[Healeys] BN2 front wheel cylinder size

[John Harper]

Alan

Sorry but I have to disagree. A BN2 should be 1" all round. It is the 
later BN1s with the hypoid, 5 stud rear axle and 2 1/4" wide read brakes 
that need the 7/8" diameter front wheel cylinders.

A BN2 has 2 1/4" wide drums front and back.

Regards
