Question:

I need a replacement master cylinder P/N: 5672, but for drum brakes. The one you show is for disc brakes? Are these the same?

Helpful Expert Reply:

Hydraulic drum brakes operate at around 1,000 psi where disc brakes are higher at about 1,500 psi. So the maser cylinder for disc brakes, part # 5672, is not the same as what you need.

Instead you need the master cylinder for drum brakes, part # 5650.
