Turn every press of the pedal into steady hydraulic pressure at the brakes with this Dorman brake master cylinder, part number M390351 from the Dorman - First Stop line. It is a direct-fit replacement for the 1996 Toyota RAV4 (see the Buyer's Guide tab for engine details). It is precision-engineered to match the design, function and performance of the original master cylinder, and it is made from new, high-quality materials for a safe, durable replacement.

  • Precise replacement: the cylinder housing is built to match the casting material of the original part for similar performance.
  • Durable design: every rubber component uses a high-quality EPDM compound that resists glycol-based brake fluid.
  • 100% new: made entirely from new materials for quality and safety.
  • Strict specifications: made to meet rigorous SAE International standards.

The master cylinder is the hydraulic heart of the brake system. When you press the pedal, its pistons push brake fluid through the lines to the wheel brakes. Signs a 1996 Toyota RAV4 master cylinder may need replacing include a soft or slowly sinking pedal, brake fluid seeping from the cylinder, or a lit brake warning light. If a worn master cylinder is the cause, this Dorman master cylinder replaces it. Diagnose the brake system first, then bench-bleed the new unit and bleed the brakes as the service procedure directs.

Frequently Asked Questions

What does a brake master cylinder do?

It converts force from the brake pedal into hydraulic pressure. That pressure pushes brake fluid through the brake lines to the wheel brakes so the vehicle can slow and stop.

Is this the right 1996 Toyota RAV4 brake master cylinder?

M390351 is listed as a direct-fit replacement for the 1996 Toyota RAV4. The Buyer's Guide tab shows the engine details for this application.

What are the rubber components made of?

All rubber components are made of a high-quality EPDM compound, which resists glycol-based brake fluid.

What are signs the master cylinder may need replacing?

Common signs include a soft or sinking brake pedal, brake fluid seeping from the cylinder, or a brake warning light. These symptoms can have other causes, so diagnose the brake system first.

How is it installed?

Follow the vehicle service procedure, which typically includes bench-bleeding the new master cylinder before installation and bleeding the brake system afterward. Brake work is safety-critical; consider professional installation.
