I've done a search and found a couple suggestions to get the seals replaced in it, I'm going to give a couple brake places a call on Monday to ask whether this is something they can do. If they say no, then I'm going to shop around for a second hand brake cylinder as I don't feel like paying $300-400 just in parts for a new one. My questions are, A) Have you or anyone you know had any luck getting the seals in a leaking master cylinder replaced? Was it expensive? Did they hold? B) Does anyone have any experience regarding what model numbers of brake boosters are interchangable on BF-FG? I have the model B227-129 on mine, however the only second hand ones I can find on eBay have the numbers B227-121 and B227-130? Will this mean they won't fit?

k31th less WHY; more WOT Site Developer 29,439 Member For: 17y 18d Gender: Male Location: Melbourne Posted 03/05/16 11:29 AM Share Posted 03/05/16 11:29 AM The only thing I can advise is the FG is definitely different to the BA/BF. Best to call your local ford spare parts and confirm the model number, I think.
