rear brake rebuild on cavalier 2ltr gsl 1993

Post by jacksy »

Cavalier mk3 2ltr GSL auto 1993
I wish to rebuild my rear brakes complete back to a new master cylinder. Advice would be appreciated as to where to go to source the materials for this job ie brake pipes fittings hoses.
Any helpful comments about this job would be appreciated

Brake piping kits are freely available which include bending tool and flaring tool - I believe there was a complete kit made up for a Cav on ebay recently. You'll probably need new bleed nipples, etc so look into the correct sizes as these can be slightly tricky for the first timer. As for brake cylinders, I know they can be renovated but you'd have to look for someone who does that (try google/classic/resto car mags adverts) or buy a replacement.
