So for the last couple of days I have been doing the brakes on my truck. The fronts just needed pads and a good cleaning while the rears need everything. Brake shoes, hardware, wheel cylinders, axle seals etc etc. In my attempt to swap out wheel cylinders the new ones are 1/4 wider preventing them from seating correctly and not fitting between the bracket on the backing plate. So I break down the old and the new cylinders to see if the piston sizes are the same so I can rebuild the old cylinders. Well after a good degreasing I realize these may be the original wheel cylinders that came with the truck when new. Talk about character. I just think today's parts are made to be disposed of while the old parts where built to be rebuilt and reused. I hope they don't leak once rebuilt. I look at the casting and think if they could talk what kind of stories would come from the miles these have seen.
