Thumbs up Master Cylinder rebuild kit?

Anyone ever seen these for the W126s?

I'm with DOC on this one. Some of us are proud of our diyer skills, but "wondering" just how good a job I "may" have down rebuilding brake calibers/master cyls. isn't something I care to wonder about.

I looked into MB guaranteed rebuilt calibers a few yrs. ago.

This MB shop, located on the west coast had the best price I could find. They may have a similar offer for what you're after.

I third what Doc and Mike say. With 38 years car experience, Brakes were one thing NOT to be thrifty on. The tandem master cylinders were very hard to get to work right after a rebuild. I won't rebuild wheel cylinders. I WILL rebuild a caliper...IF.... it is in decient shape.
