Champion grader parts

excavator ยท 2016-06-02 16:29

I'm looking for a brake master cylinder kit for a Champion D600 grader. Any ideas where I can find parts for these? I believe Volvo bought them out, just wondering if there are other sources available. I thought maybe I could just buy cups at the parts store but it looks pretty specialized.

    Try strongco in Mississauga Ontario. They are the largest Volvo dealer in North America and have quite a pile of champion parts. Sorry I don't have the phone number. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk

    Be careful though, they will charge pretty outrageous shipping charges to the US. I'd do some google searching on the part #'s on the side of the master cylinder, I'll bet you can find a complete master cylinder. I was able to find one in the US for our D562 last year for a very reasonable price.

    For just a master cylinder I'd bet a good commercial brake shop may be able to match it. For parts in general or hard to find parts Jade might be a good option.

    If you do price a new one, I'd be interested in knowing the price. We put a new one on a 730 about 8 years ago, and it was about $800.00 from strongo. The old one was pitted really bad inside and couldn't be rebuilt. Seems to me that there was also a $250 core charge on that as the old was scrap.

    I've done a little checking, it's a Wagner Lockheed FD2704 which is a very popular number used in many trucks ect. However, the internals are totally different using a compound piston. With a little more time spent on Google I found that Allis Chalmers used the same system on their 840 wheel loaders so Monday I will check to see if it is the same bore size and hopefully will be able to go that way. Thanks for the help so far.

    Seems I priced one from Jade last summer and it was around $300 for a series one 720. If you source it from Volvo I'd be sitting down and prepare for some intimate discomfort.

    So I checked it out and the AC 840 has the same power booster and master cylinder so I was able to get one from MinnPar. Thanks for the help.
