oh yea just forgot you`d also want to get the other strut things that came from under the crossmember otherwise the other link thing that came standard attaches,the holes line up its just the other one has a bigger gap so the 1200 one doesnt seal it too well so the split pin on the crown nut will eventualy rust, i just think water and stuff can get in it and i think another thing is the caster looked quite hectic but i drove it around a bit and it seemed to have came right.. they come from a 1400 bakkie if anyone was wondering, the bakkie obviously made a bit better for taking a bit of weight.. better brakes were obvious

i got two 1400 struts and brakes left and right and as you can see there`r bigger and much better they`re like the size of sentra brakes.. but atleast i think they`re better gonna wear them in 2moro, i got a fright when putting the wheels back on cause they didnt turn then i realized the standard rims dont go around the calipers but i swaped back with front cause i had other rims that clear it nicely.. other wise a good swap

and then maybe this .. like attached to a traylor you might get it to spool up to 1rpm if pipes are sealed right

i got a new datsun its a 71 gx.. it needs work but im happy again.. was scary driving it home the steering is so tight and at like 40 it weaves around in the road and when i took a left turn i learnt that the right door doesnt close proparly had to use my belt to close it just to get home.. the engine sounds nice i think the exaust is a bit bigger it has a double downdraft but i think my twin carbs are going on there.. a bit of good news.. not so good news is the uragwais beat south africa 3-0 and there was much cheating.. even for spain actualy but they sucked.. time to start a war
