SIII 109 2.6 Brake Parts

Rears are 'handed' and the fronts are as well from memory.
So 2 LH front, 2 RH front, 1 LH rear and 1 RH rear.

If ordering from UK you can buy a set. LWBKIT2 | Brake Overhaul Kit - LWB (6cyl engine)

Colin is correct, (what else should we expect from such a fine source of knowledge!). I just purchased a set, they are definitely handed. Good luck! :D

Think my last series set came from repco!

Just went and checked - what do you know - I was wrong! First time for everything I suppose...;)

What tripped me up is that I pulled all the front wheel cylinders off, cleaned them up and stuffed them back on - they all look the same at first glance, but the mounting holes make them 'handed' as mentioned.

I just whacked them back on and must have got lucky grabbing the right ones at the right time.:)

You learn something new every day.

Most brake places will get them for you.
What you need to do is look around for a 'trade supplier' and have a word with them. Often they will sell to you as long as you don't go telling everyone.

Being in industrial sales I find a lot of trade suppliers and if you ask, you often get lucky.
I've found a brake component supplier, disks, pads, shoes & brake tube but not wheel & master cylinders. They also re-line hard to get brake shoes.
An electrical supplier where I can get Narva at trade.
Yesterday I stumbled across an outlet shop for ProQuip Jerry cans.

Anyone do cylinder sleeves in stainless these days?

Yep. Most brake places will get them sleved in stainless for you.

I recently purchased a set of front 6cyl wheel cylinders from Brit-car in the UK along with some little brake lines. I payed $136.00 delivered where $76 of the cost was freight. If you wanted it not sent DHL it would have been cheaper, but I wanted them within 2 weeks.
