Mk 1 Brake Master Cylinder Switches - Why are there 2?

This being the case, shouldn't the nut be replaced each time as the ability to deform to lock is lost?

Yes, They're single use. A wheel bearing kit comes with a new one.

Thanks

I bought a bar and a 30mm socket, tightened it all up and it seems to be ok for now. I'll keep checking that it is tight every few days.

Thanks for the part numbers, I'll order them and fit next weekend.

I wrote the wheel bearing procedure up a while ago, you might find it handy.
