Detailed Description
Part number 355-72040 is a brake master cylinder built for specific Mitsubishi Galant, Mitsubishi Eclipse, and Plymouth Laser vehicles. Coverage includes 1989-1997 Mitsubishi Galant, 1990-1992 Mitsubishi Eclipse, and 1991-1992 Plymouth Laser applications, with fitment notes that distinguish rear disc brake setups, ABS exclusions, and production-date breakpoints.

Installation Notes and Tips
- Verify the vehicle’s production date before ordering, especially on 1990-1995 Mitsubishi Galant and Mitsubishi Eclipse applications.
- Check rear disc brake and ABS notes carefully; some listings apply only to specific brake configurations.
- Bench bleed the master cylinder before final installation to reduce trapped air in the hydraulic system.
