I am rebuilding a master brake cylinder in my 1946 140. It appears to be Cleveland Master Cylinder with
Push Type with Reservoir with the cover held on with a snap ring. I can find all of the AN6227B O-rings on Spruce. However, the reservoir O-ring has no number associated with it and the "Cleveland" one on Spruce is listed for an incredible price of $21.95!
This is just a simple flat edged ring about 1-3/4 x 1/16 (part #17 on attached file).
Does anyone know where these can be purchased for a reasonable price?

Re: Master brake cylinder rebuild
So, square cross section? Can you get the exact inside ID? Drop it on something cone shaped and measure where it sits.

Re: Master brake cylinder rebuild
Yes, good point. Actually it should be exactly the same as the cover plate - will check tomorrow. Thanks
