Mercury Grand Marquis Wheel Cylinder

The Wheel Cylinder in Mercury Grand Marquis cars is a hydraulic drum brake system that serves to push brake shoes and against the brake drum for purposes of slowing the car. This component comprises a cylinder with pistons and rubber seals for the shoes, which go out when brake pressure is exerted to the drum. The wheel cylinder operation entails hydraulic pressure that pushes out the pistons, meanwhile the rubber cups position itself is set by a spring. Eventually, corrosion and wearing expose the wheel cylinder to leaks and poor braking system that may require inspection or even rebuilding of the Wheel Cylinder. Modern ones tend to be aluminum, since the cast iron ones would rust after a few years, providing the consumer with a tool that will not rust nearly as quickly.
