I'm in the process of rebuilding all the brakes on my 86 Tecate and after 3 weeks of waiting, I found out from my local dealer that the K&L rear master cylinder kit is no longer available. Is there another machine that uses the same parts, that may still be available? Or another source?

Thanks.

According to kawasaki.com The 86-87 Rear Master cylinder was only used on the 86 and 87 Tecate. The same goes for the piston.

I bought a 92 KX125 rear master cylinder and it is a bolt on for the 84-85 Tecate. I know that doesn't necessarily help, but it may be the direction you want to head in. I thought I had seen the 86-87 rebuild kits on Ebay before.

Thanks Ben. All years the same?

edit: I just looked up the lt250r p/n's and it shows different for front and rear on the LT. I would assume the rear would be the one I need.

edit #2: after reading through the T3 Parts interchange thread, i found the post I was looking for


lt250r master cylinder rebuild kits fit the front and rear master cylinders on the 86 tecate. just get the front for front and rear for rear. http://www.3wheelerworld.com/showthread.php/94809-Kxt250-Tecate-3-What-Parts-Fit-Swap-Interchange?p=808856#post808856

86T3, that looks to be for a front brake. Thanks though.

I should have been more clear,sorry. If you cross the p/n for the lt kits you will see the same rebuild kit was used for quite a few suzukis
