I guess thats what i have to do this weekend is to tear down the door and clean and grease up them parts... and hopefully find a set of locks so i can atleast lock the doors..

HELLO GENTS. all this information is good stuff, specially for me who just recently bought a 73 240Z and in definite need of a suspension upgrade. I was shopping arround for new Struts and one of the guys were saying that KYB was a good set. I had KYB's before on my honda and i thought they were a little too soft. but for the price i couldnt beat it. Can anyone shed some light on this? i know I have to replace all the bushings already, I just want that nice stiff and comfortable ride also... thanks

i just recently purchased a 73 datsun 240Z and the darn locks dont work on both sides so my car is parked unlocked only with a clutch lock on it. it sux, but can someone pls tell me where to get a set of door locks including the rear hatch.

hello people. I too am new to the site and i just recent ly have bought a 73 datsun 240Z, the car has seen better days but the engine is in great condition, from what the owners told me, they have the original L24 on it with N42 head and the original SU carbs. but the body needs some extra attention. all the rubber on the car is rotten and the interior needs all the trimmings. i dont even know where to start on her. The first thing i wanna know i swhere can i find the axles for this vehicle because the boots on both sides are torn and needs replacing. I was talking to another Z enthusiast and he told me that the axles from a 280Z would work better and stronger. If so, what year vehicle should i get this from? i really want to get it done but the shops are talking about $400 just to replace em, and i really wanna put in the wrench time on her. it gives me something to do on the weekends... hahahaha so pls fellow Z owners, can you give me some tips on how to do this?
