I've got one in the car, won't be using it, need to use the T56 slave cylinder.

Only issue is, it's at Brads in the car still.

You'll have to get there and unbolt it (Without pissing brad off on me, or dirtying the workshop :P )

Edit: Also make sure it's okay with Brad and doesn't muck up any of his plans...

haha all good matt and thanks! - will see what steve-o can do first, and the cost of the bore and new piston for modifying the stocker.

o0o0o t56 6 speed hey - hydrolic thrust engagement changes things up a bit

Having never driven on semi slicks before - do they have alot of road noise? like a whine sort of noise?

hope its just the tyres lol

either that or the 2 way is transfering alot of noise/vibration with the urethane bushes in the complete cradle

Chris, what was the need for having the slave bored out bigger? I know you need more fluid to be moved... Is it just because the friction point is too close to the floor? Cause you can alter this...

Edit: Just re-read and had a brain fart of a late night thought, had an epic long rambling post written... Then realised I was talking about the master cylinder not the slave...

I still have the Slave cylinder if you need it. Just speak with Brad in regards to grabbing it.

Oh, I also got those parts too, just need to fit them. Thanks heaps!

hahaha no problem, yeah bigger slave to lighten the pedal feel

will chat to the shop that did the brake kit and see how much it cost, we had that done to the 1jz 5 speed slave in the sprinter but i dont remember the costs.

      Unpeeling the Orange

      By MBS206 · Posted

      I'm normally copping my own abuse from neglecting my daily drivers. "Those suspension bushes will last a bit more", "Don't worry about the oil leak, just keep topping it up". The project cars I'm always doing things slowly on them as I'm wanting them to be done better, and neater, and nicer. Luckily I don't have to deal with 18 year old Matt's "Learning to wire" stuff in the project cars. And there's only one piece of wiring I'm displeased about in the Landcruiser, and it's about to be cut out... However, the box loads of parts that have been going through this place lately for the Landcruiser... Brake pads Brake Rotors Full handbrake overhaul Wheel Bearings Seals Swivel hubs Steering Boxes Half the suspension joints Shocks Air bags (Ones to go in the rear springs for towing) Water pump Timing kit Lower timing case Harmonic Balancer Radiator Lots of other little seals and shits Gas struts for the bonnet New power window switches And god knows what else I've forgotten... Ha ha ha I have my fingers crossed the pinion seals don't start leaking on the diffs, that the transfer case doesn't leak, and the gearbox input shaft doesn't leak, nor the rear main seal. As they're about the only seals I haven't replaced in the driveline! I'm seriously eyeing off buying new caliper rebuild kits front and rear brake calipers... I'll probably recheck all the valve clearances soon too, and hopefully, it should be all good and sweet to haul some long distance trips again!

      Every time I pull my 3x gauges out of the console and see the crack-addict way that I did the wiring, and I just can't bring myself to tear it all apart and "make it nice", because it is currently working. In fact, the last time I was in there I probably made it worse.

      The best part is when you own the car long enough that you look back and find your OWN ham fisted amateur shit!

      The annoying part about neglect, is when you start to replace one thing, and find ten more broken things. Ham fisted monkey repairs you normally only find out about when trying to do something unrelated! Ha ha   Neglect you can kind of anticipate the huge costs to fix it all. Ham fistedness is normally a shock the first time your work on a new old car, as everything "looked" good before.
