scottParticipantsorry if this has been asked before. am looking for wheel cylinders both front and rear for my 62 cutlass. I am also looking for an idler arm for the same vehicle.

Jim NoelParticipanteBay has the rear brake cylinders and idler arm listed now. The brake cylinders are very reasonable. The idler arm is somewhat expensive. I have seen them cheaper from time to time, just keep watching. I have not seen new front brake cylinders offered for quite a while but this company in Duluth, MN might have them also? Rear cylinders are 7/8″ and fronts are 1″ bore.

jensenracing77ParticipantAre yours missing? If you have them you can rebuild them if there is not any bad pitting in them. Rockauto has rebuild rubber kits for next to nothing for price if yours are rebuildable. Worst case, you can send them to White Post to be rebuilt. They will sleeve them to make sure you have a true bore but they are not cheap

joe_padavanoParticipantRare Parts makes the idler assembly now? That’s great to know, Jim. Thanks. I’ve been limping along with the crappy Chinesium idler repair kits that Kanter sells. They seem to go bad after a few years.
