wheel cylinders??

[Morrisminormo]

Hi
Are the front wheel cylinders the same on the 948cc 7" shoes and the 1098 8" shoes?

my car is the 948cc and I have a spare from my old minor 1098cc and want to know if I can use it. I have been on ESM website and they appear to have 2 types but they don't state what the difference??

many thanks

I know they look the same/similar but there must be a difference as ESM show genuine and non genuine for both pictures?

go for genuine
the non genuine are patten part and dont last

They are the same, note the rear cylinders are different between 950/1100 and so if changing these they must match the other side!

thank you very much

They are the same - but of course left and right hand versions. As others have mentioned - if buying front cylinders avoid the pattern parts - although pattern rears appear to get better press.

Pattern rears are fine as they are made to the same design, but the pattern front have a different set up inside the piston and as said already the dont last.
