Detailed Product Description

The Dorman W37708 drum brake wheel cylinder is a critical component in the brake hydraulics system, responsible for applying pressure to the brake shoes within the drum brake assembly. Manufactured from cast iron, this wheel cylinder offers reliable resistance to wear and corrosion. The 0.875 inch bore diameter is designed to match OEM specifications, ensuring proper hydraulic pressure and brake response. The brake line inlet thread diameter of 10 mm with an M10 x 1.0 thread size and 1.0 thread pitch allows for secure and leak-free brake line connections. This part does not include a bleeder screw or bleeder screw cap, so those components must be sourced separately if needed.

Installation Notes and Tips

When installing the Dorman W37708 wheel cylinder, ensure the brake system is fully depressurized and the vehicle is securely supported.
