A friend of mine has recently had a bit of a prang (which was well publicised on here). Many hours have been spent in his garage getting it back to a roadworthy condition, however we are having a bit of an issue getting the new rear brake master cylinder to sit right. When we hook it up to the brake pedal and bolt it on, the rod seems to be angled too far forward to allow it to travel all the way up into the cylinder. He seems convinced that the bracket which connects the cylinder to the frame is not bent, I'm not so sure.

Anyone got any ideas?
