What is the purpose of the proportioning valve included in this kit?

The proportioning valve allows you to adjust the brake pressure distribution between the front and rear wheels. This is crucial for optimizing braking performance and preventing wheel lock-up, especially after upgrading other brake components.

Why is a tandem master cylinder design important for safety?

A tandem master cylinder has two separate fluid reservoirs and circuits. If a leak occurs in one circuit, the other circuit can still provide some braking force, offering a critical safety advantage over single-circuit systems.

What type of brake fluid should I use with this Wilwood master cylinder?

It is recommended to use a high-quality DOT 3 or DOT 4 brake fluid, as specified by Wilwood's installation instructions. Always ensure the fluid is fresh and compatible with your entire braking system.

Product Details

The 1-inch bore size on this Wilwood master cylinder is a key spec for MOPAR applications, especially when you're upgrading your braking system. This compact tandem master cylinder kit is built to handle the demands of a custom brake setup, offering improved stopping power and reliability. It's designed to work with MOPAR vehicles, giving you a solid foundation for a more responsive brake pedal.

Wilwood is known for its well-built brake components, and this master cylinder is no exception. The tandem reservoir design means you have two separate fluid chambers, providing a critical safety feature: if one circuit develops a leak, the other can still provide some braking force. This unit also includes a proportioning valve, which is essential for fine-tuning the brake bias between your front and rear wheels. Proper bias adjustment helps prevent premature lock-up and ensures balanced braking performance, especially when you've modified your car with larger calipers or different brake pads. The chrome powdercoat finish not only looks sharp under the hood but also offers a layer of protection against corrosion and wear, keeping your master cylinder looking good for a long time.

When installing this master cylinder, remember that it's part of a system. Ensure you have the correct brake fluid type recommended by Wilwood and that all connections are properly sealed. This kit is a significant upgrade for anyone serious about their MOPAR's braking performance, offering a blend of safety, adjustability, and a clean aesthetic.
