Posted August 25, 200321 yr comment_47787 Anybody know if the front crossmember from a '76 280Z will work on a 240Z? Thanks. Link to comment https://www.classiczcars.com/forums/topic/7632-front-crossmember-application/ Share on other sites More sharing options...

August 26, 200321 yr Author comment_47838 Thanks, I can't think of any reason why either, but there might be something. I'm picking up an NOS crossmember on e-bay for $30, so if it isn't right, maybe I can find someone with a 280 that wants it. It LOOKS right, but there may be some suspension point mounting differences or maybe the rack mounts differently. Anyway, not much invested if it doesn't work out. Mine is intact, but very rusty and has some dents in the bottom from inappropriate jacking or hitting road hazards. Thanks.

August 26, 200321 yr comment_47845 The crossmember from the '76 280Z I had looked like the one from my 240Z. I didn't specifically compare the two so I can't be certain. But I do know for a fact, that the front control arms are identical. I checked on that part. So mounting issues (w/ regard to the controls) should not be a problem.

August 27, 200321 yr comment_47917 the 280z crossmember differs slightly, but will bolt in directly to a 240z. it's a little beefier than the 240 one Link to comment https://www.classiczcars.com/forums/topic/7632-front-crossmember-application/#findComment-47917 Share on other sites More sharing options...
