Dorman - First Stop Drum Brake Wheel Cylinder Kit P/N:351556
Stop a leaking front drum-brake wheel cylinder from soaking your brake shoes and rebuild it with the Dorman - First Stop Drum Brake Wheel Cylinder Kit 3636. This repair kit supplies the internal sealing parts needed to service the front wheel cylinder on a long list of vintage GM applications, including the 1937-1938 Chevrolet Master, 1941-1942 Pontiac Torpedo, 1946-1948 Chevrolet Fleetline, and 1947-1950 GMC FC280 — see the Buyer's Guide tab for the full list.
Inside a drum brake, the wheel cylinder uses hydraulic pressure to push the shoes outward against the drum; over time its cups and boots can harden or tear. If worn seals are the cause of a fluid leak or a soft pedal, this kit replaces those internal parts so the original cylinder can be rebuilt rather than replaced. Country of origin: China.
