Goemon Posted February 23, 2022 Report Share Posted February 23, 2022 Does anyone know where to get the slider boots? After searching all over the world, I still can't find them. The database does not include the part number for some reason. I know I could upgrade to D21 but I am trying to keep her as Datsun as possible. She got me through decades with no problems, since 1987 & me @ 60 I don't have many more decades left and don't drive as much or as fast. The boots are the last part of the puzzle. 1978-1982? calipers. I found the Yoke holders in kits at O'Reilly Thanks 1 Quote Link to comment

datzenmike Posted February 24, 2022 Report Share Posted February 24, 2022 Gripper 41137-U3401 but I would call a dust boot. 78-79 620 not '72-'79 1 Quote Link to comment
Goemon Posted February 24, 2022 Author Report Share Posted February 24, 2022 Yeah, Mine is a 79. I finally found the number after I posted and looked for hours with no luck for hours last night. It looks these were on 1978-1983 trucks by looking at the diagram but not having any luck. I found the number in 1980 720 diagram. No matter what I call it with the number, I can't find them. I only come here when I have run out of luck in my searches hoping someone knows where they might be found. Partsouq is out, I will try Amayama I suppose. They have came up short on the last 2 parts they said they had in stock. Partsouq showed stock and came back and said they were out......UGH!!!!! This is the earliest pic I have of my 79 KC. 1987, the year I purchased her for hauling dirt bikes. I am talking to the guy in the brown truck on the right, My buddy Bob on the CR 125, I was a Kaw-Boy...good ol days !!! Randy, Big Red in the group shot facing the camera passed a few yrs ago. I just hit 60 last month....gettin old & rebuilding my Bessie to be my daily again 1 Quote Link to comment

Goemon Posted August 28, 2022 Author Report Share Posted August 28, 2022 Actually I have seen 77 620's with disc, they were not in the USA and not converted they could have been post August models Quote Link to comment
