Brake cylinders -- why different for each wheel?
Hi guys,
Just finished packing the bearings for the front axle. The wheel cylinders that were given to me were unmarked. After looking at a couple of catalogs, I see they are different for each wheel. I want to double check I have the correct cylinder on each wheel now. Can you visually tell the difference between them? Is it just the orientation of the input line? They wer not marked when I got them.
Truck is progressing nicely. Its a bit tough working on it in the winter in New England. I have a bunch of parts off at the sandblasting shop now including running board supports, couple of the valance pans, running boards, etc...
I'm going to get this axle back in and take off the nose next for body work and general cleanup. I'm also going the frame-off route now. My biggest concern with that is sheer space. I'm limited to one garage bay. It would simplify brake line installation though!!
