Product Details

Cardone 10-2885 is part of the Brake Master Cylinder line, focused on remanufactured OE replacement hydraulics that restore consistent pedal response and braking pressure. The remanufacturing process includes re-engineered internal components, height-gauged piston assemblies, and vacuum-tested reservoirs where applicable, along with bores finished to critical micro-finish standards to help reduce pitting and corrosion. This part cross-references Monroe Shocks & Struts (e.g., 172286, 182286) for the same application.

Compatible With 1999-2004 Ford F-250 Super Duty and 1999-2004 Ford F-350 Super Duty, this master cylinder is a direct-fit option for trucks without cruise control. Search terms such as Ford F-250 Super Duty brake master cylinder replacement, Ford F-350 Super Duty master cylinder 10-2885, and remanufactured brake master cylinder for 1999-2004 Ford Super Duty trucks all point to this application.

Common Issues This Part Can Address

• Low or spongy brake pedal caused by master cylinder internal bypass
• Brake fluid leakage from the master cylinder body or rear seal area
• Inconsistent hydraulic pressure during braking
• Pedal travel that changes after repeated stops
• Brake system performance loss related to worn internal seals or cups

Installation Notes and Tips

Use the brake fluid specified by the original equipment manufacturer and always start with fresh fluid from a sealed container. Bench bleed the master cylinder before installation, and follow the correct bleeding procedure for the vehicle and brake system. Verify that the booster push rod seal is in good condition and inspect the brake hoses, calipers, and wheel cylinders if pedal issues remain after replacement.

Quality Assurance

Each Cardone remanufactured master cylinder is computer tested to confirm fit and function before release. New O.E.-quality seals and cups are used during remanufacturing, and cast-iron versions receive a protective coating to help resist rust and extend service life. The process is also designed to reduce raw material and energy use compared with manufacturing a new part.
