Rear Wheel Cylinders

Post by Mudzuki »

Well, my driverside one let go on the weekend, good to getout and do some wheeling again. Need to fix this quick so i need to get a few part numbers and if possible some approx prices.

Parts needed

2 x Rear wheel cylinders to suit a WT (single brake line)

2 pairs of brake shoes (possible part number: BB1617)

New retractor and hold down springs


Cheers

Sierra W/T Rear brake shoes are 1617

A good brake and clutch outlet will be able to supply these but suggest that you call around and give these part numbers to compare pricing.

New adjuster and springs are genuine Suzuki only (don't buy these second hand).

Thanks Podge

Just got some prices looks like $50 ea for cylinders and $39 for shoes (not sure if price was per side or for both sides) no prices on springs and adjuster yet.

Also, the previous quote to fix it all was only marginally higher, so with a couple of cans of brake cleaner and brake fluid, i may leve it to the pros. Just going to get a few more prices.

Usually, the wheel cylinders are obtained seperately and the brake shoes come as a complete set of 4 (will do both sides). The prices don't sound to bad. Just check whether the brake shoes are rebonded or new. Most suppliers only have new shoes available these days because of the non asbestos laws on brake parts from about 2-3 years ago.

Brake fluid pissing out when you grab the pedal. Feels like you are bleeding the brakes.
