Direct replacement wheel cylinders are designed to fit specific vehicle applications and to ensure a proper fit every time. Normal wear may cause piston seals to leak. Corrosion and pitting can also occur inside wheel cylinders as moisture builds up in the brake fluid. A leaky wheel cylinder can be dangerous to the driver, causing gradual softening of the brake pedal and creating brake pull to one side.
- All wheel cylinders are made with high quality EPDM rubber cups and boots for long lasting performance
- Wheel cylinder bores are surface tested to ensure an optimum sealing surface for the pressure cups
- Due to repair time and cost, it is more desirable to replace instead of repair wheel cylinders
- Recommended replacement is suggested when servicing drum brake
