Use a steering arm from a 210 (B310). Read the article very carefully, as it gives you more than one option in track width.

That needs to be corrected. Where did you see it?

In the 280ZX Strut Swap article, I find no mention of B210 steering arms, but it says to use a B310 steering arm.

In Knuckle Arm it lists:
B210: 40052-H7400 (1976-up A engine, except USA)
The "except USA" is important.

Well the B210 USA unit might work too. But we don't know. It will fit the 280ZX struts, and the B310 ball joint (probably) but whether it fits the 1200 tie-rod ends is undocumented.

The normal swap is 210 LCA with balljoints & 210 steering arm.

The strut holes should be fine. It's the size of the ball joint hole and tie-rod holes I don't know about.

Nice progress.

What did you end up using a for suspension? Did put the 1200 struts/brakes back on?

By the way, 4.11 gears for H165 only came as option in USA for the Datsun 410. So unlikely to find them used. Get 4.11s from Nismo or from overseas.
