[Tigers] Brake Pedal

[Jay]

Using the same picture here is the disk I was talking about.  If the rubber is not completely trashed, I do not think the plunger would have pulled past the rubber.  That suggests the hole in the disk or the knob at the end of the plunger were some how compromised, not the circlip.  Now granted, I think it is more likely that the circlip was put in poorly.  But in that situation, the plunger would still pull the disk, which would have pulled the rubber boot off the MC.
