 Posted: Tue Aug 05, 2003 2:52 am Post subject: wheel cylinders question |
 |
|
| i heard that a common brake problem with TX-TD is rear brake lock up, which i have, and that an easy fix is to get TG wheel cylinders, which i did, but they seem to look the same to me. Do TG cylinders look the same on the outside and just have different internals?? or did the bloke at autobahn give me the wrong friggin' cyliders?!? |

if you want to stop rear brake lock up
get a nut or bolt and a hose clamp and clamp it to the rear flexible brake line not to much or you have no rear brakes. just enuff to stop them from locking. |

If you have had leaking wheel cylinders before, then its common for the brake linings to soak up some of the fluid, and they become sort of sticky.
Upon medium brake applications, they will lock the wheels.
Its something to think about.
