Hello All,
Can anyone tell me if the dual circuit non-power brake (no front disc brakes) master cylinder is a one year wonder on the 63 Lark? I ordered a new replacement from Studebaker International last week and it came in today. To my utter frustration nothing fits. It could be that they neglected to include adaptors. But the two holes for screwing on the steel brake lines are about twice the size of my line fittings, and the rear hole is actually larger than the front hole. Also the bottom hole for fitting the brake light switch is too small. Went down to Advance Auto with the new master cylinder no they couldn't help me with any adaptors.
I checked again and SI lists one (very expensive) one for 63 and another much less expensive one for 64-66 cars. And by the pictures the holes seem more like the proper size.
