plastic brake/clutch fluid reservoirs (101/series 3)

Tom Woods uttered summat worrerz funny about:

Club parts do em.... time may be an issue though.

Lee D

it would be a lot quicker and easier if i can get them from somewhere like bowers (who also do eberspacher bits apparently!)

i'd rather not have to pull them off first in order to take them there to identify though.

Digital photo and a PDA!

Lee D

hmm. could do..

Club had them reproduced because dual reservoir was no longer available. Part no 595447 is a 101 unique part (not used elsewhere in Rover at least). Single reservoir is a standard lucas part LR no

90577636. You could try Craddock, Blanchard or Dunsfold but best bet is club.

Or you can have mine for £4500 and I'll throw in the rest! ;-)

Also the dual one is brake and clutch, the single is brake. They crack up due to action of sunlight, most of us keep them covered with a rag.

the part numbers are in the club pricelist too now ive looked properly! i didnt know the club had reproduced them.

too late for mine to cover it now. might bend a little shield up out of ally (or design one and persuade steve to bend them one day ;) )

I didnt know they were split like that. I thought they would have kept the brake in one!. i suppose i could use 3 of the single reservoirs rather than a single and a double...

You COULD mod a single into a double...

Steve

does it not have a central seperated reservoir like the metal brake/clutch reservoir on the 2A? (one of which would probably work in the 101 as the plastic one is probably a newer version of it)

I'm guessing modding would at the least involve me drilling a hole in the bottom and fitting some of the correctly threaded fittings through it? It would probably leak then though!. I guess i would need a male-male coupler type bit and a nut to fit on the inside and then a couple of washers to try and seal it.

I could turn you one up if you want. Say 1" diameter ?

Never have found a decent low cost maker for custom brake pots. :-(

Steve

1" for which bit?

No :( i remeber talk of getting some made but they always cost a lot

I've found the lucas girling number: 64046304 and will see if i can get it locally but unlikely if the club actually get em made.

I might have to get it from the club.

LOL - go for it :)

So do PDS!

I've got them from Bowers before - the bloke (or one of them, anyway) found them in his book with no trouble. I'd stock them, but demand is rather on the low side.....

Richard

Not from LR, but Lucas make them (or did, last March). They are used on a number of other classic vehicles.

Richard

There's a brake specialist in Rochdale that will most likely have them, if you want I will mail you their number.

what happened to the plan to produce stainless steel ones?

Thought that were just? the lids?
