      Replacing a master cylinder is a "big" job as far as brakes are concerned. I would double check all your other work and the brakes before pulling the main part of the system out. Since you would need to bleed all the brakes and such anyhow, do a check before hand while you have the wheels off.

      I always post on here and forget about level of experience that people may or may not have. When did the car start pulling? With the list of things you fixed, are you confident in those repairs? alignment?

      Hey brother. Thanks for responding, I've done many big projects like new timing chain on my mini Cooper, clutch pad of the mini, lifting and engine outta mustang, bleeding breaks, I'm sure that we did the breaks right, we went till the fluid was clear without bubbles and then some.

      The problem is the exact same as before we swapped parts.

      What's the "big" part of the master cylinder.
