Front left-hand wheel cylinder for the hydraulic front braking system, installed within the brake backplate assembly of 11-inch front brake configurations.

This component forms part of the brake hydraulic circuit, receiving fluid pressure from the master cylinder and converting it into mechanical force to actuate the brake shoes against the drum.

Designed for use on applications with 11 inch front brakes, including long and short wheelbase configurations. Positioned on the left-hand side, it operates in conjunction with the opposing wheel cylinder and brake shoe set to provide balanced braking force within the front axle assembly.

Frequently asked questions

What is the 243743R wheel cylinder?
The 243743R is the front left-hand wheel cylinder for Series Land Rover drum brakes. It sits in the brake backplate and turns hydraulic pressure from the master cylinder into the force that pushes the brake shoes against the drum.
How many wheel cylinders do I need?
This is the left-hand front cylinder, sold individually. A Series front drum setup runs a cylinder on each side, so for balanced braking it's common to renew the opposite side too. Fit the matching right-hand cylinder for the other wheel.
Should I fit an aluminium or iron wheel cylinder?
Don't mix aluminium and iron wheel cylinders across an axle. The 243743R should match the material of the cylinder on the other side. Fitting different types together can give uneven braking, so check what's on the vehicle before ordering.
What are the signs a wheel cylinder needs replacing?
A failing wheel cylinder usually leaks brake fluid inside the drum, showing as a soft pedal, fluid on the backplate, or reduced braking. Seized cylinders stop the shoes moving freely. Replace it if you find leaks or the brakes feel uneven.
Which vehicles does the 243743R fit?
The 243743R fits Series Land Rovers with 11 inch front brakes, covering Series 1, 2, 2A and 3 in long wheelbase form from 1948-1984 and short wheelbase from 1980-1984. Confirm you have the 11 inch front brake setup before ordering.
