Re: [FWDLK] Master Cylinder Mysteries



Joe -
 
I just checked the online catalogs of both Inline Tube and Classic Tube. It may have been Classic Tube, since they list 58 Fury, while there's no mention in the Inline Tube catalog. I bought the lines about five years ago, so it's a bit fuzzy at this point. Whichever one it was, they fit perfectly.
 
BTW, don't use the Right Stuff. They originally said they had them, but what they sent was not even close.

Another mystery: The parts book shows a brake hose connecting the master to
the 'T' (part no 1739246). I purchased what is supposed to be a 1739246 from
a vendor on ebay (Mitchell), but the thing is only about 5" long. Not nearly
long enough to mate with the T.

As luck would have it, I just fought to replace that very same line on my Chrysler.  The system I replaced had a short flexible line and a piece of steel tubing end-to-end.
 
The reason for replacement was that the flex tube had swollen closed where it was crimped to the fittings.  When I attempted to remove it, the metal snapped like a twig.
 
Are you happy with inline tube?  I need to replace all my lines, too.
 
Thanks,
