First of all, thanks for all the help with the front calipers. I decided
to go ahead and split and rebuild them. I didn't have any trouble
finding an O-ring to repair them, but after a lot of thought (the
cylinders and pistons were pretty bad) I opted for a rebuilt set from
TRF. So I'll never know how the rebuild would have held.
I also rebuilt the Master Cylinder because it didn't look nearly as bad.
But now with the whole system together, I can feel the pedal sloooooooly
fading while sitting still. :-( The kit didn't hold.
My question for the vast wisdom of this group: does a place like Apple
Hydraulics re-sleeve master cylinders and do they hold well, or should I
just bite the bullet and spring for a new unit from one of the big
three? I haven't checked to see if they sell rebuilt units, but I would
assume they would work as well?
We've had a week of temps below freezing, so my spring fever is in
remission, but I want to get this thing back on the road SOOOON!
TIA
