We Can Rebuild It...

I brought the brake and clutch masters into work at the transmission shop I work at. I disassembled the clutch master and it had dried up crap and corrosion but was not too bad. The brake master was full of very rusty fluid. I put all the pieces in the heated parts washer and cleaned them all up. Today I worked at Vrooom and after work I used the wire wheel to clean the external surfaces and they came so clean I changed my mind and did not paint them black. I polished all the internal plungers and put on the new rubbers. I honed out the bores and they cleaned up well. I got them both back together, bit the clutch master is a little sticky. I will have to work it a bit more. I cleaned up and painted the brackets as well. Tomorrow is Mother's Day, but I hope to get out in the garage and at least get them mounted on the car. I still have to pull off the calipers and wheel cylinders and rebuild them.
