| Post subject: | Brake master cylinders |
The Thorp plans have a half scale drawing of the brake pedal installation. Scaling it showed the masters to be 6-5/8” long. Matco cylinders are 7-3/4”. They have a shorter version but only by 1/2”. What master cylinders are being used? Is anyone altering the brake pedal design to use longer cylinders? Any help would be appreciated. Thanks. |

I used Cleveland brakes. I think it was the brake/master cylinder set for a Cessna 150. Maybe I got lucky because I didn't measure them and they bolted right in. |
