I am trying to restore my first vehicle to reliable running condition. I have repalced front and rear brakes and am attempting to replace the master cylinder. I bought a remanufactured master cylinder from NAPA and it has no resivour cups. The ones on the old Master cylinder dont want to come off so before I break them trying to remove them I am looking for replacements. Parts stores and dealers have no source for these. Any ideas where I can get the pair? LMC Trucks, Jegs and Summit Racing were dead ends as well...Help! ! !

I was able to get my cups off and used hose clamps to keep them off. But if you can't get yours off, I'd try JC Whitney.

The best I could find is a whole master cylinder that comes with the reservoirs.

I have a back up set if needed. Just soak, and carefully remove yours. They should come out.
