Turdbuster Posted April 28, 2022 Report Share Posted April 28, 2022 I purchased a January 1981 720 4x4 with a utility bed on it which seems pretty odd. Reading made the bed. Was it produced like that? More importantly the decals on the front side fenders read. Datson by Nissan on them. This confuses me. Shouldn’t it be the other way around? Nissan by Datson?

DuallyDatsun Posted April 28, 2022 Report Share Posted April 28, 2022 Technically the Datsun name was only created by Nissan for the American market. So Datsun by Nissan would be correct. 1 Quote Link to comment
datzenmike Posted April 28, 2022 Report Share Posted April 28, 2022 It was decided to 'hard' change the Datsun name back to Nissan around '82/'83 but before this in '79 the emblems started a 'soft' change from DATSUN to DATSUN by NISSAN to prepare the public. Some '83/'84 720s had a DATSUN decal in a secondary position on the tailgate and the 300zx and the Maxima both had a secondary DATSUN emblem on the rear hatch/trunk into '86. 1 1 Quote Link to comment

datzenmike Posted April 29, 2022 Report Share Posted April 29, 2022 I get Nissan # 43224-10W00 but better get confirmation. I got this because there was a difference between the front and rear nuts. 1 Quote Link to comment

DuallyDatsun Posted April 30, 2022 Report Share Posted April 30, 2022 You might need to call into a dealership. See if anyone has them on hand, and take one in to compare. That's the best way I can think of to confirm. Might need to order through a dealer, but that usually makes it easy to return if it's not the right part, too. Quote Link to comment

Turns out that the 43224-10W00 are also used on the D21 Hardbody and later Frontier... https://www.ebay.com/itm/111704577750 Again my number may be wrong. Quote Link to comment
