Hello,

just a quick question on the brake cylinder as described on page 46-07 Step 2&3.

Both cylinder are identical that means I have two "left sides" because the bleeder valve on the right side points up and not down. Was it the same with yours? Also it calls for AD822-4D elbow fittings but they wont fit in the threaded holes in the cylinder (hole is too small).
2.Question Front tire tube installation, did you remove all washers even the one which protects the tube see attached picture (washer on the right).

Michael, page 46-07 step 2 tells you to remove one of the fittings from the
top to the bottom effectively creating a "right side". Have you correctly
identified the elbow fitting, (AN822-4D) I don't recall a problem here.

Michael,

Yes, it's the same, you need to remove a bleeder and move it to the other side to create a "right" caliper. The plans have instructions on doing this.

Yes, remove all the washers from the tube and beofre you install it for good, make a bend so the fill valve does not hit the fork unless you swapped out the wheel assembly and are not using the Van's supplied wheel.
