DatsunHealey Posted March 16, 2013 Report Share Posted March 16, 2013 Can anyone let me know where I can get a clutch fork boot for a 71L 5speed transmission. I have seen a boot on ebay but the ad indicates it will fit only the following: "Correct Nissan replacement for all 1972-78 240, 260, and 280Z's, 1979-83 non-turbo 280ZX's (does not fit 280ZX Turbo's), all 1975-79 620 pickups, and all 1980-85 720 pickups." My 71L is of course not in a Datsun but came connected to an L20B which I believe came from a 1975 or 1976 610 or 710. Any chance the ebay boot will fit? I don't assume that an ebay seller will know ALL of the applications for a particular part. I do assume someone on Ratsun WILL know... Thanks! Quote Link to comment
datzenmike Posted March 16, 2013 Report Share Posted March 16, 2013 The FS5W71B didn't come in the 610- or 710 so it was transplanted. If it's a '71B' 4 or 5 speed, it will work. Quote Link to comment
DatsunHealey Posted March 16, 2013 Author Report Share Posted March 16, 2013 Thanks Datzenmike It is marked 71L on the passenger side. I referred to this thread: http://community.ratsun.net/topic/48964-can-anyone-help-me-id-an-l20b-block5-speed-trans/ and it appears to be a FS5W71B 5 speed, non dogleg, 5 bolts on the coverplate and marked 71L. Can I assume it is a FS5W71B? It would not suprise me if it was not the original transmission since the spacer plate does not properly fit. Quote Link to comment
