Dorman - First Stop Drum Brake Wheel Cylinder P/N:W610189
Help your rear drum brakes apply with steady hydraulic force using the Dorman drum brake wheel cylinder, part number W610174 from the First Stop line. It is a direct-fit replacement for the rear drum brakes of the 2012-2018 Ford Focus. See the Buyer's Guide tab for engine details.
Inside each drum, the wheel cylinder turns hydraulic pressure from the brake pedal into the force that pushes the brake shoes outward against the drum. Dorman engineered this unit as a direct match for the original wheel cylinder in fit, function and performance. It is manufactured and tested for quality assurance.
A wheel cylinder may need replacing if brake fluid is seeping inside the drum or onto the tire, the brake pedal feels soft or low, or the vehicle pulls to one side when stopping. Diagnose the cause before replacing parts, and bleed the brake system after installation.

Does the Dorman W610174 fit my 2012-2018 Ford Focus?
Yes. It is listed as a direct-fit rear drum brake wheel cylinder for the 2012-2018 Ford Focus. The Buyer's Guide tab shows the engine details.
What does a drum brake wheel cylinder do?
It converts hydraulic pressure from the brake pedal into mechanical force. That force pushes the brake shoes outward against the drum to slow the vehicle.
What are the cups and boots made of?
The W610174 uses high-quality EPDM rubber cups and boots. The cylinder bores are surface-tested for a proper sealing surface for the pressure cups.
What are signs a wheel cylinder may need replacing?
Common signs include brake fluid leaking inside the drum or onto the tire, a soft or sinking brake pedal, and pulling to one side when braking. Inspect the brakes to confirm the cause.
Do I need to bleed the brakes after installing it?
Yes. Replacing a wheel cylinder opens the hydraulic system and lets air in, so bleed the brakes according to the vehicle's service information after installation.
