Are the anti lock brakes just on the front?

I think you meant to say "master cylinder" as i have no idea what a slave cylinder would be.

Eight year old thread! Good to see old threads kept alive.


Regarding slave cylinders, this was found on Wikipedia: Master Cylinder

In automotive engineering, the master cylinder is a control device that converts force (commonly from a driver's foot) into hydraulic pressure. This device controls slave cylinders located at the other end of the hydraulic brake system.

As piston(s) move along the bore of the master cylinder, this movement is transferred through the hydraulic fluid, to result in a movement of the slave cylinder(s). The hydraulic pressure created by moving a piston (inside the bore of the master cylinder) toward the slave cylinder(s) compresses the fluid evenly, but by varying the comparative surface area of the master cylinder and each slave cylinder, one can vary the amount of force and displacement applied to each slave cylinder, relative to the amount of force and displacement applied to the master cylinder.

I thought it would be helpful to post some content relevant to the discussion.

I meant the rear abs was mentioned in post 4 lol

"Slave cylinder" is found on some manual transmission cars. Works with the clutch.

slave and master cylinder is just a layman's term for primary and secondary cylinder.

Right. But hardly any mechanics refer to the master cylinder as the "slave cylinder". Which in the original post they were describing lines running from ABS module to the master cylinder.

I find the terms slave and master cylinder offensive.

I think something is getting lost in translation here. Pretty much what I've been saying. But, I'm married, so I know how to make this go away....."Yeah, I guess you're right".
