master cylinder stud question

[shadango]

Got a new (reman) master cylinder today and realized that it doesnt include the mounting studs....

Is there a trick to getting the old ones off the old one without trashing them ? Or do I need to locate new ones?

Seems like they should come with the master cylinder.....but they didnt....

they just press into the master , put a nut on the end of the stud & tep them out with a hammer , they are not in that tight

[shadango]

Ok, will try that......although as I recall mine are a little crusty....hopefully they will stand up to the abuse...

Any chance these are a "standard" sort of replacement item easily found?

[Chryco Psycho]

I have not found a readily available replacement

[shadango]

No worries....pounded right out with just a little persuasion.

Thanks yet again Chryco!

(How did people get info like this before Al Gore invented the internet!?!?!?!)

LOL  I hear ya on that...been there done that on other stuff....I screwed up plenty of stuff in my youth.....almost feel like I have been "training" all these years for this car...
