That certainly would be nice. This problem started once a company decided to have the wheel cylinders reproduced who ever that was knowing it was going to be done off shore obviously did not spend any time on quality control.
Since I drive my Deuce roadster more than most 100,0000 miles plus so far in the past 50 years the safety aspects of this issue is a big deal to me. I knew going into this the off shore stuff may not be up to the task. But I decided to try a set of wheel cylinders hoping I could save some time and effort. That turned out to be a dumb idea. Lesson learned.
