Title: The Master Cyl is apart., Now where do I get parts.??
Post by: chetbrz on November 28, 2006, 09:46:54 AM
Well I was able to unscrew the Master Cylinder rear cap.? Apparently the casting had a hair line crack in the thread flange and that?s why it was welded.

OK?, Now that it is apart anyone know where I can get replacement parts..????? Most especially the rear valve and seal.? The piston and piston cup & spring appear to be fine.

The rear valve and seal have the same part numbers for 1928 through 1933 (at least, my 1934 parts book does not give internal part numbers and I don't have a later book). Bernbaum's web site lists one repair kit for 30 through 36, so I assume that the valve and seal are the same up to at least 1936.

I bet if you take the internal parts to your local brake and supply company (the ones the local mechanics buy from, not your local auto supply store) they will be able to match up up with most (if not all) of what you need.

I ended up getting a new master cylinder, so I did not get modern part interchange number information for the internal parts on the master cylinder. If you do find what those interchange numbers are could you forward them to me so that I can add them to my parts list on my web site? Thanks!
