Please advise me where to find rubber bushings and spindle pins for the rear of a 78/280z. I have read that poly bushings will cause a harsh ride and am wanting to go back original. Any advice is appreciated JB

Check out www.thezstore.com they have a lot of stock and performance parts for the Z &ZX models. www.blackdragonauto.com. has a wide range of stock and performance parts and you can order a hard copy catalogue online.

See www.thezstore.com/page/TZS/CTGY/SSSC01C02 for stock mechanical rear suspension stuff.

Don't overlook your local Nissan dealer. I am switching back to rubber bushings away from poly, I don't like the ride quality. Courtesy Nissan Parts website came up with all the bushings for the rear LCA's. The inner bushings are 55554-E4100 at $13.78 and 55555-E4100 at $11.49. Outer bushings are 55541-E4100 at $9.57. As MSA points out, they are all the same for 240-260-280Z's. Hope this helps.

Thanks very much for the replies. I will check with the dealer for bushings ans spindle pins, Thanks again. JB

I think the key is to leave at least one rubber interface in any of the four suspension points. That is, don't use 100% poly in your suspension.
