swapping out to a dual system brake master cylinder would be a good thing to consider if planning some work anyway. the original brake master cylinder is a single system, meaning the front and rear brakes are a single circuit so if there is a failure of a component anywhere, like a leak or an old brake hose blows off, you will lose ALL the brakes at the same time. the dual system seperates the front and the rears so if there is a failure in one section you will obviously know you have a problem but you will still have some stopping power from the other circuit to get you slowed down and stopped eventually.
