I have stanza ones, they are 5-6cm too long


I'll whip out the rats tail file then, #### I wish I didn't break my die grinder


Thanks for the help guys, though still it miight be an idea to sort out the details so the Wiki can be accurate

yea the B310 ones fit coz we had to get some for the p-nut which has stanza front struts etc. im pretty sure theyre the same part no as the stanza.

1200 castor rods need to be modified to fit the stanza control arm. the bolt spacing is wider on the stanza control arm/ball joint. if you slot the rear-most hole of the 1200 castor rod you'll be ok. the front hole can adequately locate the control arm/strut.

the other option is to use the stanza castor rod, and shorten it - alot! but its easier & cheaper to modify the 1200 castor rod - you can do that with a small round bastard file and a vice.

I have my '74 120Y apart,and those cator rods are the same as 1200, and will not fit the stanza control arm/ball joint without modification. I haven't seen the late 120Y stuff that people talk about on here to comment on that.

your not tring to bolt it together in the car are you?

might have had to elongate a hole or something, but nothing that i can notice now its bolted in
dont really want to pull them out in a hurry to check though as they are an arse to get back in

neither of mine lined up with the holes in the stanza ball joint/LCA

Might try pushing harder tomorrow then...

yeah stanza/sunny lower arms

ive been doing alot of checking lately as im supposed to be making some adjustable castor rods up
they are definatley the same as stock 1200 rods
i'll have to pull them off some time and see if i did anything to them
they were actually out of a 120y, with early struts, and i swapped them with another 120y which was an even earlier model

have to use the smaller bolts that go with the castor rod though

but the length and bolt hole spacing is the same as 5 other 1200 castor rods i have

Didn't you need to change the lower control arms Pigdog?

The only way I can see your "stock" castor rods fitting is if you actually had later model 120Y castor rods, LCAs & struts in it when you bought it - cause neither my stock front drum or disc castor rods fit the stanza LCAs

Very confused here.

im using stock 1200 castor rods in mine, just have to make the groove in the side of it bigger, groove is to clear the stock bolts and the stanza ones are bigger so groove needs to be bigger to match

dont think i did anything in regards to the bolt hols
