Product Details

MPA Electrical remanufactures brake master cylinders using OE sample references and testing protocols that verify performance against OE specifications. This M1516 unit is built as a reman with front drum brakes for Dodge Dart models, and it is engineered to restore braking performance after wear, internal leakage, or loss of hydraulic pressure. The cast iron construction, integral reservoir design, and DOT 3 fluid compatibility make it a practical replacement for service work on 1973-1975 Dodge Dart brake systems. This part cross-references Monroe Shocks & Struts (e.g., 172286) for the same application.

What It Helps Fix

  • Low or spongy brake pedal feel
  • Brake fluid bypass inside the master cylinder
  • Reduced hydraulic pressure to the brake system
  • Brake warning symptoms caused by master cylinder wear
  • Loss of braking consistency in front drum brake setups

Installation Notes and Tips

Fits 1973-1975 Dodge Dart, N/A, reman with front drum brakes. Verify bore size, mounting pattern, and brake system configuration before installation. Transfer or source any required external components not included with the cylinder, and bench bleed the master cylinder before connecting brake lines.
