Motorcraft Drum Brake Wheel Cylinder

The Motorcraft Drum Brake Wheel Cylinder is a hydraulic brake component for drum brake systems. It is built as a replacement for the original equipment wheel cylinder. When you press the brake pedal, the wheel cylinder turns hydraulic pressure from the master cylinder into mechanical force. This pushes the brake shoes against the drum to slow and stop the vehicle. Motorcraft is Ford Motor Company's parts brand, and this product line is meant to match factory performance, so it can also be called a rear brake wheel cylinder or drum brake cylinder.

Key Features:

• Designed as an OE-quality replacement for Ford, Lincoln and Mercury drum brake systems
• Converts hydraulic pressure into the force that applies the brake shoes
• Precision-machined bore for smooth piston travel and consistent brake response
• Sealed with rubber cups and boots to help hold fluid in and keep dirt and moisture out
• Built for durability and long service life under repeated braking

A worn or leaking wheel cylinder can cause a soft pedal, uneven braking, or contaminated brake shoes. Replacing it restores reliable braking. Replacing the brake shoes, hardware and brake fluid at the same time is good practice. Choose the specific part number for your application from the options listed on this page.
