Subject: Master cylinders...
Amoungst other things I'm renovating the clutch / brake master cylinder assembly. It's a setup of random Girling parts which I haven't seen on any other car.
Of the three masters the newer (replacement) 0.75" one is quite usable but the original 0.7" ones need replacing - mainly to improve performance. I'm sure you realise that quite a few mechanical parts on the Rapide are also used on Landrovers (including the master cylinders), just wondering if anyone has bought and fitted a considerable cheaper landrover master cylinder?
Also...the brake fluid resevoir level indicators - are new aluminium shrouds avaiable - the bit which slides over the cork float internally?
