This new aluminum unit is designed to match the design, function and performance of the original master cylinder.

  • 100% new: made entirely from new materials for quality and safety.

A soft or sinking pedal, fluid seeping at the cylinder or a falling reservoir level are signs a master cylinder may need replacing. Diagnose the cause first. If a worn master cylinder on a 1995-1997 Ford Explorer is to blame, this unit replaces it.
