Hello Patrick:

Well this is frustrating. I ordered the very kit you highlighted in your post above, received it from Parts Geek, removed the slave and took the beast apart.

Then I opened the package and looked at the valve. It looked kind of small. I put a caliper on it and indeed, it measured 3/4", not 13/16" which is what I need. I have the invoice in front of me - it is indeed TRW W0133-1636075.

Concerned about all this, I decided to not pry the old valve off. Do you know if mounting the valve on the stem of the piston should increase the diameter by 1/16"? That sounds like too much to hope for, right?

I put everything back together so I could drive the beast. Shame on me for not opening the package and checking the diameter before I went through all the trouble.

I want to return this for either a refund or the right part, but I want to make sure I check my math first.

Thanks again for your help everyone.

Cheers,

Pooch
