Brake master cylinder in a Mantula

Brake master cylinder in a Mantula

2009-09-28 by johnfranks66

Is the brake master cylinder in the pedal box the same on early and later models?  I need to rebuild a Mantula brake master cylinder and am wondering what kind of rebuild kit to order.  Is it Triumph GT6?  And have other owners had these resleeved or do you just replace the whole unit.
Thanks,
John Franks

Good day, John,
I made stainless steel sleeves for my master and rear wheel cylinders way back in 1979 and have rebuilt them twice sense. It is a little pricey to have them bored and sleeved, but will pay for itself in the first repair as you only have to buy the repair kit.
I worked at an aircraft manufacture at the time, so it didn't cost anything but a favor to the dept. that did the work.
