It depends.  They are sourcing more and more parts off shore.  Front right and 
left are UP 14493 and 14494, respectively, rear are 14497.  Lucky you, they 
pretty much stock everything for your brakes and seem to be reasonably priced 
(list).  I need to switch my hucks over to bendix one of these days…

    Thanks Nate,
 I disassembled one today and it had some pitting in the cylinder so i think 
i'm just gonna take my kits back to NAPA and get new cylinders there. Most of 
there parts are pretty good, don't you think?

There's only one hydraulic cylinder per wheel , each one has it's own bleeder 
valve .

Id they're broken off , I'd scrap the cylinder , brandy new top quaLITYbENDIX 
OR wAGNER ONES ARE AVAILABLE FROM rOCKaUTO (damn caps lock) , NAPA and other 
fine FLAPS , some partshaus' sell crappy off brand cylinders you don't want as 
they're dangerous .

Once in a blue moon you can use an " Easy - Out " to remove the broken off 
bleeder screw but that's rare ~ most of the time the Easy-Out snaps off too .

If the cylinders are not leaking , you can hold them in place and use some 
.002" shim stock *gently* worked in past the rubber cups , bleed *very* gently 
else you'll blow the cups out of the cylinders while you have the drums off .
