Talk Morgan Forums Morgan Sports Cars Maintenance & Servicing Rear Brake Cylinder Replacement

I have to replace one of the rear brake cylinders on my 1972 4/4. It is very like this one:

Everything I've read about doing the job mentions that they're held on by clips and that they're fiddly to get off but I can't find any diagrams or photos anywhere. Can anyone point me in the right direction?

If you scroll down on this there is some text but no diagram

Thanks John but that's those are the articles I've seen. If nothing shows up I'll photograph myself when I strip it.

Hi, I've done this but didn't take photos (I know, sorry I can't believe I didn't make notes or take photos) . It is a fiddle and there is a knack. First thing get the back plate and clips clean, there's not much clearance on these. One of the clips has little lugs on the end, before you remove them check where these are so you can get them back the same. Prize the one clip over these as you pull the other one out. Make sure when you replace them the lugs lock over. The clips are bent to form a spring, take note which way they are as you take them off.
I thought I'd found something on the net about these but I've been looking again and can't find it.
Good luck

Hi,
the brakes look very similar to the TR6 assembly.....
Maybe you try the next two links:

From what I remember that's it. Great, I'll keep that link for future reference myself.
Thanks

Here's a picture:

Thanks everyone, that's exactly what I was after.
