Hi Tom,

I purchased a dual circuit master from Rock Auto many years ago for my 65 Lincoln.

I will try to find the part number, I know it is a Raybestso (sp) brand though.

You can get a kit from the "usual" Lincoln vendors at triple the price......

Cheers Angelo

Hi Angelo,
that sounds great. Will the Brake Booster fit? And is there a difference between the ´66 and the´65?

Thanks
Tom

Hi Tom,

I had the original booster stripped down, then I powdercoated the booster and new master cylinder so they looked the same.

It works great!

I will be at the panel beaters in the morning and try to get the part number for you.

Cheers Angelo

Check out MP brakes. They have many conversion kits. You will probably need to call them for more details on your specific vehicle. I could do this for you if you feel your english won't suffice. Shoot me an e-mail or give me a ring on the phone.

Master Brake Cylinder Question

Ok, so after 3 weeks of searching, and not being able to come up with a brake master cylinder, does anyone know off hand what other master cylinders will fit? It shouldnt be that hard to swap, but it does look like length could be an issue
