Restore firm, even rear drum braking on your classic Cadillac with the Dorman - First Stop Drum Brake Wheel Cylinder W37226. This drum brake wheel cylinder uses hydraulic brake-fluid pressure to push its pistons outward, pressing the brake shoes against the drum. It drops in as a direct-fit replacement for the 1968-1970 Cadillac Calais [All], 1968-1970 Cadillac DeVille [All], and 1968-1970 Cadillac Fleetwood [All], with these applications using 2 per vehicle.
- Cast-iron body: machined to a 0.813 in bore, with the wheel cylinder bore surface-tested for an optimum sealing surface for the pressure cups.
- EPDM rubber cups and boots: high-quality sealing components for long-lasting performance.
- Bleeder screw included (bleeder screw cap not included); 3/8-24 UNF inlet thread.
- Ideal replacement: engineered to drop in like the original drum brake wheel cylinder on the listed vehicles; manufactured and tested for quality assurance.
Signs this part may need replacing include brake fluid seeping at the wheel cylinder, a soft or sinking pedal, or sticking rear brakes. If a leaking or seized wheel cylinder is the cause, this replaces it. Sold individually; these applications use two, so order 2 for a complete rear axle.
