1960-1962 Corvette Front Brake Wheel Cylinders 1 3/16" on 2040-parts.com
Clifton, Virginia, US
These are the very hard to find original 1 3/16" front wheel cylinders for the 1960 to 1962 corvette. They may also be correct for the 1963 and 1964 corvettes but I'm not sure. They have the casting numbers 5459527 and 5459528 for the front. They appear to be new and unused, may even be NOS but there is some surface rust on the outside of one of them. The interiors are clean, no corrosion and look to be new. The cylinders, pistons and seals all look new.
