Chrysler Town Country Drum Brake Wheel Cylinder Kit in US

Your Chrysler Town Country rear drum brakes rely on the wheel cylinder to convert hydraulic pressure into the mechanical force that pushes the brake shoes against the drum. When the wheel cylinder on your Town Country leaks, seizes, or develops a soft piston seal, the rear brake circuit is compromised on that corner. A complete wheel cylinder kit from GeoBrakes restores every hydraulic component at that wheel simultaneously, delivering a brake circuit that holds pressure reliably through the next service interval on your Chrysler Town Country.

Why a Complete Kit Is the Right Choice for Your Chrysler Town Country

The most common drum brake wheel cylinder mistake is replacing the cylinder on a Chrysler Town Country while reusing worn dust boots and deteriorated cup seals. In American conditions, where road salt attacks rubber components and corrodes bore surfaces on the Town Country, a new cylinder fitted with old boots is a failure waiting to happen. A complete wheel cylinder kit ensures every hydraulic component at that wheel is renewed together, regardless of whether the Chrysler Town Country has accumulated 80,000 or 180,000 kilometres of American road use.

What Is Included in the Chrysler Town Country Wheel Cylinder Kit

Kit contents are specific to the Chrysler Town Country application and bore specification. A complete kit for your Town Country includes the wheel cylinder at the OEM bore diameter for the Chrysler Town Country, piston cup seals preventing fluid bypass past the pistons, dust boots protecting each piston end from road salt and moisture infiltration common in American winters on the Town Country, the internal spring maintaining cup seal contact under low pressure, and the bleeder screw for replacement if the original is corroded from road salt exposure on your Chrysler Town Country.

Signs the Wheel Cylinder Kit on Your Chrysler Town Country Is Due

• Brake fluid visible inside the rear drum of your Chrysler Town Country, wet shoes or fluid pooling at the drum base
• Soft or progressively lowering brake pedal on your Town Country with no other obvious hydraulic cause
• Chrysler Town Country pulling to one side during braking, asymmetric hydraulic actuation across the rear axle
• Spongy Town Country brake pedal from air entering the circuit through a failing piston seal
• Brake drag and heat at one rear wheel of your Chrysler Town Country, seized piston keeping the shoe partially engaged
• Fluid level dropping in the Town Country reservoir without any visible external leak elsewhere

Why GeoBrakes for the Chrysler Town Country Wheel Cylinder Kit

Wheel cylinder bore diameter and seal specification must match the Chrysler Town Country exactly. An incorrect bore size or wrong seal compound produces immediate hydraulic failure on your Town Country. Every kit in the GeoBrakes catalogue is confirmed for the Chrysler Town Country year, axle position, and bore specification through our vehicle selector, with both new and remanufactured cylinder options available. New cylinders are recommended for Chrysler Town Country vehicles with heavy road salt exposure or where the original bore surface was corroded.

Frequently Asked Questions - Chrysler Town Country Wheel Cylinder Kits

Can I rebuild the existing wheel cylinder on my Chrysler Town Country instead of replacing it?

A rebuild is only viable if the cylinder bore of the Chrysler Town Country is completely free of pitting and corrosion. In American conditions, where road salt routinely damages bore surfaces on the Town Country, a rebuild kit applied to a corroded cylinder will not hold pressure long-term. A complete replacement kit is the more reliable and cost-effective solution for most Chrysler Town Country applications.

Do I need to bleed the brakes on my Chrysler Town Country after installing the kit?

Yes. Installing a new wheel cylinder on the Chrysler Town Country opens the hydraulic circuit, allowing air to enter the system. After installation, the rear brake circuit must be bled at the Town Country cylinder bleeder screw to purge all air and restore a firm brake pedal. Use fresh brake fluid meeting the Chrysler Town Country specification during the bleed procedure.

Should I replace wheel cylinders on both sides of my Chrysler Town Country at the same time?

Yes. If one wheel cylinder on your Chrysler Town Country has failed or leaked, the cylinder on the opposite rear wheel has been exposed to identical conditions for the same period. Replacing both as an axle pair on the Town Country restores balanced hydraulic pressure and avoids a repeat service call within months.
