brake pumps i think we might have a problem with translation..

do you mean the brake master cylinder that sits in the chassis rail?

or the brake slave cylinders which are in the brake drums?

and sorry i do not know the answer..

The very early s11 have the same cylinders, then they changed. The proper type are readily availble now from ESM and cost about £40.


Too many Minors so little time.....

If you have the early suspension with the wheel bearings in the hubs then you will need Series MM front wheel cylinders. These are available from Bull Motif. The rear wheel cylinders are interchangeable.
If you have the Minor 1000 type suspension with separate brake drums then 948 pistons will fit and should be easily available
