In that case.........your answer is a big fat no.

The master cylinders on Fords are reidiculously big, you compare it to the equivalent from another manufacturer, you will struggle to find a 22mm amongst the competiton.

I believe there are some 26mm items out there but you will have to change the servo aswell, and thats far from being a bolt on mod.

What number is on the side of your master cylinder
