have I bought the correct brake cylinders
have I bought the correct brake cylinders
Hey guys, I have an early sj410, and obviously is the same set up as stated in the pinned thread
Originally I had only looked at the left side, I gave the parts store my reg and when the parts store asked if my cylinders had bleed nipples, I said yeah
However, I've noticed now that only the one side has the bleed nipple, so does this mean I've ordered the wrong ones, or do the bleed nipples have the same thread as the brake pipe fittings and its just a case of removing a bleep nipple and putting the brake pipe in?
Cheers

Unfortunately if yours is as the above diagram you will need the correct pipe in / pipe out cylinder.
replacing the bleed nipple for a pipe won't work.

Looking at that image, its the top two I need, although if anyone knows different, please correct me
My sj is a B reg, so I dunno if that makes it mk1 even though I'm sure its a 84/85

Re: have I bought the correct brake cylinders
Do you have the original cylinders? Would be worth measuring the distance between the cylinder.
Re: have I bought the correct brake cylinders
I haven't yet took the old ones off, but new cylinders should be delivered next week for the top two on that list

The top two show they are for the early model with drums up front as well.
