Default Bofors Brakes...CMP???

Geoff,

We will try this again. :-)

I think Chris answered my question, the siezed wheel cyls should be able to be matched up with no problem, the master cyl should be able to be un-siezed and once honed out and sleeved should work again. Here are the photos of the rear brakes on the Bofors Carriage...are the brakes the same as an 8cwt?

Rear axel assy...the brakes are manually applied by way of a rope up to the rear of the LAAT to a crew member sitting in the rear...
