What does a brake master cylinder do?

The master cylinder converts the force from your brake pedal into hydraulic pressure. This pressure is then sent through the brake lines to activate the brakes at each wheel.

Do I need to bleed the brakes after installing a new master cylinder?

Yes, it is essential to bleed the brake system after installing a new master cylinder. This process removes any air that may have entered the lines, ensuring proper hydraulic function and consistent braking.

Does this master cylinder come with any hardware?

This part includes the brake master cylinder itself. You will need to reuse your existing brake lines and potentially any mounting hardware, or source them separately if needed.
