Justin, I don't understand what you have written here about the turning circle being reduced by reversing the struts. Most if not all 1600's with 200B/240K struts and brakes have the struts reversed and the turning circle is not affected. The brake callipers will be forward of the axle when the struts are reversed. Are you saying your 200B brake callipers are rearwards on the struts? I'm nearly sure that they don't fit, Sumitomos might at a pinch.
In any case, which ever way the struts are in the car it's got nothing to do with the control arms hitting the backing plates. regards Terry -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]]On Behalf Of Justin Kinchington (Global) Sent: Saturday, 6 April 2002 10:08 AM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: RE: Datsun 1600 Front Struts HELP !!

If I remember rightly . The left strut off the 200B goes on the right of the 1600 and the right Strut off the 200B goes on the left. Jack your car up remove the whole strut from each side and swap sides. You shold be right then. Later. Rick White. P.S any one have any Ideas about that 6 cylinder tacho getting re-callibrated to work on a 4 Cylinder? I recon it shouldn't be toooo hard to do Would It?? I hoope not. :O) --- message from "Justin Kinchington (Global)" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> attached: _____________________________________________________________ Get Your free Ozdat Email Account ---> http://www.ozdat.com _____________________________________________________________ Run a small business?
