Pistons are the same. The wide part or lip is always on the fluid side and just not shown well in the earlier drawings. That lip is what activates the compensator valve. Hopefully your mechanic has rebuilt one of these units before but if not, just follow the instructions carefully. One important thing is make sure the compensator valve stem in the proper orientation to the lip. The piston needs to be pushed forward like the photo shows when the valve is installed. That way the stem is behind the lip.

The rubber parts not included are all inside the power piston and control the action. All you will be changing is the leather piston seal and packing.

The not included conical spring is what actually supports the compensator valve and returns it to the closed position when brakes are applied.
