Buick john Posted August 14, 2016 Report Posted August 14, 2016 Any help out there got a mopar axle no markings but need a wheel cylinder & the number in the the cylinder is LA1011 if any one can help Quote
Plymouthy Adams Posted August 14, 2016 Report Posted August 14, 2016 is this mopar axle in a mopar car?....second do you think for a minute it is the stock axle....if so...post year and model car that the axle is in.... IF you think this is a retrofit....a better description will be needed or at least a picture of the axle carrier front and rear and a quick snap of the cylinder in question.. Quote
Buick john Posted August 14, 2016 Author Report Posted August 14, 2016 I have this Pontiac it's got a mopar axle in it I will get some photos up of it Quote
Plymouthy Adams Posted August 14, 2016 Report Posted August 14, 2016 (edited) that would be good...first we have to identify if 8 3/4 early/late or 7 1/4: 8 1/4: 9 1/4 or I doubt but is out there 9 3/4 a picture of the rear cover if it is of the bolt on type will allow identification....a measurement of the drum diameter will also speed you along....next you will need to know the bore of the cylinder and from that you should be able to identify and replace said unit with a rebuilt across the counter... added note...if 8 3/4 will be banjo style with hog head bolting in driveshaft side of the housing...then look at the axle and tell me if it is held on by a big nut and cotter pin or if the drums just slide onto a flat hub with usually two shallow holes drilled into it or possibily a slot Edited August 14, 2016 by Plymouthy Adams 1 Quote
Buick john Posted August 14, 2016 Author Report Posted August 14, 2016 Axle 8,3/4. Number on cylinder LA1011 but will get some pics thanks Quote
Plymouthy Adams Posted August 14, 2016 Report Posted August 14, 2016 a pic may help......tell me early or late for application...you can use an on line wheel cylinder photo array.....sometimes you get lucky and see your cylinder and the pic may have the application data with the photo... https://images.search.yahoo.com/search/images;_ylt=A0LEVxY_3LBXBqgAPSlXNyoA;_ylu=X3oDMTB0N2Noc21lBGNvbG8DYmYxBHBvcwMxBHZ0aWQDBHNlYwNwaXZz?p=chrysler+8+3%2F4+brake+cylinders+identicication&fr=yfp-t&fr2=piv-web#id=48&iurl=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.carid.com%2Fic%2Fright-stuff-detailing%2Fproducts%2Fwc11_3.jpg&action=close 1 Quote
Don Coatney Posted August 14, 2016 Report Posted August 14, 2016 The wheel cylinder may be reparable with new rubber and honing if it is not too deeply pitted. Less expensive to ship a rubber kit across the pond than a replacement cylinder. Quote
Buick john Posted August 14, 2016 Author Report Posted August 14, 2016 Maybe possible if I can identify cylinder Quote
Jerry Roberts Posted August 20, 2016 Report Posted August 20, 2016 ... but need a wheel cylinder .. If you need a wheel cylinder because your existing wheel cylinder is badly pitted , another option could be to have your cylinder sleeved . Quote
BigDaddyO Posted August 21, 2016 Report Posted August 21, 2016 As long as you can break the bleeder free. That has become my standard for repair or replace before I even open it up. Quote
