Put hydraulic pressure back to work at the rear drums with the Dorman drum brake wheel cylinder W37787 from the First Stop line. It converts brake-line pressure into the outward force that presses the brake shoes against the drum. It fits many vehicles, among them the 2000-2005 Dodge Neon, 2003-2005 Dodge SX 2.0 and 1991-2003 Ford Escort. See the Buyer's Guide tab for the full list and engine details.

This rear drum brake wheel cylinder is a direct replacement, engineered to match the original wheel cylinder's fit, function and performance on the listed applications. It is manufactured and tested for quality assurance.

  • Ideal replacement: Engineered as a direct match for the original drum brake wheel cylinder on the listed applications.
  • Cost-effective service: Dorman presents replacing the cylinder during drum brake service as a quick, economical way to help maintain braking performance.
  • Quality materials: Built with EPDM rubber cups and boots.
  • Professionally tested: The wheel cylinder bores are surface-tested to provide an optimum sealing surface for the pressure cups.

Signs a wheel cylinder may need replacing include brake fluid seeping inside the drum or at the backing plate, fluid-soaked brake shoes, or a soft or low pedal. Other brake faults can cause similar symptoms, so diagnose the cause before replacing parts. Replacing both rear wheel cylinders together is recommended for balanced braking. Bleed the hydraulic system after installation and follow the vehicle service information for the correct procedure.

Dorman builds this wheel cylinder with EPDM rubber cups and boots. The bores are surface-tested to provide an optimum sealing surface for the pressure cups.

What are signs of a failing wheel cylinder?

Fluid leaking inside the drum or at the backing plate, fluid-soaked shoes, or a soft, low pedal may point to a failing wheel cylinder. Other brake faults cause similar symptoms, so diagnose before replacing.

Do I need to bleed the brakes after installing it?

Yes. Bleed the hydraulic system after replacing a wheel cylinder, and follow the vehicle service information for the correct procedure and torque values.
