KiloTango1200 Posted May 15, 2015 Author Report Share Posted May 15, 2015 A like new Dogleg shift knob for the transmission I got waiting in the wings. A set of 280ZX front struts and brakes in good working condition. 1 Quote Link to comment
KiloTango1200 Posted May 15, 2015 Author Report Share Posted May 15, 2015 Got the spring off the strut. This operation makes me nervous, but it was accomplished with minimal difficulty. Quote Link to comment
datsunfreak Posted May 15, 2015 Report Share Posted May 15, 2015 Got the spring off the strut. This operation makes me nervous, but it was accomplished with minimal difficulty. I just put it on the floor, put my feet on the upper hat, rotor end pointed away from me, and fire the nut off with an impact. :rofl: A like new Dogleg shift knob It actually is "new". ^_^ NOS knob I got from a Japanese dealer. It was installed in my car for maybe 8-12 months, but it's not like I ever drove it. :rofl: 2 Quote Link to comment

It was installed in my car for maybe 8-12 months, but it's not like I ever drove it. :rofl: No air, no electricity at my shop. Had to do it with manual spring compressors and hand tools. I like to go home with all of my digits at the end of the day. My day job is eliminating the company's liability, so it kinda bleeds over. A career in Aviation makes you paranoid. The steering wheel and shift knob couldn't have worked out better. 1 Quote Link to comment

I like to go home with all of my digits at the end of the day. My way isn't "dangerous" as much as it is "exciting"... ^_^ A career in Aviation makes you paranoid.

datsunfreak Posted May 15, 2015 Report Share Posted May 15, 2015 I'll video the next procedure! At a 90 degree angle! No, you'll have to stand behind me. 90 degrees is in the "blast radius". B) 1 Quote Link to comment
KiloTango1200 Posted May 16, 2015 Author Report Share Posted May 16, 2015 This section is for me to remember how the 280ZX front suspension goes back together. Caliper off. Brake pad support, holder, enclosure, bracket?? Not sure what to call it. Hub/Brake Disc assembly. The brake baking plate screws won't come off with penetrating oil and heat. 2 Quote Link to comment
KiloTango1200 Posted May 16, 2015 Author Report Share Posted May 16, 2015 Impact screwdriver to the rescue. This tool has saved the day on several occasions during this build. The supporting cast includes a MAP GAS Torch, MEK, & Nuts Off penetrating oil. And a BIG HAMMER! 1 Quote Link to comment

KiloTango1200 Posted May 16, 2015 Author Report Share Posted May 16, 2015 For the dust shield screws? ^_^ At first I thought they were welded in there. Several times during this build, what should have been an easy job turned into a major pain in the ass. 1 Quote Link to comment

KiloTango1200 Posted May 17, 2015 Author Report Share Posted May 17, 2015 280ZX strut top hat assembly. Quote Link to comment
KiloTango1200 Posted May 17, 2015 Author Report Share Posted May 17, 2015 Datsun 1200.com says the 280ZX struts and brake assembly fits SOME 13 in wheels. If they don't fit mine I will have wasted a whole lot of time and effort. It looks like the brake caliper will clear, But the wheel won't turn. It wont turn with the wheel off either. Now to take it apart to find out what the problem is. Quote Link to comment
datsunfreak Posted May 17, 2015 Report Share Posted May 17, 2015 If those wheels aren't too wide (as in 5.5", not 7"), and the tires also not too wide (like a 185/60-13), you could always use a 5mm spacer. This usually gets you better caliper/hub clearance. But the wheel won't turn. It wont turn with the wheel off either. Now to take it apart to find out what the problem is. Probably just the rotor stuck to the pads. Take the pads out and then see how they do. Those struts came off a running/driving car 4-5 months ago, so they should be fine. :thumbup: 2 Quote Link to comment
datsunfreak Posted May 17, 2015 Report Share Posted May 17, 2015 And if you decide to go that way, I do have two brand new 185/60-13s. :thumbup: 1 Quote Link to comment
