Tru-Torque Drum Brake Wheel Cylinder
See if this part fits a specific vehicle.
Direct replacement Wheel Cylinders are designed to fit specific vehicle applications and to ensure a proper fit every time. Normal wear may cause piston seals to leak. Corrosion and pitting can also occur inside Wheel Cylinders as moisture builds up in the brake fluid. A leaky Wheel Cylinder can be dangerous to the driver, causing gradual softening of the brake pedal and creating brake pull to one side.

Comments about Tru-Torque Drum Brake Wheel Cylinder:
Very good product, easy to install and is a direct replacement for OEM wheel cylinder. My cylinders were leaking which wrecked my shoes. Replaced those at the same time, also good products. Be sure that you have plenty of brake parts cleaner as this is an extremely dirty job (if you had leaking cylinders). Otherwise, very straight-forward replacement just remember to watch how the original parts were installed (maybe take digital photos) as it will save you time when puttin it back together.
Pros
- Decreased Stopping Distance
- Easy To Install

Comments about Tru-Torque Drum Brake Wheel Cylinder:
These wheel cylinders are very handsome. The Grey metallic finish of the cylinder complements the contrasting black of the dust boots. They will definitely dress up the appearance of my drum brake assembly. They installed easily, as they matched the OEM cylinders perfectly. They stop the car, they don't leak.

Comments about Tru-Torque Drum Brake Wheel Cylinder:
I noticed one of the wheel cylinders were leaking while checking rear brakes. Ordered this part online and picked up at the store. Removed the part from its plastic bag to install and noticed that the rubber boot on the brand new part was busted. It did not look like someone returned it and/used or abused it. It was with great frustration that I needed to stop everything, clean up and head back to another store to pick up a new wheel cylindeer.
