Ive sleeved lots of Wagner type /PBR master cylinders using bronze bushings from a bearing shop....generally take two ,as one wont be long enough...........price of brake sleeving is out of this world for the work involved..........used to be $30 for a plain wheel cylinder and $100 for a dual line master,or a big 1&1/2'' PBR cylinder.............brother says he was quoted over $1000 for a PBRVH44 booster ..........did it himself at a total cost of around $20

Hi PDU, thank you for the number, I had another one for him (could have been his wife’s)and his home number. And having seen John rebuild a master cylinder and the equipment he used, it would be interesting to see how someone did it with bronze bushes, especially the final honing of the bore. Always keen to learn

House number I relayed to you should be 75 not 46 grumpy gumpy. My wife got hopelessly lost trying to find her way off the main drag and became so confused it was almost a phone divorce
as she said she would never, ever, pick up anything for me anymore. AND that was before we even realised the street number was incorrect.
Just another page in my continuing list of cock-ups!
Fortunately our daughter calmed her down somewhat and went back with her from Aberfoyle Park and, after going to the wrong house, I relayed John's phone number to them and the gear is now in their hands.

I couldn’t tell you his house street number but I know exactly which house it is, we were neighbours for 37 years
