Keep firm, even drum braking with the Beck/Arnley Drum Brake Wheel Cylinder 072-1822 (also written 0721822), a complete new assembly that installs in the rear drum brakes of the 2003-2005 Kia Rio. The wheel cylinder uses hydraulic pressure from the brake fluid to push its pistons outward, forcing the brake shoes against the drum so the rear brakes apply. If a leaking, seized, or worn wheel cylinder is behind a spongy pedal, fluid dampness at the backing plate, or a rear brake that won't apply evenly, this replaces it.
Best practice is to replace wheel cylinders on both sides of the axle together and to inspect the shoes, drums, and brake fluid at the same time for balanced braking. Always bleed the brake system after installation.
Fitment: 2003-2005 Kia Rio. See the Buyer's Guide tab for the full application details.
