What steel would you recommend for a high pressure app such as brake master cylinders and what wall thickness? This would be for a 2 ton truck that is needs new cylinder, and the orginal had poor design as it was easy to go to the floor IF the slightest wear wasn't adjusted out of the shoes. My friend wants to make slightly longer cylinder for more volume than the stock one that came with it. I think he has 'swapped' out the front and rear end and the factory unit just doesn't 'haul the mail to red rock' anymore. The truck is old..about 1962 and been sitting since '72 or 3 I think. I have casually looked at it and there are a bunch of things that need changed as a result of 'modifications' he has done previously to the 'undercarriage' of this old truck.
Would 4130 rod bored out work? or what metal??
