Converting Singer Roadster A Series brakes to Tandem Master Cylinder

Post by ibmmohan »

For safety reasons I am thinking of fitting Tandem Master cylinder for my A Series Singer Roadster, with separate fluid lines to the front and rear wheels. I plan to use the original brake drums or should I change them as well? I would like to know whether anyone has tried this before or has information on such conversions. I would appreciate if you could highlight the problems encountered, availability of ready-made kits, etc.

Thanks.

Hi

Look for a pre war 9 hp car with hydraulic brakes. Use the complete brake assemblies and drums on your 4A

Singer Ten or Super Ten might be an option also. Axles are very similar.
