M211/135 Wheel cylinder Rebuild

[redthegreendog]

Has any one found parts to rebuild the wheel cylinders for the M211 and 135.

Or has any one found an OTC replacement for the wheel cylinders.

I got this from some one else and I have not tried it yet. Hope it is what you are looking for.


"Cups in wheel cylinders: NAPA United 14451. I honed them out and rebuilt them."

yes that dose work and the cups are $2.00 each but if my cylinder is no good it will cost $50.00 for a new one from Memphis equipment. they also have new rubber kits for $12.00 or so.

I may have a lead on a parts souce for these trucks that will be more accomodating to us collectors. I'm talking TENS OF THOUSANDS of wheel cylinders and other M211/M135 series truck parts, all NOS. I will make a new post on it when I find out more info.

Have you heard anything yet? I'd be interested. Thanks, Tom

It was a no go. The place I was in contact with said they didn't know why their site showed such a large inventory of G749 wheel cylinders and other G749 parts. In fact, they pointed me in the direction of who did buy up all of the G749 NOS parts. Which were places like Memphis, Niagara and Boyce.

White Owl equipment has wheel cylinders though, at $48 a piece. I just contacted them about some. Not sure about condition but at $48 a piece they'd better be like new or NOS. Luckily the truck I bought has already had 8 wheel cylinders rebuilt, master cylinder rebuilt and the bearings pulled and repacked. Saves me lots of work!

If your cylinder is pitted, they can be sleeved! Antique car guys do it all the time.

When I get down to the shop, I'll ask Bill where he got the last 12 from. It may take a few days.

depending how bad they are, they can just be honed out too...
