Hi Guys,

Can I use my H165 upper and lower U-Bolt holder with my R31 diff?

If not, then where can I get it from?

Kind regards,
Ron

Those parts are too small for the Borg Warner 78

* No need for the top part, just let the bolts wrap around the axle tube. Maybe you can use an R31 bump stop

* Use the BW bottom plate as it will be the correct size for the U-bolts. You may weld a shock mount stud to the plate in the same location as the stud on the Datsun plate

BW only came as 4 link not leaf in R31
You'll have to take a look at Commodore or Falcon leaf setups to see if you can adapt those parts

Thanks #dattoman_1000,
Will look into that.

I used Holden hq leaf saddles in my coupe

HQ was the first coil spring rear end in a Holden. HK/T/G and prior were leaf spring rear ends.

Correct sorry they are hg shock plates, I have a spare set here $75 plus post

I needed to do this as well. Was going to modify my 1200 coupe plates. But cheers for the idea. just picked up a set off ebay!
