Detailed Description
This Centric brake master cylinder is engineered for hydraulic brake service where correct bore sizing, outlet thread pattern, and reservoir layout matter. It is a direct-fit replacement for 1986-1988 Ford Taurus and 1986-1988 Mercury Sable applications listed below, including 1986-1988 Ford Taurus, N/A; 1986-1987 Mercury Sable, N/A; and 1988 Mercury Sable, N/A to 6/19/88. The 130.61040 part number is also referenced in cross applications such as Dorman - First Stop M39543 and Raybestos Brakes MC39543.

What It Helps Fix
- Brake pedal that sinks due to internal master cylinder leakage
- Loss of hydraulic pressure in the brake system
- External fluid seepage at the master cylinder body or ports
- Incorrect outlet thread or flare mismatch during brake repair
- Reservoir damage or deterioration on the original unit
Installation Notes
Verify bore size, outlet thread size, flare type, and reservoir layout before installation. This unit does not include mounting hardware, brake booster, push rod, or bleeder hoses. Bench bleeding is recommended before final installation, and the brake system should be inspected for fluid condition, line integrity, and proper pedal feel after service.
