Keep hydraulic pressure moving to your rear drum brakes with the Dorman - First Stop Drum Brake Wheel Cylinder W36106, cataloged for the rear right position. It's a direct-fit replacement for the 1975 International 200, 1962-1965 Ford Fairlane, 1971-1973 Ford Maverick, 1966 and 1971-1973 Mercury Comet, 1966 and 1971 Mercury Cyclone, and 1962-1963 Mercury Meteor — see the "Vehicles it fits" section for the full application list.
Inside a drum brake, the wheel cylinder converts brake-line hydraulic pressure into mechanical force: its internal pistons push outward to press the brake shoes against the drum. When the original cylinder leaks or seizes, this unit is designed to restore that hydraulic actuation.
- Rear right fitment: serves the rear right wheel station on the listed applications.
- Hydraulic actuator: pistons move outward under fluid pressure to apply the brake shoes.
- Direct-fit replacement: a direct-fit for the listed applications.
Signs the original may need replacing include brake fluid seeping at the cylinder or backing plate, a soft or fading pedal, and reduced braking at that wheel. If a failed wheel cylinder is the cause, this replaces it — diagnose the system first, as these symptoms can have other causes.

Frequently Asked Questions
What does a drum brake wheel cylinder do?
It converts brake-line hydraulic pressure into mechanical force. Its internal pistons push outward to press the brake shoes against the drum when you apply the brakes.
Which wheel position is this cylinder for?
It is cataloged for the rear right position on the listed applications.
Which vehicles does W36106 fit?
It's a direct-fit for the 1975 International 200, 1962-1965 Ford Fairlane, 1971-1973 Ford Maverick, 1966/1971-1973 Mercury Comet, 1966/1971 Mercury Cyclone, and 1962-1963 Mercury Meteor. See the "Vehicles it fits" section.
How do I know if my wheel cylinder is failing?
Common signs are brake fluid seeping at the cylinder or backing plate, a soft or fading pedal, and reduced braking at that wheel. Diagnose the system first, since these can have other causes.
What interchange numbers does this replace?
It cross-references 18E45, 84-34033, W906199, 101-1412, W-81033, 33705, 134.61033, WC252560, 375-54035, C20Z2261C, C30Z2261C, D3DZ2261A, 5463090, 5469495, 78315, 455650C91, WC36106, F78315 and WC78315.
