Description

Bring firm, even drum braking back to your classic Chevy with the Dorman First Stop Drum Brake Wheel Cylinder W14497. This rear drum brake wheel cylinder converts hydraulic brake-fluid pressure into outward force that pushes the brake shoes against the drum. It's a direct-fit replacement for the 1950-1954 Chevrolet Bel Air, 1953-1955 Corvette, 1950-1952 Fleetline, 1953-1954 One-Fifty Series, 1950-1952 Styleline Deluxe, 1950-1952 Styleline Special, and 1953-1954 Two-Ten Series [All engines] — see the "Vehicles it fits" section for the full list.

Direct-fit design: engineered to drop in and perform like the original wheel cylinder on the listed vehicles.
Quality materials: cast iron body with high-quality EPDM rubber cups and boots for long-lasting performance.
Bleeder screw included: ships with a bleeder screw; a bleeder screw cap is not included.
Professionally tested: the 1 in bore is surface-tested for an optimum sealing surface for the pressure cups; 7/16-20 UNF inlet thread.

Replacing the wheel cylinder while servicing the drum brakes is a fast, cost-effective way to help maintain brake performance. Country of origin: China.
