No, hilux ones wont. Goto your local parts shop and ask them to get you some in. A company does make 1200 lowering blocks, about $70 a set from memory

1200 lowering block kits are very frequently advertised on eBay. Make sure you check buy it now and store categories as well as auctions [can't remember which they were under?]

So I copied & pasted the link, then scrolled down till I found one marked Datsun 1200/120Y & had a look.
Link to lowering blocks

I noticed that he claims to have "2 available"

Posts to: Australia
Item location: Melbourne, VIC, Australia
Quantity: 2 available

Then scrolled down to see what they looked like.
From memory, 1200 ones & 120Y ones are different in regards to the centerbolt head size, so one wont even bolt up to the other while the other way will have a big hole over a small centerbolt, thereby not locating the rear axle properly. Something like that.

Hopefully some experienced & knowledgable forumite can confirm or correct the above.

I know its different to a 1000 anyway. I had to modify a set of 1200 ones(off ebay just like those). All i did was make the hole bigger(16 or 18mm from memory) and use washers to space out the pin the same. My Dad just happened to have the perfect washers for the job too! The U bolts where too fat for the axle too so i had to make them thinner with a big hammer.

correct, I bought a set of those ones for 1200/120y, for my 120y. They didnt fit. I think I've still got them somewhere if someone wants them cheap.
