Product Condition Grades
Below is a general description of what the criteria is for our product condition grades. These are generalizations that are intended to give you an idea of the condition of the product at a quick glance. Because different parts degrade at different rates, there are variances in what the letters represent, please see the products description for details about the condition of any particular product.
A = Excellent / Above Average
B = Average / Some flaws / Good to Excellent Driver Quality
C = Obvious flaws / Poor to Average Driver Quality
D, E, F = Worse, Worser, Worsest
This option includes paying a core charge.
By choosing this option, the rebuilt booster you receive will have started the rebuild process as an average quality core.
We highly recommend that you send us your core first. Here's why:
We can core match your booster. Boosters that are rebuilt using a superior quality core are always reserved for core matching. If your core is average or below average, you may be able to pay to upgrade to a rebuilt booster that started the rebuild process as a superior quality core.
You can find out the quality of your core before paying a core charge and avoid unnecessary core charges. Discounted core charges may apply for below average cores if sent in advance.
Rebuilt power brake booster for the 1971-73 Mercury Cougar and Ford Mustang. All Cougars and Mustangs used the same 9501 Bendix power booster, but the internals of the booster changed in July of 1972. 1972 cars manufactured after 7/72 used the 1973 booster. Because of the improved internals, all of our 1971-73 rebuilt boosters come with the 1973 internals for reliability.
WARNING: Never bleed your brakes on a power brake car with the car running. The pedal will over extend the rod into the booster and break internal parts. This is not covered under warranty.
