Installation Notes and Tips
Verify vehicle fitment by year, make, model, and front disc brake configuration before installation. Bench bleeding the master cylinder before final installation helps reduce trapped air in the hydraulic system. Use clean DOT 3 or DOT 4 brake fluid only, and inspect the brake lines, booster interface, and reservoir connections for wear or contamination during service. Mounting hardware, brake booster, push rod, sensor, and brake pressure switch are not included.
