Go to vintagepowerwagon.com, I bought brake parts from them, they have the stuff you are looking for.

OR look up M-series re-build, Charles the owner is very knowledgable and will be able to steer you in the right direction.

Are, you needing a M/cyl for the half-ton or the later WC's If I remember the early WC's required a sloped or angled reservoir. I think the flat-top will work on the early WC's. I have the later WC m/cyls NIB for $85.00 plus shipping. No core needed. If I can help let me know.

tractor what do you want for a core. really not sure what to do. Some people say an m37 wc will work but others say it wont. Will it or not?

My WC-51 has an M37 master cylinder on it and it works, but I'm replacing it with a proper WC part when I rebuild the brakes. The master cylinder on a 3/4 ton WC sits slightly at an angle and the reservoir on an M37 master cylinder can not be filled all the way when used in this application. The proper master cylinder's reservoir sits at an angle in relation to the actual cylinder so it's level and can be filled all the way.

I USED to get all my master cyls. for Vintage Power Wagons, didn't know that they were out of stock! Anyway White Post Restorations will resleeve you old cyl. and guarantee it. Then all you need is a kit, which are readily available. There are several places that do the resleeving, master and wheel cyls. Check Hemmings Motor News for more places.

Try Fred Potter at Adirondack Dodge in NY. I had bought one from him for my M37 and it was just installed on a buddies WC62 with no problems. Depends how anal you want to get during your restoration. I've gotten stuff from both John at Midwest and Fred at Adirondack for my WC51. Both top notch outfits. Freds stuff is new current manufacture but may not look the same as NOS.
