Are hatch struts different?

Featured Replies

Hi all,

Courtesy Nissan is having a sale on '79-'83 280ZX hatch struts where you buy one and get a heavy duty one free.

Buy 1 get 1 free

Are hatch struts interchangeable? If so, I can use them on my 240Z...

Thanks,

Guycali

The 280ZX struts are diff than the 260/280 struts, and the 240 struts are further different, PLUS - IIRC - all 240's were 1-strut cars.

I don't understand the bit about buy one regular, get a free heavy duty.

Left and right struts should be the same unless maybe there was a 280ZX offered with a rear wiper, and so that side of the hatch with the wiper has a heavy duty strut. Just a guess on that reason, I'm not a ZX person.
