Common Applications and Problem Solving

Installation Notes and Tips

Installation requires removal of the old master cylinder and proper alignment with the two mounting holes. Since mounting hardware, push rod, brake booster, and reservoir are not included, ensure these components are compatible and in good condition before installation. Use the included gasket or seal to prevent leaks. Bleeding the brake system after installation is necessary to remove air and restore full braking function. Verify thread sizes (M10-1.00) and flare types (inverted) for brake line connections to ensure proper fit.
