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 pushes pistons inside the cylinder outward. These pistons then force the brake shoes against the inside of the brake drum, creating friction to slow or stop the vehicle.

Do I need to replace both rear wheel cylinders at the same time?

It's generally recommended to replace brake components on both sides of the vehicle simultaneously. This ensures even braking performance and prevents one side from having more stopping power than the other.

What other parts are needed for a rear brake job on my Jensen Healey?

For a complete rear brake job, you'll typically need brake shoes, brake drums, and potentially brake springs and hardware kits. It's always a good idea to inspect these components when you have the drums off.

Product Details

This is the rear brake wheel cylinder for your 1972-1976 Jensen Healey. It's a key part of your car's braking system, working with the brake shoes to push outward against the drum when you press the brake pedal. Keeping this part in good working order is essential for safe and effective braking.

DFC makes this wheel cylinder to fit right into your Jensen Healey's existing brake drum setup. It's built to handle the hydraulic pressure from your brake lines and ensure your rear brakes engage properly. When you're rebuilding your rear brakes or replacing worn-out components, a new wheel cylinder like this one helps restore that firm pedal feel and consistent stopping performance you need.
