hey guys,
Can anyone here tell me if the 180B engine mounts are similar if not the same to the 1600 mounts????
Thanks for any help
Cheers

Any idea what a 180B is here in the US? If it's a 710 (I think it is), yes they should be the same (or at least interchangeable).

The 180B is the 610 in the US(like the one in my avatar). I've been told it is similar, but not sure 100%, hope somebody will tell us, I do not know the 510 suspension.

Sorry, I thought the 610 was a 160.

The 610's suspension is identical to a 510 (1600), and the engine mounts are too.

510 and 610 (& 710) have a similar front suspension design and share certain components, but the motor mounts ain't one of them.

The 610/710 mount (pictured) comes as one piece with a riser that bolts to the crossmember, whilst the 510 mount bolts to a separate riser which comes welded to the crossmember.

610/710 mount:




Your homework will be to memorize thes following table:

Australia/Europe = USA = JDM
------------------------------------------
180b = 610 = Bluebird-U

140j/160j = 710 = Violet

No they are quite different.

They have big metal spacers and aren't anywhere near as compact, making them less suitable for the CA transplant.

You'd have to redesign the tower sections for the crossmember. We did that for a guy who bought 180B mounts, when we made his crossmember for is 1200 ute, but I don't have the designs for the tower section to suit the 180B mounts. It was a custom job, is difficult to make it look neat.

Sorry, that does indeed look like the 710/200SX mount. I could've swore my old '73 610 had the old style mounts, but it's been quite awhile since I saw it.
