What does a brake wheel cylinder do?

The brake wheel cylinder is a key part of your drum brake system. When you apply the brakes, hydraulic fluid 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 your vehicle.

Does this wheel cylinder come with brake shoes or hardware?

This product is for the brake wheel cylinder only. It does not include brake shoes, springs, or other associated hardware. You will need to purchase those separately if your project requires them.
