RUSSJZ-ZED Posted January 10, 2007 Share Posted January 10, 2007 just recieved a master set , 260Z,280Z, part number listed in check list for moustache bar says 4X 1006 bushes, the ones in this kit are 4X 1003, Difference??? Is one part number for R180 bar, other for R200? Which bar do 1003 fit? Cant find a part number listing, on this site or the net, Are they an interchangeable part? Murphys law says this will be the wrong one. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MrFancypants Posted January 11, 2007 Share Posted January 11, 2007 I just put these in and I dont recall the stamp in the bushing. The R180 and R200 mustache bars are different though. Have you already pulled the bar to test fit? I cut out the old bushings and sanded the inside of the sleeve smooth and the new bushings were a perfect fit. - Greg - Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wheelman Posted January 11, 2007 Share Posted January 11, 2007 I used the Mustache bar bushings from my 240 master kit in my R200 bar and everything fit just fine. Wheelman Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RUSSJZ-ZED Posted January 11, 2007 Author Share Posted January 11, 2007 Thanks,thats what I wanted to Know.The inside diameter is the same,wasn't sure about outside,but if a 240Z(R180) fits an R 200 I should be OK,( Bars obviously different) Loath to pull it out ,burn them and then find there was a bush difference,long wait for another set to arrive. Did the USA get many 2+2 automatics?As far as I know, they were the only 260Z/280Zs that got an R180 . I will post result after I fit them, in case anyone else runs into the same p/n difference Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RUSSJZ-ZED Posted February 20, 2007 Author Share Posted February 20, 2007 This could be of help To anyone that has bought a master set laterly, the one that I got(from www.Energysuspensionparts.com) contained a moustache bar kit that contained 4x1003 bushes, these are incorrect( for Corvette) look like Datsun but a fraction bigger, total sh1t to really ruin your day, WILL NOT FIT! These kits are pre packaged, so check off your part numbers, could be a few more with incorrect parts out there.you need 4x1006 Energy Suspension(the manufacturer, not the sales outlet mentioned above) will replace/exchange the part free of charge.
