Setup, Compatibility & Care
Compatibility: This kit is specifically designed for Wilwood GS series master cylinders with a 0.750 inch (3/4 inch) bore size. Always verify your existing master cylinder is a Wilwood GS series model before purchasing.
Setup/Installation:
- Disassemble the master cylinder following the manufacturer's service manual for your specific model.
- Clean all internal components of the master cylinder housing thoroughly.
- Carefully install the new piston, seals, spring, pushrod, and snap ring included in the kit. Pay close attention to seal orientation.
- Lubricate seals with appropriate brake fluid before installation.
- Reassemble the master cylinder.
- Bleed the brake system thoroughly after installation.
Care:
- Use only compatible brake fluid (DOT 3, DOT 4, or DOT 5.1 as recommended by Wilwood) when refilling and bleeding.
- Inspect brake system regularly for leaks or performance degradation.
- If issues persist after rebuild, the master cylinder housing itself may be damaged beyond repair.
