Reply to "Non-Reduction Clutch Master Cylinder Swap"

I know this is an old post but I just went through this same exercise yesterday. Same deteriorated boot, same spring on rod, etc.

The only purpose I can see for the spring is to return the pedal. The car I was working on did not have the coiled spring at the top of the pedal like later cars have.

To install the longer rod we had to do a slight amount of grinding on the retaining washer and the spring seat to get them to fit into the new master. The spring is captured on the rod and the only way to remove it is to mangle it off.

Installed without boot but I do not see any issue with that.
