Re: 3c mk111 brakes

Lovely thanks for that, just it seems to lose a bit of water when stood up into sump or cylinder so I think liner issue so will rebuild at later date. On the brakes I seem to recall there being holes in the floor plate above the axle inline with the brake linkage threaded rod I guess this is the adj...

Re: 3c mk111 brakes

Thanks for that, that is really helpful. Is there any diagrams for the brake discs inside the axle as I'd quite like to strip it out just to make sure that everything is ok in there and the discs don't need replacing? Also from the machine serial number has anyone got any idea what engine it has? Is...

Re: 3c mk111 brakes

Thanks. It seems to hold brake fluid but no pressure on the pedal so I'm assuming master cylinder seals would be a good start. The machine number is 137786/5. I am going to take the floor out and strip and clean all the assemblies and linkages to check they are all ok. Where is the best place to get...

3c mk111 brakes

I have just had my new project jcb 3c mk111 1980 powertrain turn up yesterday and among the important jobs the brakes don't work at all I'm not sure we're to start as it has hydraulic system at the pedal and axle. Dose any one know where to get parts for master and slave cylinders as I imagine seals...

I'm assuming that this is a liner issue so I'm looking at rebuilding the engine and was wondering how easy the liners are to replace and set up or if I need special tools t...

Re: JCB 3C or similar

I am based in bristol area. And ideally some where in the region of 3k. I wish I had not scrapped my other one a couple of years ago due to top pin on back actor being repaired but out of line resulting in bent ram.
