So I can obtain KYB 362001, front strut cartridges (45mm diameter not the
50mm for B210)from OP?

I'm sorry, but who is OP?

Thanks

Bprojects don't have the KYB 362001 strut cartridge we need.

Good Morning, at least from where we are in Southern California.

Sorry it has taken me so long in getting back to message concerning our dire need for front strut cartridges for our '72 Datsun 1200. We have owned this green pickle fro35 yrs.

KYB-England/Europe was contacted and they don't have these either (KYB362001).

Bprojects in Japan don't either.

We need the 45mm diameter cartridge not the 50mm that is in the B210 which are available through Rock Auto.

So you can get the 45mm, KYB 362001?

Let me know when you can.

Thanks for your help in this matter.

Been unsuccessful in locating the front strut cartridges.

Following your leads:

1. Bprojects don't have them
2. Bilstein couldn't help.
3. Classic Auto Spare didn't have any or any comparable.
4. You mentioned a Jetta might have a similar size. Do know the year?

Haven't attempted to reach UK.

Don't want to go with coilovers.

Thanks

Sorry for taking so long in responding to your previous inquiry about how our 1200 had a A12A engine I replaced with the current A14.

I purchased it a number of years ago from a engine parts shop thinking it would just fit on and into the motor mounts and etc. Was I surprised.

Need front struts for my '72 Datsun, 1200. Would these work? Any fabrication?

Thank you very much.

Will give it a try.

David, I'm the person who accepted your recommendation and purchased that A-14 a few months ago over "Craig's List". Thanks again. About my strut issue. Sure the easiest strut replacement is to put originasl back in but your recommendation of contacting Nissan Parts Deal asking for part number, 56105-H5025 came up short. Like everyone else I've attempted to contact, they're not available.
Once again what about a Volkswagen model. Heard there is one out there that uses the same size strut. Have you heard?

What front struts are easiest to install. Live in Southern California. Have owned a green '72, 1200 for 34 years. Just installed a rebuilt A-14 with Weber 36-32. A bit difficult to start, however.

Anyway, seems no one makes, any longer, the struts specially for this model. What would you recommend? The last ones we purchased on 11/11, a Koni brand wet kit, are now leaking after only approx. 20,000 miles.

Heard a Volkswagen model has struts that could fit.

Does anyone know which Volkswagen model it is?

Any modifications to such if anyone knows?

Thanks for your input.

We purchased that nice A14 in Bakersfield you mentioned was available. It has a 4 spd but we are going to keep the AT for now. Thanks.

Question: Do we need a larger radiator for the 14 instead of the one for the A12A we removed?
