Wheel cylinder fitting ??

[lowkey620]

Hey guys , I've been looking for that famous Y type fitting coming with the wheel cylinder but can't find it . Called every local shops and check on rockauto but they are discontinued. Does someone know a place or a website still having them ??

If the fellow above does not, shoot me a pm.  I think I saw these recently so I actually should be able to find them.

I recently picked up a '78 620 and I'm also looking for the "Y" connector for the wheel cylinders.  I've looked all over the ratsun classifieds and can't find them anywhere.  Any help would be appreciated.

Have a look at the early 720 rear cylinder. The bleeder fits directly into the cylinder and both are 5/8" diameter. I've noticed this before and always wondered if they could be used.

You mean the part that bolts directly to the wheel cylinder with a banjo bolt? Or the part that bolts to the axle housing to split the brake lines?

 

I have a handful of the banjo fittings with the bleeders on them, but I won't get rid of them. I've been hanging onto them for years, waiting to find a use for them...

I’m looking for the part that bolts to the wheel cylinder with the banjo.  The one I was working with is aluminum and the steel bleeder screw had been broken off by a previous owner.  Tried drilling it out with no luck.

 

would you be willing to part with one or two?

I’ll take a look into the 720 cylinder.  Appreciate the help.

They are generally sold with the wheel cylinder....

The ones I have are from a 320. Which means they will be SAE, not metric.

I have some on order.  I did notice that some websites (to include the raybestos brand) have reviews stating that the "Y" connector does not come with the wheel cylinder.

You definitely have to be careful of that....
