No brakes!!
 
Today i decided to do some brake work. I changed my pads and traced my brake fluid leak, which i found in my rear right wheel, so i took my tire off and removed my drum, i looked at it for a while then i saw a leak coming from this little black thing, i looked in my haynes manual and the little thing is called a "rear wheel cylinder" so i called around to see if anyone carried it but no one knew what i was talking about. Any of you guys know where i can get this part? Without it i won't have any brakes because of the air in the lines, thanks

:wtf: It is called the rear wheel cylinder! I’d call another parts house! If the inter boor of the cylinder is still good you can also get a rebuild kit for it!

My AutoZone is pretty good, but I still print a parts list off their web page before I even go, you just never know if your going to get a mental midget at the counter.

Stupid parts counter monkeys! :asthanos:

I am confused, your profile said you have a GSL but your car has rear drums? If it is the drum cylinder, you can usually find on on Ebay or just look on Mazdatrix web site. www.mazdatrix.com

yeah its a rear end from the junker, it was the only one they had so i didn't have much of a choice, but the car they pulled it out of was an 84gs, i'll check e-bay
p.o.s racer, they have everything in tx, if you want something here, you either gotta explain it like a 4 year old or show them a picture...morons, even at the race track they show their stupidity by saying "here's the 4 cylinder rotary engine coming up again" wtf?

Tell me if you cant find it and I will help locate the part.
