Brake Wheel cylinder kit

[230slhouston]

Does anyone know if there are kits available to replace the plungers and dust covers in for the rear wheel cyliners? I see the entire wheel cyclinder anywere from &70 to $100.

Thank you

These are 3/4 inch brake cups which you should be able to find at an auto parts store. I doubt you will be able to get the outer seals so you will have to re use the old ones. If they are leaking, and I suspect they are, then you might want to change them as the cylinders are likely pitted and will continue to leak.  Brake fluid on your brake shoes is a bad thing.....

Thanks for the replys. I will just buy the entire cylinder, it is only $65 a piece.

Try Bendix or Wagner(I think).  Same sizes worked on pontoons of late 50s and early 60s. If memory serves----?  Hone out cylinders to clean up.  Remember- anybody can buy a NEW one, but it takes talent to run an old one. :?:
