Re: Looking for a longshot here................
Ed I am in no ways familiar with these units but there was 1 listed on VS yesterday or the day before that came from a skidoo ?? It looked like the same thing that would be on a 340/s sled ???? I'm guessing the caliper may be different ?? May be worth a peek !

Re: Looking for a longshot here................
They do show up from time to time as they were used on many different cross country sleds, but you got to be quick...there are a lot of kh brake whores out there. Good luck!

I have been lucky to score one K&H master cylinder off ebay in the last three years. I still need a caliper for my 340/S myself. Keep your eyes pealed.
Old sleds are hours of entertainment.... then you get to ride them for a little bit.

You'll have competition, they aren't all that plentiful, and there are styles other than what was used on the Deeres.
Also, be prepared to pay what you can buy complete sleds for.

Re: Looking for a longshot here................
Ed, what component are you missing. I thought your picture showed the master cylinder, lever, cap, etc.??

I need the master cylinder assembly and the handle grip for that side, the cap was the only thing good.

Re: Looking for a longshot here................
There's a guy on ebay that sells handles, but they aren't the correct looking ones BUT if he's repoping them maybe you could get him to repop a bunch for the Deere's??
I would take 3 or 4

Re: Looking for a longshot here................
If you need the grip, you can re-make a Cyclone grip into one. Troy did one I had for the "Make a Wish" 340/S.

Re: Looking for a longshot here................
Just an update, I did find a brake assembly 
, was a little pricey but not all that bad. Thanks, now I need a handle grip cause I don't have any extra so if anyone has a spare set let me know how much. Thanks again. Ed
