Bring firm, dependable rear drum braking back to your classic Z-car with the Dorman - First Stop Drum Brake Wheel Cylinder W96879, built as a direct-fit replacement for the rear right position on the 1970-1973 Nissan 240Z, 1974-1975 Nissan 260Z, and 1975-1976 Nissan 280Z [All]. When hydraulic pressure reaches the cylinder, it pushes the brake shoes outward against the drum; a leaking or seized wheel cylinder is a common cause of a soft pedal, fluid on the backing plate, or uneven drum braking, and this unit replaces it. Dorman engineered it to match the fit, function, and performance of the original wheel cylinder on the listed vehicles, and it is manufactured and tested for quality assurance.
