zgeezer Posted March 27, 2011 Share Posted March 27, 2011 I know this has been answered somewhere in this forum, but I haven't found it. Over the years, I rebuilt my struts. I don't recall if I used 280 struts in the back or not. The struts are installed and my Z looks to be a bit high in the back. My strut outside diameter on the back is 2.025 inches. Is this a 280Z unit? G Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
z2go Posted March 27, 2011 Share Posted March 27, 2011 Not sure on the OD of the 280z struts, but if it helps, I just measured my 72 240z struts, and got 2.025 as well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks, the strut sectioning threads refer to the 280z as having a larger OD than the 240s, so I think I'm home free and I installed the 240 struts. The problem with mix and matching Z parts over the years is keeping track of all of it. I have a stuffed 3 inch binder noting various changes, but it d/n mention the struts.
