Master Cylinder (1 Viewer)

[Dura]

Hi Folks,

I have the original arrangement with a banjo bolt (not sure what thread it is) and would like to know what my options are to rebuild or replace with some kind of mod that will allow me to retain the pressure switch. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Best to all,

Dura

Assuming you have a FJ25.

I have seen the newer single circuit master with the FJ25 master end cap and pressure switch used.

Thank you for the responses. I forgot that the two master cylinders are the same, as my brake master was replaced with one that has the plastic cup. I rebuilt the clutch master about a year ago with the info from the link that you kindly sent. My problem now, is if I don’t rebuild the one I have, the banjo bolt arrangement is not common and I will need to rearrange the pressure switch and retube over to the first junction, which I probably should do as a long term solution. Again, I thank you folks for taking the time to help.

Best regards,

Dura

I am very curious how similar this MC is… Sure looks the same but it would be hard to know for sure without ordering one.

Have you ordered one and tried it? Was it compatible?

No, don’t have a 25 . So can’t compare.
It’s not expensive.

It’s in Dutch but I think you know what sizes are meant right? If not, just ask.
