- We're having difficulty locating a brake master cylinder with a dual reservoir and a single pedal controlling both reservoir's. Does anyone know a supplier we could go through or where to get one???

- if you want a cheap way, a 79 VW Rabbit (no power assist) tandem master cyl. worked for us (used pedal leverage to add power!)... we used 4 wheel discs from a polaris 400 4x4 for calipers. Brian Fuer

- You need two master cylinders side by side with separate reservoirs. You should use a balance bar between the master cylinders so that you can adjust the relative braking front to rear. We have used

- I'm not familiar with the OEM tandem MC's, but can't you just put a prop valve one of the lines to adjust F-R bias? We've used two MC with a balance bar in the past and I wasn't too happy with how it
