![]() In my spare time/boredom, I studied the Mopar master cylinder documentation for the late 60 through early 70s. Rare samples like 22291191 were tossed a few years before I was hired. Unfortunately over the years before I began working there in 1990, there had been several housecleanings, and obsolete part numbers, parts we had discontinued from our line, they had tossed the samples. We kept the samples after they were analyzed. This process went on for decades, we had documentation going back into the 50's. We had researchers who would study the part numbers of all the car makers brake parts, and when a new part number was found, one of these parts was ordered through car dealer's parts department, and the part analyzed and documented by engineering for potential addition to our product line. My information came from documentation I had access to when I worked for the company that made Raybestos and United brake parts. Re: Ok Let's talk about A-Body Master Cylinders Obviously the car would have been an early production car, but was that master cylinder installed on the line, or did the original master cylinder go bad shortly after the car started getting thrashed by magazine editors and replaced with what mechanics had available? Not saying something like that never happened, there is a road test of a hemi cuda in a fall of '69 car magazine I've seen, and the underhood photo in the article you can see a '68-'69 C body disc brake master cylinder is what is on the car. I doubt a safety critical item like a master cylinder would be substituted at will by an assembly line worker without engineering approval. Of course we all know the assembly workers used whatever part was available on a given day. The casting number 3461187 (1-1/32") master cylinder was sort of a 1 size fits all for most 71-75 power disc brake MoparsĪlso 70-71 Cuda/Challanger used 294444476 and 477.Ģ944476 is the Chrysler part number for the 2229191 casting number 70-71 hemi disc brake master.Ģ944477 is the part number for the 2226821 casting number (1-1/8") bore master cylinder for non hemi power disc brake '70 B bodies It's my understanding that the 2229171 was used on all disc brake cars through 1975.ħ0 E body only.
