Member’s 1968 GT "personalization".
The new master is in. Jobber. Chinese. Aluminum. Wasn’t planned but I’ll take it.
Now sometimes it’s good to just do things your way without knowing all the tricks. I pulled the old master and was struggling to remove the push rod. Fortunately I didn’t research FABO for that tidbit of information sooner. I found out afterwards that removing the brake light switch allows you to use the pedal and just pop the rod free of the master. The piston pulls back against the C-clip and the rod pops out. IF there is a C-clip! That would have really pissed me off dumping the fluid out of the bore all over the fire wall and into the interior!
This was just going to be a disc brake upgrade...............
