Replaced/Updated rear wheel brake cylinders

[3nSahalee]

After discovering the dreaded NLA attached to the original brake cylinders part # for my '68 2000, with no replacement given it was time for research.

Someone mentioned somewhere that the e21 cylinders looked identical to those from an NK, so off on the hunt I went.

Part # 34211117104 is an ABSOLUTE IDENTICAL MATCH.

My local dealer (Bellevue BMW) wanted the OUTRAGEOUS amount of $176.00 ---- EACH!!!!!!!!!!!

So. I called Steve at BluntTech for a realistic quote.

- 2 ATE, O.E.M., BMW labeled cylinders shipped to my desk for $58.00!!!!!!

(don't forget to order the 4 bolts and washers, too--- i forget to)

If you are not utilizing Steve at BluntTech for your vintage bmw parts needs you are throwing money away!

If you start using Steve at BluntTech from this recommendation, i only request that you split the savings with me 50/50. (haha)

Rear brakes this week, front brakes this weekend. Initial test drive soon.

Keeping the classics alive. One vintage BMW at a time.
