Frequently asked questions

What is the RTC3169D wheel cylinder used for?
The RTC3169D is the rear left-hand wheel cylinder for Defender (1987-2006) models with rear drum brakes. Made by Delphi, it pushes the brake shoes against the drum when you press the pedal, providing rear braking force on that side.
Does this fit Defenders with rear disc brakes?
No, this wheel cylinder fits only Defenders (1987-2006) with rear drum brakes. Defenders with rear disc brakes don't use a wheel cylinder. Confirm your Defender has rear drums before ordering.
Is this for the left or right side?
This is the left-hand (LH) rear wheel cylinder. Wheel cylinders are side-specific, so order the correct side for your Defender. If you're refreshing both rear brakes, you'll also need the matching right-hand cylinder.
What are the signs a rear wheel cylinder needs replacing?
A failing rear wheel cylinder typically leaks brake fluid inside the drum, causes a spongy pedal or leaves the shoes contaminated. On the Defender a seized or leaking cylinder reduces rear braking. Replace it and bleed the brakes if you see fluid at the backplate.
