Application
Fits front wheel cylinders with 1" bore for various post-war jeep models with 9" drum brakes. Note: rear wheels typically use cylinders with 3/4" bore — this is a front wheel kit.
Installation notes
Before installation, check that the cylinder bore is smooth and undamaged — if pitting or scoring is present, the complete cylinder must be replaced. Clean all components thoroughly with brake cleaner. Lightly lubricate the new cups and pistons with fresh brake fluid (SAE 70-R3 / DOT 3) before assembly. Bleed the brake system completely after installation.
Compatibility
Exclusively for front wheel cylinders with 1" bore. Rear wheels use smaller cylinders (3/4"). Not interchangeable. Check your cylinder bore before ordering — use callipers or compare with the original piston.
Historical context
The hydraulic brake system of post-war Willys jeeps used larger cylinders at the front (1") than at the rear (3/4") for balanced brake force distribution. This configuration was standard on military and civilian models with 9" drum brakes.
