squirebill Posted October 3, 2016 Report Share Posted October 3, 2016 1949 B1B. Looking for the best source for brake system components. Bought complete set of wheel cylinder from Andy Bernbaum two years ago and just installed them now. All went fine as far as fit goes but having trouble with large bore of left front wheel cylinder leaking past the piston cup. Any ideas how to remedy this situation? Looked at Vintage Power Wagon site and they have piston cups they sell individually. I'm torn on whether to buy the piston cups or buy a complete wheel cylinder from them. They list a wheel cylinder for the 1/2 ton Power wagon that has the proper size piston bores but for 11" brakes (B1B has 10" brakes on the front) and I'm wondering if it might be interchangeable for the B1B wheel cylinder. Any thoughts? Best regards Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Captain Neon Posted October 3, 2016 Report Share Posted October 3, 2016 With a part number just about any local parts store should be able to cross reference and get you a new wheel cylinder. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
