Dorman - First Stop Drum Brake Wheel Cylinder P/N:W134494
Turn pedal pressure into rear brake-shoe movement with the Dorman drum brake wheel cylinder W37423 from the First Stop line, a direct replacement for the 1979-1985 Buick Riviera, 1979-1985 Oldsmobile Toronado and 1987-1993 Chevrolet LLV. When you press the brake pedal, hydraulic pressure from the master cylinder pushes the wheel cylinder's pistons outward. The pistons spread the brake shoes against the drum.
Dorman engineered this rear wheel cylinder as a direct match for the original unit on the listed applications. It is designed to replicate the original's fit, function and performance, and each one is manufactured and tested for quality assurance.
A wheel cylinder may need replacing if you see brake fluid inside the drum or running down the backing plate, if the brake pedal feels soft or low, or if braking is uneven. Diagnose the cause before replacing parts. Bleed the brake system after installation according to the vehicle service information.

What does a drum brake wheel cylinder do?
It turns hydraulic pressure from the master cylinder into mechanical force. Its pistons push outward and press the brake shoes against the drum.
What are the cups and boots made of?
Dorman makes the cups and boots of this wheel cylinder from EPDM rubber.
What signs suggest a wheel cylinder may need replacing?

Do I need to bleed the brakes after installing it?
Yes. Opening the hydraulic system lets air in, so bleed the brakes after installation following the vehicle service information.
