Saw these on Trademe. Thought of you. Front suspension gas inserts for 1200/120y/B310 up to 1982.

Would the B210/B310 inserts work well in a 1200? The front end weighs a lot more in the newer vehicles.

Also, I really dislike the gas inserts. The 1200 front rides pretty smooth ... until you put gas inserts in , then it becomes choppy. Might be good for racing though. For the street, my advice is to rebuild the original struts (new valve kit, and new oil).

My advice is Tokico "Silver" all round. They were fantastic replacements. We can't get them in Australia anymore. They were much better than the factory ones in my opinion.

Slightly firmer. Well suited to the vehicle weight. It was like putting a sway bar on, and upgrading tires.

If my memory is correct TOKICO was an original supplier for Datsun.
