Product Details

- Pedal travel changes caused by a failing master cylinder
Installation Notes and Tips
Before installation, confirm the vehicle is a 1986-1987 Chevrolet Corvette with front disc brakes and verify the bore size, mounting hole layout, and reservoir configuration. Flush the brake system with fresh DOT 3 fluid, bleed the hydraulic system thoroughly, and inspect brake lines, fittings, and the booster interface for wear or contamination. Because mounting hardware is not included, reuse or source the required fasteners separately as needed.
Quality Assurance
MPA Electrical tests each brake master cylinder against OE specifications using controlled procedures and reference samples from its OE library. That manufacturing approach supports consistent hydraulic performance for the Corvette braking system. Part Number NM2188 is a new standard replacement master cylinder for direct service use.
