Looking for a dual master cyl that will bolt right in. 53 Ford car drum/drum non power. I seen one in a post before but cannot find it now. Thanks
I know the later 50's Ford cars can take a '67 Mustang dual chamber non-disk non-power master cylinder as a bolt-on. The master in my '53 Ford looks just like the one in my '59 Edsel, so I would ***ume that would work for the '53 as well, although I can't say I've ever tried it. I think my Mustang master was $17 without a core so it'd be worth a try. Those aftermarket ones are always too pricey unless you need power brakes or are adding disk.
I installed a 1967 mustang drum/drum master cylinder last year on my '53 mainline... its pretty straight forward. Also installed a brake light switch on the brake pedal at the same time... I highly recommend that over the pressure switches. I'll see if I can find you the part number for the switch if you want.
