Default Re: 1940 Front Wheel Cylinders

Joe ...yes new kit with seals from C & G made in USA.

I used some brake cleaner to clean out the cylinder and I then used a very light coating of the packing grease on the inside and assembled. They slide well.

Another question....at the bottom of the new shoes....there is a hole that an insert goes into. I had to take out the ones from the old shoes and cleaned them up. Do those inserts go in a special way ?

The shoe with more service braking material goes to the front. Am I correct on that ?

I really appreciate all your help !!!

Mike
