gheebhow 4 Posted October 27, 2017 Can I ask a daft question on the back of this? I know the unions have to be changed if you use this master cylinder because the bores are slightly wider, but do the brake pipes themselves still fit OK onto the unions? In other words, one the new unions are in place everything just bolts back together without any other changes needed? Thanks! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
nmonkey220 23 Posted October 27, 2017 I'm just changing all the brakes so it doesn't make much difference to me Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
sheffieldcortinacentre 669 Posted October 27, 2017 Yes same & there about a 3rd of the price of cortina one. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

RT 1006 137 Posted October 27, 2017 Bear in mind at £32 you'll get what you pay for. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
gheebhow 4 Posted October 27, 2017 Would you recommend a better quality one RT 1006? I was looking at a Delphi one on Ebay for £59 but it said it was for the Bendix system so I guess isn't compatible with the Girling one? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

nmonkey220 23 Posted October 28, 2017 Bear in mind at £32 you'll get what you pay for. My mate has been running this type on his Series 3 Landrover as a daily and tows a trailer with 2 race minis on. He also runs them on his race minis. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
gheebhow 4 Posted October 28, 2017 That's good enough for me! Thanks. Oddly, I've just been on to Rimmer Brothers and they can't tell which unions go with it - Landrover don't list any for this master cylinder. So I thought I'd better check to see what you did with yours before I get one. Thanks Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
