Wilwood’s Remote Tandem master cylinders provide one of the safest ways to actuate four wheel or dual caliper axle brake systems. The cylinder features 50/50 output from a 1.00" bore with 1.10" stroke. This master cylinder can be bolted directly to Wilwood's single mount pedals. The kit is shipped complete with the master cylinder, 4 ounce reservoirs, remote brackets and 3.38" x 5/16-24 pushrod. Reservoirs can be direct mounted or remote mounted using the include bracket assemblies. 260-7563 also includes 2 additional 3/8" x 30" fluid resistant hoses for remote mounting.
The master cylinder reservoir should always hold enough fluid to allow the brake pads to completely wear away without the risk of running out of fluid. As a disc brake pad wears, the caliper piston will extend out of its bore. As the caliper piston extends, the master cylinder fluid level will drop in order to fill the caliper bore with brake fluid. If the reservoir is too small, there is a possibility that the master cylinder can run out of fluid and the brakes will fail.
