psigyo Posted June 2, 2009 Share Posted June 2, 2009 i needed some help in after caging the spring on the brakes how would i get it out of the cylinder Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
itlldo1 Posted June 2, 2009 Share Posted June 2, 2009 VERY CAREFULLY. I had one w a broken spring, but I decided to purchase a new one and not take a chance with the old one coming apart unexpectedly. I think the entire new can was $65.00 from NAPA (3030?) for my 72 L800. I've heard stories of these coming apart even while being caged-something I didn't want to experience firsthand.

Lenny Posted June 2, 2009 Share Posted June 2, 2009 I've had one come apart in my hand. Since then I just throw them away and put a new one on when needed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mopar Posted June 16, 2009 Share Posted June 16, 2009 (edited) well i rather replace the chamber.if youtube shake hands with danger you will see the force a spring from a brake chamber.also i don't know if the '85 has the clamps on the chamber or not.along with that i don't if napa or other supplyers sells the springs to the chambers.to me it is safer to replace the chamber. I've had one come apart in my hand. Since then I just throw them away and put a new one on when needed.
