Hi All

I know this has been brought up before regarding disc brakes.
Rear brakes to front connection and Front brakes to rear connection on master cylinder.

But on drum brakes on a Mehari is it the same rear to front and front to rear connections on master cylinder or vice versa.

Peter,
Meharis are Dyane- based, so the connections to a dual circuit master cylinder are as you've described.
Note that if the linings on the rear shoes are not located symmetrically, those with the cutaway part should be fitted at the front.

Hi Ken.
Thank you for the reply.
Sorry for my late reply.
Its not a dual circuit master cylinder so it so it won't make any difference will it.

Regards Peter.

Correct, with a single circuit master cylinder, the same system pressure is delivered to all slave cylinders simultaneously. :)
