Quick question for all,

Is a Aisin 1" bore Brake Master Cylinder (http://www.trail-gear.ca/default.cfm?fa=products&prodcategoryid=66) bigger than my stock 91 4cyl MC?

Could this be an upgrade to up my poor-medium braking performance?

(I have 2 pistons calipers)

Body Damage is Cool
When I upgraded my '84 to V6 brake components (M/C, booster, calipers and LC rotors) I was very pleased with the improved performance. I was pulling a small trailer (3000 lbs gvwr) much of the time and carrying about 300 lbs in the bed. I found the braking very good with those loads. On the other hand, my '89 4runner has all those good parts and yet is still not as good. Which just proves that getting the system sorted out right is just as important as having the right components. -- Matt
