Parking brake wheel cylinder
1999 Silverado 1500 LS Extended Cab 3dr RWD
The emergency/parking brake on the passenger side is gone. Not worn out, gone. As in there is nothing there but the cylinder, no shoes no anything. If I pull the cylinder can I rebuild it with new seals and hardware? Or should I replace it? Can not find one at any parts store online. Figure I will check the salvage yards if I have to replace it. Any idea where a very poor boy can get a parts diagram for the emergency/parking brake without having to buy a Haynes or Chilton book.

If you have 4 wheel disc brakes, there is no hydraulic cylinder for the parking brake shoes as it is purely mechanical.
I'm attaching two images - one for RPO Code JC5 and the other for RPO Code JH6.
Hope this helps.
