<div>Ray,</div><div><br></div><div>Rear brake cylinders were the same on 1600s and 2000s. 1965 to 1967 cars ised 13/16 cylinders, while 1967-1/2 to 1970 cars used 3/4 cylinders. I don't know why Nissan changed the diameter with the '67-1/2 xars, but I'm guessing it had something to do with the incorporation of dual brake systems.</div><div><br></div><div>Gary</div><div><br></div><div><br></div><div><br></div><div id="composer_signature">Sent from my mobile phone.</div><br><br>-------- Original message --------<br>From: Roy Haslett via Datsun-roadsters <datsun-roadsters@autox.team.net> <br>Date: 09/08/2015 11:44 AM (GMT-06:00) <br>To: primodonna1@juno.com, datsun-roadsters@autox.team.net <br>Subject: Re: [Roadsters] Rear Brake Swap <br><br><div style="color:#000; background-color:#fff; font-family:HelveticaNeue, Helvetica Neue, Helvetica, Arial, Lucida Grande, sans-serif;font-size:16px">Would these fit a 67 1600? 13/16 or 3/4?<br><div><span></span></div><br> <div id="yui_3_16_0_1_1441729429351_67819" style="font-family: HelveticaNeue, Helvetica Neue, Helvetica, Arial, Lucida Grande, sans-serif; font-size: 16px;"> <div id="yui_3_16_0_1_1441729429351_67818" style="font-family: HelveticaNeue, Helvetica Neue, Helvetica, Arial, Lucida Grande, sans-serif; font-size: 16px;"> <div id="yui_3_16_0_1_1441729429351_67817" dir="ltr"> <hr size="1"> <font id="yui_3_16_0_1_1441729429351_67820" face="Arial" size="2"> <b><span style="font-weight:bold;">From:</span></b> primodonna1--- via Datsun-roadsters <datsun-roadsters@autox.team.net><br> <b><span style="font-weight: bold;">To:</span></b> datsun-roadsters@autox.team.net <br> <b><span style="font-weight: bold;">Sent:</span></b> Thursday, September 3, 2015 3:36 PM<br> <b><span style="font-weight: bold;">Subject:</span></b> [Roadsters] Rear Brake Swap<br> </font> </div> <div id="yui_3_16_0_1_1441729429351_67821" class="y_msg_container"><br><div id="yiv6891151534"><div id="yui_3_16_0_1_1441729429351_67822">The best plug and play rear brake cylinders for a 68 2000 are the stock Nissan ones.
