Rear brake cylinder part number??
Saturday, September 16, 2006 11:30 AM
Anyone have the part number for the rear brake cylinder (the part that pushes out the brake shoes)?

I need it for 03+. If it helps, on mine it's blue.

Thanks

95-99 Domestics are the smaller size.
00-05 Domestics and all Exports are the larger size drums.

It was never replaced--I am the one and only owner on this car and this piece has been there from day one.


Every auto parts store I call only has a listing up to 02. From what I have read on here, 03 started using a larger drum, so I am guessing that anything older than that will not work.

Someone please correct me if I am wrong, coz if a cylinder for an 02 will work, I can have it tomorrow.

It's my own fault that i need a new one. I had both drums off to lubricate the backing plate where the pad touches since it was squeaking when I let off the pedal. Being the genius that I am, I put the drum back on the passenger side and forgot I had the driver's side still off. I got in to test the brakes to see if my lube job worked and the driver side cylinder blew out one of the pistons and shot brake fluid out. So, I am pretty sure that is how my seal inside the cylinder got damaged.

Well contacted my parts finder for you no listings in the books for the companys that local parts stores would have but it is delco # 172-1640 so that can help you find one at the dealer. were going threw some more books for you, and if I hear anything else i'll let you know but all we found is that delco #.

Hey man, I appreciate that a ton. I called all the local places that sell Raybestos stuff, but none of them could get it. I did manage to find it on partsamerica.com for like $37, but I would have had to wait for it and pay for shipping anyway.

so anyway, as it turned out, by the time I saw your post, I already had the dealer part in hand, all $86 worth of it.

thanks for everyone's help on this. I got it installed today and just got done bleeding the brakes. All I have left to do is put the wheels back on, bed in the brakes, and drive.
