Still have 48 brake master cyl, should this be replaced if keep 48 brake shoes? posted: February 14, 2008       Answers (4)   dman      Depends largely on the theme you want to stick with. If original is what you are after I would keep an original style master cylinder or possibly rebuild your original with a honing tool and new plungers. However, you could purchase a newer style, double reservoir master cylinder and retrofit it to your vehicle. This would of course give you a greater piece of mind on those quick stops! posted:  February 14, 2008   48chv      Dman(17) thanks for info. I would like to keep close to original, but want safety also. I'll check out which newer cyl may fit. posted:  February 15, 2008   spudder      Check out Pete&Jakes, they have complete units you can buy and they should bolt right in. www.rjays.com/Pete_Jakes/PJ_brake-comps-01.htm posted:  February 15, 2008   48chv      Spudder, thanks for the site. I'll check it out. Man, OldRide is a great site with great fans. posted:  February 15, 2008
