Brakes

Post by rreems »

Hi, I have a 4 door 1968 Morris minor, and have heard that you can fit a remote mount brake reservoir in the engine bay! Can this be done with a standard brake set up with a standard brake master cylinder? What mods have to be made to the master cylinder to fit the new reservoir?
Kind regards

Richard

The remote reservoir can be fitted to the standard master cylinder (M/C) without much difficulty.
Make contact with Declan Burns via a PM as he provides a first class kit with all the necessary parts.
The modifications required to the M/C are a new top cap without vent and a new M/C rear cap with threads to attach the union and pipe to the remote reservoir.
