changes from 9/71 diff.

Featured Replies

Dear members,

Who can give me answers?

in 9/71 the differentail was moved back and a 35mm longer

drive shaft was required. I know this.

But what dit they change ? and is it possible too change it

at my car aswell? type HLS30-03091 april 1970.

I have all kinds off drive shafts 2x 4speed/2x5speed.

Thanks a lot Damian.

Not quite sure but I think you have to use the later rear mounting bar and front rubber mount.

One thing I've found around here is that if you are wrong you soon get corrected.:)

Thank you Richard,

I can"t find good information or pictures in books.

Is there anyone who can show it by pictures?

I looked under the car and still wonder how they

moved the differential 35mm to the back .

with other mountings? But are the hanging points on the

bottom the same.?

Excuses for my charcoal englisch.

Well the differential is located on the front rubber mount and the rear mounting bar which bolts to the back of the diff. Forgot to mention the tailshaft which would be a different length.

How about you compare the parts mentioned above to those from a later model, or have a look at a later model? There is/was a Z car club in Holland, too. BTW Damain, your English is better than my Dutch.:)

thanks Richard,

I shell look under an 1972 z to see the difference.

This is still a problem just a few people know.

The reason I want to change it is because Iwant to

reduce the vibration problem from the differential axles.

Thanks a lot for thinking with me.

Damian.
