rear wheel cylinders

[robinimpey]

Can anyone tell me the best way to take care of my rear wheel cylinders? They are leaking a little and need either need new seals or entire cylinders. Can I buy the right wheel cylinders but for a different Mitsubishi vehicle from NAPA, Parts Source or another auto parts store?

I just bought some generic $4 wheelcylinder seals (the size is on the wheel cylinder, 13/16 I think???), cut the lip off of the stock pistons that hold the stock seal on, cleaned, reassembled, added a spring in the middle. Works good.

Part number for rear wheel cylinder : LH MB500484/ RH MB500485. You can buy the kit as well like robinimpey described. They are about $65 for the complete cylinder.

Are the MB500484 and MB500485 numbers OEM Mitsubishi parts numbers or NAPA numbers?

[robinimpey]

These are Mitsubishi numbers and NAPA had no trouble getting the parts for me the next day. They were only 20 some dollars each.

Good stuff. Thanks! I was also able to find the parts from Rocky Mountain Imports. http://www.rockymountainimports.net John was very helpful and gets back to you very quickly via e-mail. $65 for the cylinders and $90 for the shoes. He's also throwing in some used headlight bulbs for me at no charge. Great service.
