[Tigers] Brake Pedal

[Jay]

There are so many oddities here.  First, at one end, the plunger should  have a disc at the end, with a circlip that holds it in.  That rubber boot would likely hold in the disc, even if the circlip broke.  So since it “came out” of the rubber, it sounds like the center of the disc is some how flawed.  But FWIW, I can’t imagine how that would happen unless something was quite odd in the assembly.
