I received the rubber bits to rebuild my brake master cylinder, and was surprised to find that the three oval edge seals are not all the same size. Two of them are 4.15 mm thick and 19.5 mm OD, the last one is 4.35 mm thick and 20.1 mm OD. I no longer have the original seals, and did not notice if they were all the same or not when I disassembled the master. I took pictures of the internals of the master before I tore it down, and from the photos it looks like the seal towards the bottom of the cylinder (closest to the rear of the car) is a bit fatter than the other two. Is this correct, or should I chalk the difference up to manufacturing tolerances (that would be pretty sloppy tolerances)?
