240z Wheel Cylinder Part #'s

[lm71z]

I just received new 240z rear wheel cylinders from Nissan. One of the part numbers is 44100-N3001(supposed to be the right one) and the other part number is 44101-N3001(supposed to be the left one). The Nissan fast system told me that these are supposed to be for the right and the left wheels, but the ones I received are both for the right wheel. What is the correct part number for the left wheel cylinder?

44100-N3001 is the Right Hand rear wheel cylinder for cars starting 10/72

44101-N3001 is the Left Hand rear wheel cylinder for cars starting 10/72

The earlier Part Numbers were:

44100-E8700 RH

44101-E8700 LH

And before that

44100-E4100 RH

44101-E4100 LH

If they are both the same, and you're sure that they are both the same - it looks like someone put a wrong wheel cylinder in the box -- - It seems I've heard of that before...

FWIW,

I tried his original part numbers from above and got:

44100N3001="R WHEEL CYLINDE" $58.50

44101N3001="R WHEEL CYLINDE" $65.38

Both are actually listed as the right side, although the prices differ.

Where are they listed as "right side"?

"R WHEEL CYLINDER" - might mean Rear Wheel Cylinder. Normally they are listed as RH or LH for Right or Left Hand sides.

You're right. I thought for some reason we were talking about the fronts, but R probably does mean "rear".
