The end where the push rod goes in is shallow. Classic parts requires it to be one inch deep so the rod doesn't fall out. Can't seem to find a replacement master cylinder locally with the deep indent. Anybody have experience or suggestions for what model or casting number I need? Wayne

If it's steel, pop the snap ring off and remove the plate and see if the indentation goes in further. Alot of masters fit different applications, some needing different depth indentations. So, they rebuild them with the same parts and cover the deep hole when a shallow is needed, sometimes, Scott Scott Ward 2 1948 1.5-ton Loadmasters The red one and The snow pusher 1 1950 3100 1 1955.1 Chevy 6500 1 1954 Chevy 6500 2-Ton 1 1955 1st Series COE 5700 1 1963 K20 (454) 1 1964 C10 (350) 1 1951 1.5-ton Dump Truck 1953 and a 1956 Ford F800 Raising a teenager is like trying to nail Jello to a tree!
