I got one from Misterauto a couple of years ago - less than £80. It took 3 attempts(2 refunds) and various 'phone calls, but got there eventually. Might be worth a try. ----- Original Message ----- From: Sonia To: Quantum Owners Group Sent: Wednesday, December 12, 2018 12:18 PM Subject: [Quantum Owners] 2+2 (XR2) Master Brake Cylinder
Hi Looking for advice on brake master cylinder on our 2+2 based on 1989 Mk2 XR2. Fluid is leaking badly from master cylinder so almost no brake pedal! Got it to local garage (who I have used for nearly 20 years and trust) who are having trouble locating a replacement part. Issue is Ford (bless 'em) changed the master cylinder from 1986 when a 'rising servo' and shorter master cylinder was fitted. Prior to that it was a longer cast item. The earlier ones are readily available but with the rising servo (it points more upwards) there isn't room for the longer master cylinder. The only later cylinders we have found are on ebay and £350!! Refurbishment kits are available for about £15 which may fix our existing cylinder but it is not clear whether there are separate kits for the early and later cylinders So, does anyone a) know of a source of the later master brake cylinders at a more sensible price b) know if there is more than 1 refurbishment kit and how to tell which is which c) know of another master cylinder which would fit with minimal additional effort Many thanks Sonia & Pete -- -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Quantum Owners Group" group.
