Factory Rear Wheel Cylinder, Right, 70-72 240Z
Unfortunately, this item has been discontinued by Nissan. Be sure to check back later in case we are able to locate any remaining stock or alternatives! (Click on the red "Availability" icon above for more details.)

Description:
If you notice brake fluid leaking from the rear of your car, or a soft, spongy brake pedal, it may be time to replace your wheel cylinders. Aside from not doing its job, a leaky cylinder can allow air into the brake hydraulics, causing that soft pedal. This is the genuine, original equipment (OEM) replacement US Passenger (right) side cylinder. Be sure to inspect the brake hose while you inspect the cylinder!
Application Note:
This wheel cylinder is currently the only direct replacement for the 70-72 model, which is currently only available from Nissan (we'll be sure to offer them if a correct, good quality replacement is produced though!). We have seen some aftermarket suppliers listing the 73-76 model cylinders as fitting on 70-72 models; however, the later cylinders are not a direct replacement like these are. Please give us a call of you have any questions.

Note:
The emergency brake bracket on both left and right wheel cylinders has the letter "R" stamped on it. Nissan stopped using the "L" stamped version many years ago. Your wheel cylinders should be mirror opposites from each other when compared side by side.
