1200 strut tops will get me 1 1/2" of drop?

Or do I use more than the tops? I have a pair of 1200 struts. I do want to maintain some rigidity.

Giddy Up

Im pretty sure the strut is the same length (they use the same inserts) and just the strut top lowers the car, as for 1 1/2 inches im pretty sure it would be about and inch at the most.

Yee hah!

Sorry it is 1 1/2 inches; cable-tie image -

The 1 1/2 inches is what I found on here by Brocky41 on his 120y

Clicky

Yeah sorry you were correct!

Where is the bearing in each of those? Exactly the same place? Or lower in the B110 hat and higher in the B210 hat? That will make a difference.


Disc-brake B210s use at least two different strut sizes. Are the inserts really the same physical size?
- Australia B210s have small diameter struts (45 mm, same an B110)
- USA B210s use the larger diameters struts (50.8 mm large Datsun size)
Strut Inserts.
But apparently the hats interchange.

I have new in the box inserts for both sets of struts B210 and the B110 also

Ebay cheap

I collect shtuff for no apparent reason

Heavy on the "sh"

Can you measure both and post here? Most outside diameter of the inserts, but length, stroke and shaft diameter will be useful as well. Thanks in advance.

Sure no problem. I will also provide part #'s if legible

thats awesome

Im pretty sure it was the later model B210 (74+ or 76+??) that went up to the larger diameter strut tube, balljoints got the larger bolt size and pattern as well as getting the matching lower control arms and steering arms.
