How to remove brake cylinder?


Recommended Posts

Hi guys, I'm new to the Z's and am stuck with removing the rear passenger side brake cylinder (australian right had drive).

 

I got to the cylinder but can't seem to be able to remove it.

 

Do I have to undo that horse shoe cir-clip disc thing somehow? If so how?

I'm hoping to order the brake cylinder tmrw and have it fix up after work. It all started when I innocently started to bleed the rear brake fluid. Felt good at the time till the bleed valve threaded the cylinder thread and wouldn't tighten up.

 

I only got the car last week so haven't had a chance to get a Haynes as yet. Also have done a search as well but no mention of how to remove brake cylinder.

 

Thanks heaps in advance.

 

My new obsession
