Brake Pedal Master Cylinder

Post by spb2002 »

Afternoon all, Apart from the obvious 'filling it up' problem, is there any other reason why I couldn't/ shouldn't fit the footbrake master cylinder at an angle (approx 30 degrees). The master cyclinder in question is a Land Rover Clutch cylinder - If i need to fit it horizontally, then i'll find a way to do it, but at present the obvious location at the moment would be at an angle.

No, a Land Rover clutch master cylinder is mounted at about 10 degrees anyway. You may have an issue with the amount of fluid you can get in the reservoir . Can you not find a 3/4 master cylinder with a remote res ?
