Subject:      rear wheel cylinders
Content-Type: text/plain

Having done the rear brakes on my Vanagon and ending up with the"soft pedal" I was wondering if anyone had a set of wheel cylinder springs they would be willing to part with?

Even if it is just one that I could use to match to a new set. I just cant see removing the cylinders and buying new new cylinders to replace the new cylinders already installed to test if that is the real problem. I figure I could just open the cylinders and see if there was a spring, if not then just slip in one and see if that in fact cures the problem.

So if you have several old cylinders with the springs and can spare a pair, or even one please contact me. I will post if this works and in fact cures the pedal problem. That way we can all be sure to check before we install. I didnt.

Thanks,

A J
