1936 Plymouth Rear wheel cylinders


Recommended Posts

Posted

Does anyone have a parts manual showing the original p/n's of these wheel cylinders?  Better yet-has anyone replaced them, and what did they use?  These show as not being available at the aftermarket suppliers.  The mounting bolts center to center are 1.9" and the flange opening is 1.37".  They've both been rebuilt in the past.  Is there anything that can be used other than having mine resleeved?  Thanks.  Mike

I have used Raybestos  WC 17789 on my 35 Plymouth and other cars.  These were intended for use on Dodge  trucks.

They are not stepped but in practical terms it does not seem to make any difference.   It is necessary to slightly elongate  the bolt holes in the backing plate

Thank you Dpollo for your assistance.  I'll give that p/n a shot.   Not sure what is so peculiar about the 36 Plym rears, but no one has them.   If I remember correctly they are stepped.   Mike

I looked in my EIS catalog and here is the info that you are lokking for. Again the collecting of master catalogs pays off.

EW3595 Front left fits Cgry 1936-39, Desoto 1936-38, Dodge 1936-38 Ply except commercila car 1935-38  Dodge trk 3/4 1 ton 1941-53

EW3596 Front right same as above

the above two would have a casting number of 528

EW3597 Rear Left Desoto 1937-38, dodge 37-38, plymouth all 35 and 1937-38, Chryler c14,c15,c16, 1937 all 1938c24 and 1939

EW3598  rear right same as the above fitting

theabove would have a casting number 529

The EW#### is a standard universal number for all manufacturers of Wheel Cylinders.

these are all step down wheel cylinders 1 1/4 x 1 3/8

So hope this helps I have pictures of the cyinders and other data.

Mopar numbers are 635545 and 635546 for right and left rear cylinders, respectively, according to my parts catalogs.

Mike sent you a PM on this subject. Also if you have the original MoPar wheel cylinders and can not find any based on the info that i sent in the posting then I would have them resleeved with stainless steel inserts, It will not be cheap becasue you have the stepped wheel cylinders but it will be better that brand new and also so much better than any repro chineese junk.  I would say look for NOS Wagner or EIS brake components. i do have a Wagner and EIS brake catalog so can provide more info if needed.
