Would the pressed in sleeve seal well enought to keep brake fluid from seeping? OR /and do they press fit and sweat fit with BRAZING OR SILVER SOLDERING? | | |

I can't seem to recall who it was though. Seems it was the one that does brass liners and not the stainless of White Post type. Maybe if you check some magazines for an ad. I remember they exlplain doing stepped units and disc type and lots of stuff. Sorry, CRS is setting in big time here! :rolleyes: :p

Unless you have something that is very rare W/C should be available and usually cheaper then sleeving. Let us know I am sure we can help you find a new replacement.
