Hey Chuck, thanks for reaching out!

The Replacement Cylinder # AKBRKR-H7-L certainly looks like what you have in your photo so it could work, but I just wanted to verify if your cylinder is busted or not because that rubber end is a bit offset in your photo, but ours is straight on with the body of the cylinder.

If you can let me know what brand brake kit you have and what size it is (10" or 12") I can see if this is an exact replacement or not.

The brake cylinder is broken. It has 12" brakes.

@ChuckF In that case, yes this will work. Thanks for the confirmation! You'll need the part above for the left-hand side, and the part # AKBRKR-H7-R for the right-hand side.
