Wat zed is what

[zed510]

I have a 74 260 2 seater 5 speed. I am told that it has the lighter( 240 style)body as determined by the shape of the radiator botto support. My mates is a 77 2 seater and is definitely different. Anyway my dilemma is that i have just ordered kings springs for it and they have shelf items for 240 or 260. No mention is made of 260 2 seater or 2+2. Having ordered the 260 lowering springs, should i have ordered the 240 set purely becauae of the weight of the vehicle????Any info good. Only weight specs i can find are u.s. sites and theres seem to be different.

I am not sure about the fronts on the early 260z but 260z that have the larger strut tudes 55mm not 50mm will have the spring perch lower on the fronts = long spring required. The rear struts will be the same length as the 240z units as Nissan had not changed to the taller strut towers by then = still using the same length as the 240z = 240z springs???

 

The only thing I would say is that make sure you can swap them if they are wrong.

Thans for the reply, i will measure the strut tubes to verify that. What bothers me is that after i ordered the catalogue lowering springs for the 260 i noticed that the rear number they gave me for a lowering spring for a 260 is the same part no. as the standard sprng for a 240??? I still reckon thee should be a different set of numbers for the 2+2.

I have noticed that the windscreen seems to have a lower look in my 1974 2+2 compared to my 1975 2+2, I always thought I was dreaming.

 

AM I??
