Guest Frank280z Posted March 8, 2001 Share Posted March 8, 2001 Are 70-early 74 front strut housings the same? MSA catalog shows different part numbers. Z Barn shows one part #. Frank Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mikelly Posted March 8, 2001 Share Posted March 8, 2001 There was a difference in the 74 model year. It is a split production with the first 2/3rd of the year being built on the 240 shell and the later 1/3rd of the year being built on the 75 shell. The later 74 strut tube housing is a larger diameter, the same as all 280Z cars. If you go to buy struts for the later model 260, you basically have to get 280 parts to fit. If you have a 240 or an early 260 (At least through 7/74 but not the 10/74 or later models..)then everything is 240style.
