When I did the brakes on my Jeep my only concern was making sure that every thing was clean. All parts used were stock. I have never heard of any incompatible parts when using silicone fluid.My switch is from NAPA.

Heck, you could even use a pipe thread adapter in a pinch, if there's enough room. Go to one of our local auto parts store with the old switch in hand and see what they've got that'll work with silicone brake fluid. It's nice to be able to read what's on the box before buying. Too bad Knecht's closed! Of the remaining stores I've found that the counter people at NAPA seem to know what they're doing: ;referer=v2 Is the silicone brake fluid compatible with the other ancient technology in you brakes?

Which I use. Apparently, there is > or are compatible switches out there, anyone else worked through this?The slower the speed, the more interesting the shape; that's a truism in boat design. Low speed requires a degree of symmetry that must be discarded the moment hull speed is approached or exceeded and that's always seemed to me an aesthetic loss that is difficult to recover...
