Rear brake cylinders

Post by lyletrudell »

I just tried Civic rear brake cylinders on my 600 Coupe and they fit!
The Civic is the same part R/L.
The only difference I can see is the 600 has a bleeder screw missing on the right one, they run 2 lines instead.
So if we use a "T" fitting on the rear axle like most cars do, then we can use the Civic parts.
Anybody confirm this info?

Brad, good the parts I bought can be used!
Will have to see what metric "T" fitting will work, do you remember?
Hey, Brad send the info to Steve, future Honda owners will appreciate it.

I actually don't remember everything,it has been a few years since I did it. But I do remember using 73 Civic cylinders and having to do some brake line fabrication with a tee.
