Does any one know if the rear wheel cylinders are interchange able among the other Z cars(240, 260, 280)

I have to replace my wheel cylinders on my 71 240z but none of the local autopart have them. so my next cheap and easy bet would be to go pull them from my local wrecking yard.

but every time I go i never find a 70-72 240z everything is after those years.

thanks

70-76 wheel culinders are the same, the 77-78 use a dual piston setup whihc you cna use but you need the hardline, backing plate and all hardware, they are marginally better than the stock single piston but the dual piston slaves are easier to find
