Does anyone know if this is for a mini ?

Post by rhys-89 »

Hi all I bought a group lot on eBay off mini bits and this was in with it . It's a vertical style servo but not sure if it would suit a mini or other vehicle the guy I bought it from had an old Bedford van and a few minis so not sure if it may be from that

its is but its utter rubbish

its a black band master cylinder with the warning switch in the side, they are very unreliable, particually when they are old and have been stood for a while, the upper portion of the cylinder rusts and when the pedal is pressed the rubber seals grab all the rust which ruins them and the bores.

they are just about impossible to repair as well as the cylinder damage cannot be fixed and a new seal kit (which is expensive) only helps for a while.

its not something I would either use, or feel comfortable selling on to be honest
please note, these are my own, individual sales, nothing whatsoever to do with my employer, minispares
