Detailed Product Description

The Dorman M99084 brake master cylinder is a direct replacement part designed to meet the specifications of original equipment for Ford and Mercury vehicles including the Capri, Cougar, Fairmont, Mustang, Thunderbird, and Zephyr. Its 0.875-inch bore diameter provides the correct hydraulic pressure needed for effective brake system operation.
