Sounds like I have a brake master cylinder problem.

So, I've found lots of numbers in the GMC Parts Eschange Book

Our coach has Front Wheel Disk Brakes, Disks on 1 of rear axles and Drums on the
other rear axle.

What is the best Master Cylinder for me ??? I'd prefer new to a rebuilt.

Thanks

Ray

Ray, I have that big one on mine now. Not sure what they call it but someone will tell you. Have to get the bracket for it too. Mine came from Jim K. I bought it and installed before we did the 4 rear discs. Was nothing to it as I did it myself. The one Bob put on for me lasted almost a year. I think it came from an Autozone type store, rebuilt maybe.

P-30. I have one on my coach too and, like Dan, six wheel disc brakes and the Chuck Aulgur Reaction Arm set-up. Not sure you need all that capacity for four discs and two drums though. We'll have to depend on someone else's knowledge on that.
