Why Choose Our Brake part for HOWO MAX 4X2?

Complete Brake System Integration

This brake part kit includes every bracket, fastener, protective cover, and reservoir component required for a full brake system installation. The fluid reservoir, control unit cover, and all hardware are matched to the HOWO MAX 4X2 chassis, ensuring perfect alignment and leak free operation of the hydraulic brakes.

Vibration Proof Fastening Hardware

The kit includes serrated flange bolts and toothed flange nuts that lock into the mounting surface, preventing loosening from chassis vibration. The large washers protect plastic components from damage while maintaining clamp load. These brake part fasteners keep the reservoir and control unit securely attached.

Durable Fluid Reservoir Construction

The fluid reservoir is molded from UV resistant HDPE with integrated heating element mounts. The material withstands the chemical properties of DOT 4 and DOT 5.1 brake fluids and temperature fluctuations from -40°C to +85°C, ensuring reliable fluid storage in all climates.

Precision Fitment

All brackets and fasteners in this brake part kit are designed for the HOWO MAX 4X2 chassis. The DCU protective cover snaps directly onto the bracket, and the M14 bolts align with factory threaded holes, eliminating the need for drilling or modification during installation.

How This Brake Part Works with the Braking System

The fluid reservoir stores the hydraulic brake fluid that transmits force from the brake pedal to the wheel cylinders and calipers. When the driver presses the brake pedal, the master cylinder pushes fluid through the brake lines, applying pressure to the brakes. The reservoir must maintain an adequate fluid level to compensate for pad wear and temperature changes.

This brake part reservoir includes a level sensor that alerts the driver when the fluid is low, preventing air from entering the system. The DCU protective cover shields the electronic controller that manages anti lock braking and electronic stability functions. Together, these brake part components ensure the braking system operates reliably and safely.

Material Quality and Manufacturing Standards

The fluid reservoir is manufactured using rotational molding of linear low density polyethylene, producing a seamless, stress free container that will not leak at weld lines. The material meets DOT brake fluid compatibility requirements.

The mounting brackets are fabricated from hot rolled steel with e coat finish, providing 500 hours of salt spray resistance. All fasteners are zinc plated or zinc flake coated, with the M14 bolts receiving additional thread locking compound to prevent loosening. Every brake part component is tested for dimensional accuracy and material hardness before leaving the factory.

Installation Procedure for the Brake Part Kit

Before starting, ensure the vehicle is parked on a level surface and the engine is cool. Disconnect the battery ground cable. Remove the old brake fluid reservoir and mounting components. Clean the frame mounting area thoroughly. Position the new reservoir onto the chassis bracket. Install the hex bolt with serrated flange M14*1.5 through the bracket holes, using the hex flange nut with teeth M14*1.5 on the opposite side. Torque the M14 bolts to 45 Nm in a crossing pattern.

Install the remaining bracket bolts for the brake control unit. Attach the DCU protective cover using the hex head bolt M10 and hex flange nuts M10, torquing to 20 Nm. Secure brake hoses and wiring harnesses with the plastic fastening belts. Reconnect the battery and fill the reservoir with fresh DOT 4 brake fluid.

This brake part kit is designed specifically for the HOWO MAX 4X2 tractor with hydraulic brakes and electronic brake control systems. It fits both standard day cab and sleeper cab variants. The kit is compatible with Bosch and WABCO brake controllers used on recent production vehicles. For older HOWO models, verify the brake controller type and bracket spacing before ordering. The DCU protective cover is designed for the standard electronic brake control unit used on most MAX series trucks.

Maintaining the Brake Part Components

Inspect the brake part reservoir and mounting every 50,000 kilometers. Check the reservoir for any cracks or leaks, particularly around the filler neck and level sensor mounting. Look for fluid residue, which indicates a loose seal or damaged neck.

Inspect the mounting bolts for tightness; retorque M14 bolts to 45 Nm if needed. Check the DCU protective cover for cracks or loose fit. Examine the plastic fastening belts for signs of weathering and replace if brittle. If any component of the brake part kit shows damage, replace it immediately with a genuine HOWO part to prevent brake system failure.

Troubleshooting Common Brake Part Issues

If the brake warning light illuminates, first check the fluid level in the reservoir. If the level is low, inspect for leaks in the brake lines or at the master cylinder. Crystalline deposits around the reservoir cap indicate brake fluid contamination,

requiring a complete flush. If the DCU protective cover is missing or damaged, water can enter the controller, causing intermittent ABS faults. Loose mounting bolts can allow the reservoir to move, leading to stress cracks at the fitting connections. Always use genuine HOWO replacement brake part components for any repairs to maintain system integrity.

Why Genuine HOWO Brake Parts Outperform Aftermarket Alternatives

Aftermarket brake fluid reservoirs often use lower grade plastic that becomes brittle after a few years of UV exposure, leading to cracking and fluid leaks. The mounting brackets may be fabricated from thinner steel that flexes under vibration, causing stress on the fittings. Generic fasteners may not have the correct corrosion protection, leading to seized bolts that are difficult to remove.

The DCU protective cover may not seal properly, allowing water and dust into the controller. The genuine HOWO brake part kit uses certified materials that meet the exact specifications of the original equipment, ensuring the same durability and performance as the factory installed components. The small additional cost of genuine parts is far outweighed by the risk of brake failure from substandard components.
