I need to replace the wheel cylinder on the front left of my 67 IIa NADA 109. I'm looking at the online catalog, and it shows that a specific wheel cylinder is necessary if you had a 6cyl 109...problem is, that wheel cylinder costs $200, as opposed to the exact same-looking wheel cylinder for a 2.25L 109 which costs $51. Is there really a difference between the two? I really hate to spend $200 on a wheel cylinder if I don't have to.

what is wrong with the cylinder? Frozen, leaking , scored? It might not be a bad idea to give these guys a call.
I just had my rear cylinders for the 109" done and they turned out great - and with a lifetime warranty you can't beat it. -

Neil, What did it run for the rears at White Post?
ThanksComment

Don't go by the pictures shown in the RN on-line catalog - they don't always match the actual product.
The 6cyl 109 front brakes use a wider shoe than the 4cyl, so the wheel cylinders probably have a different offset to them.
Check out this neat page that I found on-line (go to page 21 for the brakes):

A 2.6 109 has the same brakes as a Stage One. Like stated, they have a wider shoe than the standard 2.25 truck. Look around at alternative suppliers...The can be had cheaper than that. And rebuilding is always a good option too!Comment

Alright, well now I'm confused. I've looked at Rovers North website again, and I found a part number that comes up as a front wheel cylinder for a 2.6L 109 for $54. If you go to the brakes section from the main menu, that part number doesn't come up at all. Guess I will just give them a call on Monday.
The wheel cylinder is leaking, by the way.Comment

The Land Rover part numbers are 600200 and 600201 for the cylinders. The rebuild kit is 600210, which is $54 from Rovers North.
I don't know why you can't get to them from the main menu, but I found that RN sells ProLine wheel cylinders for the 2.6L 109, their part numbers PLC599 & PLC600, for about $50 each. The RNC599 & RNC600 Genuine cylinders are $199 each.Comment

I bet you found PLC599 ?
This is listed at only $48.90 each.
WHEEL CYLINDER 2.6L LHF SERIES IIA & III
PLC599 should be the related or substitute part for RNC599. I'll be able to check status on Monday am why this didn't show up online next to RNC599, just shoot me a PM or call.Comment

I really like upgrading with the brass sleeves in the cast iron wheel cylinders and went with White Post for my 6 cyl wheel cylinders. I figure it's worth it for the long term durability.

They ended up being $80 each - bead blasted, sleaved, all new innards and guaranteed for life. ( oh, and I shipped them out on a Monday and they were back on my doorstep by Friday!)
Considering it would have cost me $50 a piece for new ones it seemed logical.Comment
