What does a brake wheel cylinder do?

The brake wheel cylinder is part of your drum brake system. When you press the brake pedal, hydraulic pressure from the master cylinder forces the pistons inside the wheel cylinder outward. These pistons then push the brake shoes against the inside of the brake drum, slowing your vehicle.

Does this wheel cylinder come with brake shoes or hardware?

This product is for the left front brake wheel cylinder only. It does not include brake shoes, springs, clips, or other hardware needed for a complete brake job.

Is this a direct replacement for my Maverick's original wheel cylinder?

Yes, this DFC brake wheel cylinder is designed as a direct fit replacement for the original part on your 1971-1973 Ford Maverick. It should install without requiring modifications.
