I found this in a thread (IMG:style_emoticons/default/piratenanner.gif) :
...put a brace on the master cyl to keep the metal from bending when you really push on the pedal... Does anybody has more details? Links? Picture or even parts? Thank you! |

Has anyone here built a brace for a 19mm M/C when using a 911 aluminum crossmember? That is something I've got on my list of things to do...

McMark posted some videos showing just how much flex is there. It looks like a worthy fix.

Your video was Great! The amount of flex was MIND BLOWING! Not only should it make the brakes feel "Funky", I would bet over time could lead to failure of the mount and the brake pedal going to the floor when it pushes master cylinder right through! YIKES!! Best, Terry |
