    Hi All;
    This may be a stupid question but here goes:oops:... Wheel cylinders appear to be rather expensive for this jeep BUT is this jeep assembly the same as Ford?:?
    Someone has told us that it is but I want to be sure.
    Thanks
    Cindy

    What is this Jeep?

    What size brakes are you running 9", 10". 11" ?

    Your can rebuild wheel cylinders pretty cheap but as I remember rebuilt ones typically aren't very expensive.

    We need more information in your signature to be of much help.

    Yep, we need to know what brakes you have. Not sure any of them are the same as Ford or not. Your local parts guy can look them up.
    When I replaced all my cylinders last fall (10" brakes) they were ~$28-30 apiece..

    I first bought rebuild cyclinder kits from NAPA, but then ended up buying all new cyclinders, which I know I didn't pay that much either. I would check NAPA, even if you don't have a local store you can always order online.
