The unit comes with a master cylinder cap but does not include mounting hardware, push rod, brake booster, or bleeder hoses. It has two mounting holes to ensure a secure fit and two ports with M14-1.50 inverted flare threads for primary and secondary outlets, facilitating proper brake line connections.

Common Applications and Problem Solving

• Replacement for worn or leaking brake master cylinders in Ford Explorer
• Restores proper brake fluid pressure and pedal feel
• Addresses brake fluid reservoir damage or leaks
• Solves issues related to inconsistent braking response
• Prevents brake system failure due to master cylinder wear

Installation Notes and Tips

Installation requires removal of the old master cylinder and proper connection of brake lines to the M14-1.50 inverted flare ports. Since mounting hardware and push rod are not included, reuse existing components or source separately. Ensure the reservoir is securely attached and the master cylinder cap is in place. Bleeding the brake system after installation is necessary to remove air and restore full braking function. Verify compatibility with your specific Ford Explorer model year before installation.
