This complete front disc and master cylinder kit is designed for 1962-1965 Ford Fairlane models equipped with manual brakes and includes the required spindles for a direct installation. The system upgrades the car to modern front disc braking with improved stopping performance and consistent pedal feel. Each kit includes new spindles, 11 inch rotors, loaded calipers, a manual master cylinder, hoses and all mounting hardware. The layout is engineered for straightforward installation using factory mounting points which makes it an ideal conversion for Fairlane owners looking for a dependable and efficient brake upgrade.
The master cylinder reservoir should always hold enough fluid to allow the brake pads to completely wear away without the risk of running out of fluid.

If the reservoir is too small, there is a possibility that the master cylinder can run out of fluid and the brakes will fail.
