Default Master cylinder rebuilding/sleeving

Who's the best for this service. I have a 309 that won't clean up. Thank you, Joe

Whitepost did mine last year, had to return it for a slight leak. They fixed the leak and so far everything is good. They had my Master for 4 weeks due to Covid.

I used Karp’s and a Raybestos rebuild kit (and had Steve Gregori plate the cover). Turned out mint.

Somebody else sent me an e-mail about Karp. Thank you, Joe

Sorry Joe, I gave you the wrong info! I actually had Apple Hydraulics sleeve the master. For some reason I had Karp's on the brain, but I had narrowed it down to Karp's and Apple, and chose Apple because they sleeved in brass rather than in stainless. Both vendors had excellent feedback so I don't think you could go wrong with either.

I just sent some original rear wheel cylinders that would not clean up to Karp's last week for sleeves and bought the rebuild kits to re-assemble myself.

Thanks Tony. Is one sleeve better than the other?...Joe
