So i need to replace the wheel cylinders in the front left drum of my clubby (1975) does anyone know if I need 1" bore or 15/16" bore cylinders? would it marked somewhere on the cylinder to check? Whats the difference anyway? Thanks |

Measure the diameter of one of the pistons. Buy 4 of the same size you have now. If you change size, you will need to file the mounting holes in the backplate to fit as they are slightly different. But it's not a big deal if you have to. Refer recent thread here on the same subject. |

Thanks Doc, I should have searched initially, just being slack i guess. I sounds like leyland changed from 1" to 15/16" in around 1974. so i guess i'll probably need the 15/16" size |

Thorlek as doc mentioned Karcraft have both sizes just ring and ask them which ones you need they will know. Very fast delivery and great prices. Cheers Bill |
