Hi all, we have a 1953 3100 and we are replacing all wheel cylinders and brake shoes and the master cylinder. Also replacing lines as required. New master cylinder also. Ran into this problem, when removing wheel cylinder on right rear it had a brake line block installed to the cylinder with a bolt and then the axle brake line connected to it.Went to left rear and different type of wheel cylinder was installed without a brakeline block.
Installed the right rear with the brake line block on it. So now I need to find out where to purchase a brake line block for the left side. I would think that one should be installed on the left rear also. One other problem is the old master cylinder had 2 ports; one for the left front line and other is for the remainder of the brake system. New master cylinder only has one port. So it looks that I need a block to attach to master cylinder with two ports. Hope all you fellow stovebolters can point me where I might purchase the needed parts or possibly a work around. Went to three auto parts stores and got 2 blank looks and one after checking his computer said can not find anything. Thanks in advance for help and guaidance. Dave
