TR2/3/3A TR2 TR3 master cylinders

Are the master cylinder setups swappable from TR3 to TR2. The dual setup looks like a more reliable option but I wonder if the pedal layout is the same??? And then I'll have a TR2A :smile:

I'm not sure there's any real advantage to doing this, as I'm not convinced that Girling is necessarily more reliable than Lockheed. And I believe you'll find that the hard line fittings are different threads. If you were converting the entire TR2 over to Girling discs in front and a "Girling" rear axle, then go ahead.

John, unless your tr2 is past consideration I would try to stay original. Do it right, do it once, you wont be sorry. the old cylinder can be sleeved and re-built, they are hard to find and are worth the extra effort(I think)...
