OK, let's see if I forgot anything:
4 hoses 4 brake cylinders 1 Overnight delivery on above items 1 master cylinder 1 set rear brake shoes 8 brake springy holder thingies and cups 4 drum inspections (they were all fine) 1 less than extraordinary 1/2" drive breaker bar from the local FLAPS (broken) 1 more than extraordinary 1/2" drive breaker bar (Craftsman) from Sears 1 36mm Socket 1 three foot pipe (the handle from my Hi-Lift jack) 1 section of hose for bleeding the brakes (have to buy tomorrow) 2 large cotter pins for the rear axle nuts 1 6mm or 7mm wrench for bleeding the brakes (have to check the toolkit in the truck in the morning) 1 Ball jar for bleeding the brakes 2 big containers of brake fluid 2 cans (buy one, get one free) brake parts cleaner spray 1 piece of mind that my car will stop correctly when I'm doneMan, so far that busted brake cylinder has cost me $275. And I thought it was going to cost about $75..
Maybe VW parts aren't quite as cheap as I thought. :-)
(At least I got a good breaker bar, 36mm socket and a can of brake parts cleaner out of the deal).
