If the wheel cylinder body (where it passes through the backplate) is not worn
and if the spring steel cylinder retaining plates are installed properly, then
the cylinder doesn't move easily with the brake shoes and springs installed.
It will move, actually needs to, but it shouldn't be sloppy loose. Nice
technical term.

>From the good advice I received, I've been trying to find a cause. I found
the
heel cylinder on the right rear brake seems to move very easily in the slot.
s the slot is rather large in relation to the wheel cylinder housing, I
ssume it is suppose to move but the clunk when I move it sounds like what I
et when braking. Any thoughts? Should it not move that much?
