master cylinder rod

can you buy the master cylinder push rod....thing....the one that goes into the cylinder and connects to the brake pedal link

..........mine is rather corroded and I havent spotted it for sale on the usual websites......do they come with new master cylinders? or rebuild kits?

or will I have to clean mine up and reuse?

thanks

 

Get a firm grip on your rod in a workmate and give it a good doing with a wire brush in a cordless drill. They come up lovely

 

I'll shot blast it at work if you cant buy new ones ;D......provided I havent chucked it out or bent in out of shape :

 

thanks bro

I did think about fitting a servo .....but for now will stick with the standard one I have - I'm used to non servo brakes on my MG!

looks like I'll have to dig the old rod out (ooh er Mrs!)

 

I've got one if you can't find it.

 

thanks guys

....and thanks for the offer Zed

I had a look in the tool box it was kicking around in and which I kept shutting the lid onto it : ;D ..........but its not there

even though it was rusty, I doubt I would have thrown it out. I tend to keep just about every thing no matter how damaged, corroded or beyond repair it is ;D ....I do hoard rusty bolts I have no intention of fitting again .......but some times these things come in useful as reference if nothing else

I'm sure it must be in a box or bag with the other rusty bits I'm not going to use...I'll have another rummage for it at the weekend

If I cant find it will pm you zed
