DESCRIPTION

If your brakes go soft mid-race or your pedal feels spongy and unresponsive, your OEM master cylinder is likely the culprit. While the stock unit may perform well when new, it deteriorates quickly under aggressive use—leading to unsafe and unpredictable braking.

The SHIFT Performance Labs Master Cylinder Upgrade features a genuine Wilwood Master Cylinder paired with the correct hardware and adapters for a seamless fit on all 2017+ Can-Am X3 models. This isn't just an upgrade—it’s a race-proven solution.

Tested and trusted by top drivers across short course, desert, rock, and dune racing, this setup delivers noticeable braking improvements.

FEATURES:

• Significantly firmer, more responsive brake pedal
• Moves more brake fluid for better performance with shorter pedal travel and faster stops
• Compatible with all 2017–2025 Can-Am X3 models
• Race-tested across all terrains
• Includes all necessary hardware and adapters

INSTALLATION NOTES:

• Requires drilling the factory master cylinder bracket (refer to photos) 
• Must be mounted horizontally—correct orientation is critical for optimal function

DISCLAIMERS:

• This master cylinder does not work with a Trail Tank on your X3 (14.3-gallon). The adapters and brake line don’t clear as the trail tank comes much closer to that area than the stock tank does.
• This is a race ONLY item
