az_rat210 Posted December 9, 2016 Report Share Posted December 9, 2016 I think my steering coupler has worn out (goes between gearbox and steering column). Unable to locate a new one on the web. Anyone know if a steering coupler from a different datsun vehicle will fit? Thanks in advance. Quote Link to comment
datzenmike Posted December 9, 2016 Report Share Posted December 9, 2016 Rag joint?? Looks like circular rubber? Quote Link to comment
Icehouse Posted December 9, 2016 Report Share Posted December 9, 2016 Might try a 510, they share the LCA's, TC rods, tie rods and almost the same crossmember. Worth a shot. Quote Link to comment
datzenmike Posted December 9, 2016 Report Share Posted December 9, 2016 The 510 uses a small U joint somewhat like those used on the 720. The B-210 rubber coupling (or rag joint) is also common to the '77-'80 810, '77-'79 S10 (first gen 200sx) and the '80-'83 S110 (second gen 200sx).... same part. If you mean something else say so.

az_rat210 Posted December 11, 2016 Author Report Share Posted December 11, 2016 Thank you for the information. It is greatly appreciated. Now I just have find one. It is a rag joint style. Between the column and gear box. Quote Link to comment
datzenmike Posted December 11, 2016 Report Share Posted December 11, 2016 I made one once out of 3/8" thick rubber conveyor belt. Just used a drinking glass to draw the circle and drilled 4 holes for the bolts. It's still on the 620. It had a mixture of 720 column and D21 power steering box. The bolt patterns were not the same.
