I would like to change the old style Esqual brakes with a Matco system.

In this project the problem arises when choosing the way to adapt the old master cylinder with a new one.

I have  two MC 5 with internal reservoir but I believe will be hard to sostitute the old one's with these.

I believe the model MC 4 should work properly 

Any one on the list started with this job ? Is there any picture or scheme to copy ?

The help of the list will be essential.

Thanks in advance 

Luigi

Thank-you Allan for the answer.

Any chance to have a picture of the new set of wheels ?

I need just to see how you change the axle of the wheel and the caliper pad.

Luigi,  

   

We have adapted several esquals with the matco wheels and calipers, but kept the upper motoguzie master cylinders. Brake pressure seemed to be sufficient but not what the matco MCs will do.  

Other wise we have changed out an entire set of pedals to install the matco MCs this was a bit of project but not impossible.  

   

Let me know if you go this route the Lightning pedal assembly will work in the esqual.  

   

Thanks

Thank you Nick for the prompt answer and the help you give to the Lightning/Esqual people.

The first intention is to change the whole system.

The problem arises where to attack the bigger master cylinder. I need to build a sled or something else.

For the wheel axle the problem is no so big.

Take in account I dont want to disembark the engine to work on the brake.

Any help will be appreciated.

Regards

Luigi
