Dorman - First Stop Drum Brake Wheel Cylinder P/N:W37157
Put fresh hydraulic force behind your drum brake shoes with the Dorman drum brake wheel cylinder W36042 from the First Stop line, cataloged for the front right position. It fits many classic vehicles, among them the 1965-1970 Oldsmobile Delta 88, 1965-1969 Oldsmobile 98 and 1965-1968 Cadillac Calais. See the Buyer's Guide tab for the full list and engine details.
This direct replacement wheel cylinder was engineered to match the original cylinder's fit, function and performance on the listed applications, and it is manufactured and tested for quality assurance. When the brake pedal is pressed, the cylinder turns hydraulic pressure into force that pushes the brake shoes outward against the drum.
A wheel cylinder may need replacing if you see brake fluid seeping at the drum or backing plate, or fluid-soaked shoes. Other signs include a soft or sinking pedal, or the vehicle pulling to one side when braking. Diagnose the cause before replacing. Consider servicing the opposite side at the same time for balanced braking.
