diff head

Post by whittleone »

hey guys,

i have a 1978 datsun 160j sss violet with a solid rear end and I'm looking for another diff head for it?

is there any other diff heads that fit this model?

if anyone has one out there i am willing to buy it etc etc

also anyone have any windscreen chrome along the bottom of the windscreen, chrome trim on the left hand door along the bottom of the window and pretty much and other parts that would fit this car i could be interested in

cheers!

is it a 710, or an A10?
If it's an A10 with a solid rear axle, (or even 710 sedans had them too so I believe) then it's an H165. Should be the same as a 910 wagon, L16 powered 910 sedan, Early C20 vannette (round headlight model I think?) and datsun 1200 ute. (Must be ute though)

after looking around on google I've come to the conclusion it must be a P710 as the cars look similar but i still cannot find the same shape and style as my one?
