Brake Master Cylinder Repair Kit for Ford New Holland 40 and TS Series Tractors

Description

When your brake pedal starts feeling spongy or you notice LHM fluid dripping from the master cylinder, you don’t need to replace the whole cylinder—just the seals inside. When internal seals fail or the cylinder bore wears, you lose this hydraulic advantage. Symptoms include a spongy pedal, clutch slippage under load, difficulty shifting, or complete loss of clutch control. This repair kit contains everything you need to rebuild your brake master cylinder and restore that firm, confident pedal feel that keeps you safe when hauling loaded wagons or working steep terrain.

What You’re Getting

• This comprehensive repair kit contains all necessary seals, gaskets, and components to rebuild your brake master cylinder, ensuring reliable stopping power and operator safety
• These seals are engineered to withstand the unique demands of agricultural hydraulic systems, including higher operating pressures, extended service intervals, and exposure to agricultural contaminants
• High-quality rubber compounds resistant to agricultural chemicals and temperature extremes that won’t deteriorate from constant pressure cycles
• The mineral oil-compatible formulation prevents seal degradation that can occur when using incorrect brake fluid types

Built for Real Farm Work

Your Ford 40 series or TS series tractors handle serious work—from pulling loaded grain carts during harvest to working steep hillsides with implements in tow. This repair kit uses premium materials specifically formulated for LHM mineral oil brake systems, not standard automotive brake fluid. The brake system is crucial for controlling differential braking during tight turns and emergency stops when loads shift unexpectedly.

Made to Last

Unlike standard automotive brake components, these seals are engineered to withstand the unique demands of agricultural hydraulic systems, including temperature swings from winter mornings to summer engine heat. The materials resist swelling and cracking from extended exposure to LHM mineral oil and farm chemicals.

Good to Know

This rebuild requires brake system disassembly and should be done by someone familiar with hydraulic systems. Remember—this system requires LHM mineral oil brake fluid only – never use DOT 3, DOT 4, or DOT 5 brake fluids as they will damage seals and compromise brake performance. If you’re rebuilding one cylinder, it’s smart to inspect your slave cylinder at the same time since they often wear together.
