It looks like 1949 3100 trucks rear wheel cylinders are the same on both sides (1 3/16" diameter). http://chevy.oldcarmanualproject.com/parts/1929_54/296.htm | | | | | Joined: Jan 2015 Posts: 125 Shop Shark | | Shop Shark Joined: Jan 2015 Posts: 125 | Think I would be better off to try and rebuild mine? I know the quality would be better

That is odd. | | | | | Joined: Jan 2015 Posts: 125 Shop Shark | | Shop Shark Joined: Jan 2015 Posts: 125 | I've got my rear drums off and found all the parts to the culprit of the one leaky wheel cylinder. .. think I'm gonna rebuild this one and see if works.

Get a cylinder hone to smooth out any rusty spots and the kits are cheap. Mine work just fine. But my hone is done. I guess 20 years is all it was good for. Gotta find a new hone.
