    No point in re-using the heavily corroded brake bleeder screws so replaced all four including the ones at the front.

    Also, as reported earlier, the parking brake cable pin was seized at both sides and there was no way ...

    Managed to drill out one of the bolt holding the brake line bracket at the original position.
    Looking at the surface of the other bolt, I didn't have enough confidence in driving the drill square through the remaining bolt body so decided to leave it as it is. Not a problem as at the other side of the hub carrier, I re-installed the rubber protector around the brake line ...

    It was good idea to replace the master cyl.
    There were tiny amount of slow leakage happening at the back of the cyl body making the booster cover rusty but won't be recognised until removing the master cyl.

    In the process of replacing the CL Hyd system.
    Just black fluid in the reservoir.

    Looks like someone just kept topping up the fluid when the level dropped.
    Fluid doesn’t just disappear so should have checked where it has leaked.
