So I recently installed a 1993 pickup MC on my FJ40. For some reason, the rear seams to be locking up too fast since the swap. Since both the fj40 OEM MC and the 1993 were drum (please correct me if I am wrong), it should act similar to my OEM MC? BTW I swapped to disks on the front and had...

It seems the resididual valves are behind a brass cone installed in the exit fitting, where you screw in your brake line. They say to pull it out with a screw extractor, remove it, and reinstall the cone.

thanks. I would imagine not removing it would only lead to premature wear of the brake components... there is a big difference between 2lbs and 10lbs of residual pressure. On my fj40 MC, the residual valves could easily be removed by unscrewing a nut that held them in place. I am looking to...

Inside where you screw in the 10mm brake line? if so how can you remove the rear? Looking ahead when i am ready to concert rear to disk...

City Racer sells the spacers. The SKP booster comes with a spacer. Isn't China the new Japan?

I have a MC from a 1993 pickup that I want to use. It looks similar, and may be the same as your MC (80 series ?) you used.

Do you have the PN for that connector?

Did you connect your MC to the truck brake lights? if so, where did you get the connector?

@Green Bean, What MC did you install? Removing the spacer would give me extra room in the engine compartment, but the length of the rod would be too long. I would have to see if it would give me enough adjustment on the pedal side. I have not yet had time test fit it all.

Does anyone know where residual valves are located? @archie73, if your brakes are singing, I would imagine your 10lb residual drum valve is still installed? Wouldn't you need to remove it? I was originally running my 74 MC with the front residual valve removed completely, it stopped great.

My 1974 OEM booster failed a few years ago and have not had time to deal with it. I started rebuilding the 74 booster that had brake fluid leak into it. I tore it down, repainted, and reassembled it, but was unable to get some of the external gaskets to finish the job. Finally getting back to...

Does anyone know offhand where the residual valves are on a 1993 Master cylinder? I would assume they are on the MC as in earlier MCs.

I have a 74 FJ40. I have disks in front, and drums in rear. I just ordered a new booster to replace the OEM that I rebuilt, but was missing one seal that I could not find, so decided to upgrade to the later dual diaphragm booster. I have a 93 toyota pickup Master cylinder and was wondering if...

did you sell this yet?
