M38A1 CDN3 wheel cylinders

Post by major519 »

The Canadian jeep has upgraded 10" drums and unusual sized wheel cylinders-
The fronts are 1-1/8" and the rears are 13/16"
I was checking mine out today and it appears that I may not be able to re-use my fronts, they were seized up. I pulled them apart and may be able to hone them as the rubbers are really good.
The casting is a Wagner-Lockheed FD-36825
I think that this is an old outdated cylinder and was wondering if anyone has a modern cross reference???

Hi Chris
I put new ones in my CDN3 a while ago. I put the old cores back in the box and stuck them on a shelf someplace. I will look on Saturday and see if I can get those numbers for you. As others have said they are readily available. Please put aside 2 OMVA shirts for me in XL. I need them for Dirk and Stefan in Holland.
Cheers,
Barry

If one of you fellow can get me some modern numbers that would be great. Trust me, I am a hound for these type of searches and all the morons that work at Partsource, Cdn Tire etc are really trying my patience.
I tried Napa and was suprised they couldn't help me, maybe I had a new guy...
