About two months ago my daughter blew a wheel cylinder and I went shopping.
 The cylinder kit was something like $8.95, and the complete cylinder was
$5.99.  I couldn't believe it and had the clerk double check the price, he
was correct!  Also saved me a few hours trying to find where I last put my
cylinder hone.   :-((


     Good luck...  M.
