenditure.

There you go Sub/John removed my cruise just so you can have a good look

very simple,yet very effective.

 

------------------

Nice one M8, think I'll just by one for that price!!!

Iain I will have to take a look at it on Sunday at Billing but I think the plate (£69 for a piece of shaped metal, jeez) will not fit on mine as I have a strut brace and large bolts from the camber plates in that area.
