1992 Honda 300 2x4 Brake Cylinder

[SilentLegend]

So I took my 92 honda 300 2x4 to my local dealer to have the front brakes repairs because they didnt work at all. They told they cant fix it because they cant order the part they need which is apparently a front wheel cylinder and its discontinued by honda. Does anyone know where I can get one that will fit my year of honda or if theres anything else I can do as far as replacing the brakes or getting some sort of front brakes on my atv. Thanks in advance for any help

try ebay, Motorcycle Parts, Motorcycle Accessories by BikeBandit.com , ATV Parts and Accessories | Rocky Mountain ATV/MC

you should be able to get parts still....

Yeah thats what I thought but apparently they can only order from honda and honda dicontinued the front wheel cylinder for that model. It needs a few other parts as well to get the brakes working but they said without being able to order that wheel cylinder theres no way the brakes will work, so its kinda got me in a spot because I really would like to have working front brakes even at any amount of braking capacity.

just talked to honda here and they said honda did discountinue the wheel cylinders, but they still offer the rebuild packages... the dealer here had a left cylinder in stock with the bleeder screw... any help?

[SilentLegend]

Yeah possibly I need to find out though if those rebuild/ repair kits have all the parts because I believe there were actually some missing from in my wheel cylinders but i wont know what pieces were missing until I talk to the dealer again tomorrow. Thanks for the help, also does anyone know if there is any way to convert the front to disk brakes? Thanks again

Will that work on my atv being that is 2x4 and not 4x4? If so that would be great and probably much more reliable.

i just read it, all 4x4, not any 2x4... maybe email them and ask if there is a conversion kit for yours, or another honda that could be used for the conversion,,, maybe someone here knows more about a swap from another honda

[SilentLegend]

Ok and thanks for your help, if you do come across some conversion from another honda let me know, either way Id just like to get my front brakes working to some degree.

Parts Unlimited sales a rebuild kit for the 300 the part# is 1702-0002 you will need one for each side.You need to take it apart and look at the wheel cylinder but most of the time they can be rebuilt.We orderd some of those last summer and they were available you might want to check with another dealer to make sure just in case someone looked at the wrong number its worth a shot.They sold Thousands of those models,I can't beleive that they discontinued that part already.If you would like call this number 1-800-356-1354 and tell them colescycle told you to check with mike he knows everything Honda and what fits what.Good Day

Thanks for the info, I talked to the dealer and they got my rear brakes fixed and i was able to talk to them a little more about the wheel cylinder. He said usually they would just be able to use one of those rebuild/repair kits but that in this case one of the wheel cylinders was actually so worn it had a hole through it which made it unrepairable at least to them. Im wondering if I might could have someone weld the hold in to make it at least useable. Anyone have thoughts on that or another solution? Thanks again for all the help!

if it is the left side, there is one available in canada, Alberta, Can-Am, Honda, Honda Marine, Sea-Doo, Sea-Doo Sport Boats, Ski-Doo, Honda Power Equipment. ATV, boat,motorcycle, outboard motor, scooter, snowmobile, watercraft, lawn mower, power equipment, snowblower, generator, pump, dealer, Riverside Hon you can email them and make the appropriate arrangements ... i'm sure other honda dealers would have older stock somewhere closer to you ...
