While I wait for the weather to get better.... so I can get back to testing my cooling system problems....

I pulled the one leaking wheel cylinder, right front, and I shipped it off to White Post for sleeving...you can't walk into a NAPA and get a re-manufactured one...so off it went to White Post...

Got it back today....4 week turn around and $85 for the sleeve and $20 for shipping and handling.....

Looks good I'm sure it's going to work.....can't wait to get back on the road to test all systems.....All of the little pistons had that little hole in them...not sure why, but the other cylinders work fine....

Did they use brass or stainless. I have heard that brass conforms better and is less likely to leak internally?

I'm not sure what they used....but from the pictures, that gold color on the sleeve leads me to believe it's brass...

I'm going to bleed the system today and we're going to see what happens...
