Hey guys,

Just got back from the brake shop where they told me how much they were going to charge me for a new master cylinder.

I don't think so.

So I was going to attempt this myself.

Done some brake work before, changed pads, etc. I hate bleeding brakes and I always screw it up. I figure worst comes to worst, as long as I get the
cylinder on and it's not leaking, I can take it to a mechanic and have them bleed it properly for me.

One question I had - I've noticed that on a lot of these remanufactured MC, they don't come with reservoirs. Is it hard to change it from the old MC to the new one?

Wondering if anyone has any tips/tricks...?

Thanks!

scott
