When it comes to maintaining the braking system, the wheel cylinder plays a vital role in ensuring smooth and safe stops. This component is located in the rear drum brakes and works by pushing the brake shoes against the drum to create friction. Its function is to convert hydraulic pressure from the brake fluid into mechanical force. Without a properly working wheel cylinder, the vehicle’s braking performance can be compromised.
The rear wheel cylinder with the code USEP-5140708AA is designed specifically for Chrysler PT Cruiser models equipped with rear drum brakes. This part is made of metal and rubber, using existing hardware for installation. It fits both the left and right sides of the rear brakes and is compatible with vehicles that have 228mm rear drum brakes without ABS. Two of these cylinders are required for a complete replacement on the rear axle.
