Somewhat OT: Cable-operated master cylinder?

Can anyone suggest what machine might have a cable-operated master cylinder? I've got a project for putting brakes on an old clutch run skid loader. My plan is to mount drum brakes with brake fluid supplied by a couple of master cylinders run by a cable and hand squeeze grip on the control levers (one for each side).

Unfortunately, the hand grips need to be vertical on the skid loader levers, which wouldn't allow a motorcyle-style hand grip and master cylinder setup to work. As far as I know, the cycle ones need to be relatively horizontal.

So, if anyone can suggest what (snowmobile, ATV, etc.) might have a master cylinder operated remotely by a cable pull, the info would be greatly appreciated.

Use an ordinary master cylinder, and attach a simple lever to it, so a PULL on the lever, by your cable, will cause a PUSH on the master cylinder. SIMPLE, and CHEAP, with no EXOTIC parts.

Thanks for the input. I knew having someone else look at the same problem would help out.
