We all know that Land Rover parts are cheaper in England, but I had a beauty
yesterday. Certain suppliers here in the USA want $239 for a CB type Brake
master for a Series IIA. The same item can be bought NEW in England for $32 and
shipped for $20 by Fed Ex to get it here in two days. The Clutch slave cylinder
is $16. I was thinking of buying overhaul kits for these after Keith Tanner
very kindly e-mailed me the diagrams on how to do this, but after seeing the
prices, I ordered everything new and will just bolt it on. Am I right in
thinking that the CV (single circuit) brake master off a SWB SIIA is the same
unit as the clutch master, because the Land Rover website lists the brake master
in the clutch section as well as the brake section and the parts look alike and
have the same part number. What I got from England in a bag marked "Brake master
cylinder SWB" was identical to the item I removed from the Clutch position on
the bulkhead. I know that all the pedals are on the wrong side of the car, but
they are still in the right order...I think.
Kind regards,
Mark Pilkington
