What does a brake wheel cylinder do?

The brake wheel cylinder is part of your drum brake system. When you apply the brakes, hydraulic pressure forces the pistons inside the cylinder to extend, pushing the brake shoes outward against the brake drum to slow your vehicle.

Do I need to replace both rear wheel cylinders?

It's generally recommended to replace brake wheel cylinders in pairs. If one side is worn out, the other is likely close to failing, and replacing them together ensures balanced braking performance.

Does this wheel cylinder come with any hardware?

This product includes the brake wheel cylinder itself. Any necessary seals or boots are typically integrated into the cylinder or should be replaced as part of a complete brake service.
