This item is an 12 oz bottle of Dot-5 Silicone brake fluid.\u00a0 Factory fresh, made in the USA.\u00a0 <\/span><\/b><\/p>\n

Many folks believe that Dot 5 is a much better option in the vintage jeeps than the old, original, Dot 3.\u00a0 Dot 5 repels water rather than absorb it like the Dot 3 does.\u00a0 This seems to greatly reduce moisture related problems such as failed master cylinder and wheel cylinders as well as rusted brake lines.\u00a0 Dot 5 has a high boiling point of 500 degrees and is not as damaging to paint as Dot 3 is.\u00a0 <\/span><\/b><\/p>\n

It is important to know that Dot 5 and Dot 3 are not compatible and should not be mixed.\u00a0 If you are going to change from Dot 3 to Dot 5, you need to remove all of the Dot 3 fluid and internally clean your brake lines.\u00a0 You also need to change the master cylinder and wheel cylinders and rubber brake lines at this time.\u00a0 Therefore, changing over from Dot 3 to Dot 5 should be done when a full brake system update is being done.\u00a0 If you are using Dot 3, this will likely be sooner than later! <\/span><\/b><\/p>\n

NOTE:\u00a0 Silicone Dot 5 brake fluid is not the same as Dot 5.1 brake fluid and the two should not be mixed.\u00a0 Do not mix Dot 5 with Dot 3 or Dot 4.\u00a0 See instructions on the label.<\/span><\/b><\/p>\n

Shipping to domestic US 48 states only.\u00a0 No international shipping on this<\/b>.\u00a0 Not able to ship to Alaska or Hawaii.\u00a0 Sorry about that!<\/b><\/span><\/p>\n

Listing is for one 12 ounce bottle<\/span><\/b>.\u00a0 Purchase any quantity you need.<\/span>\u00a0\u00a0<\/span>If you buy more than one bottle, the price of shipping per bottle goes down.<\/span><\/b><\/p>\n
