Keep firm hydraulic pressure feeding your rear drum brakes with the Dorman - First Stop Drum Brake Wheel Cylinder W18010. This direct-fit replacement installs in the rear left or rear right position on the 1953-1958 Chevrolet Truck [All] and 1954-1959 GMC Truck [All]. A drum brake wheel cylinder converts hydraulic pressure from the brake line into mechanical force that pushes the brake shoes outward against the drum; if the original wheel cylinder is leaking or seized, replacing it while you service the drum brakes is a quick way to keep the system working. It's engineered to match the original wheel cylinder's fit, function and performance on the listed vehicles, and it is manufactured and tested for quality.
