Hi all,
I'm new to this forum, anyway, I've recently bought a 998cc 1987 Par Lane, always wanted a mini, but it falied it MOT and it needs some new rear wheel cylinders, but I'm not sure which ones to get, would these fit:

(Sorry if your not allowed external links)

Also am I correct in thinking you need two of these for each brake? Also I'm picking it up on Sunday so can't go out and have a close look, sorry, just tell me if anymore info is needed and I will try and find out. And hoping to get parts ordered today.

Cheers

They'll do ya :D

Have look at the condition of the metal pipes on the radius arms they can split if when you try to unscrew the cylinders so if they are corroded it may be easier just to replace them.

Definately the correct ones for that model! The rear shoes should also be replaced, as they will more than likely now be contaminated with Brake fluid.
