Product Details

This DFC brake master cylinder is what you get when you need to replace the original unit on your 1978-1980 Dodge Challenger. It's designed to be a direct fit, meaning it bolts up where the old one came off without needing any modifications. A properly functioning master cylinder is crucial because it's the heart of your car's hydraulic braking system; it converts the force from your brake pedal into hydraulic pressure that pushes the brake pads against the rotors or shoes against the drums.

DFC builds this master cylinder to meet the original specifications for your Challenger, ensuring it operates as intended. This is important for consistent braking performance and pedal feel. When you're rebuilding the brake system or troubleshooting a spongy pedal, a new master cylinder like this one is often a key component to get your stopping power back to where it should be.

This part also fits the 1978-1979 Dodge Colt, 1979-1980 Plymouth Arrow, and 1978-1979 Plymouth Sapporo. Make sure to check the manufacturer's instructions for any specific installation details or bleeding procedures required for your vehicle.
