patd Posted March 21, 2010 Report Share Posted March 21, 2010 Hi guys, does anyone know if these tension rod bushings are the same size as on my 521? I can not find any for my truck. :unsure: :unsure: http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/Datsun-510-610-710-810-Front-Tension-Rod-Bushings-NEW_W0QQcmdZViewItemQQhashZitem563aa31b7dQQitemZ370350955389QQptZMotorsQ5fCarQ5fTruckQ5fPartsQ5fAccessories Quote Link to comment
datzenmike Posted March 21, 2010 Report Share Posted March 21, 2010 That also fits the B-210/240/260/280 as well. Couldn't find the part number for the 521, so can't compare it to them. The 620 bushing may be the same but the number is different. Quote Link to comment

yello620 Posted March 22, 2010 Report Share Posted March 22, 2010 Those wont fit the TC rods of a 521. They are too large. Quote Link to comment

yello620 Posted March 23, 2010 Report Share Posted March 23, 2010 Universal shock bushings from the energy suspension catalog fit reasonably well. Part #9.8106R Quote Link to comment

I went down to autozone and wouldn't you know it they had that kit for $14.95 so I bought it and just got done putting them on. The left hand side tension rods big jam nut was loose so I think that might have been some of the problem of the loose steering. The old bushings were pretty dry rotted. I took her for a quick spin and the steering feels a lot tighter than before. :thumbup: :thumbup: :thumbup: Quote Link to comment
