Hi,

where would I buy rear axle nut(s) for a '75 240K ?,

I rang my local Nissan dealer, and spoke to a guy in "spare parts", he almost laughed at me,

and told me he could not get them.

I know I can buy a bearing kit, which has the bearings, seals, and nut, but at $50 ish each side, it's a bit more than I want to spend for 2 nuts.

I have also tried the local "nut & bolt" shop, but he could not supply a nut with the "metal lip" for the locking bit

so any help would be appreciated

and before you ask why I'm taking the rear axles out, it to fit the brackets for my disc conversion

Why you need to replace them?

You destroy them getting them off???

It's something I have never had to do, as I got the originals off without any problems.

Have you tried another 240K wreck, or better to us, have you measured the size so we might be able to interchange something else???

The locking ring can get wrecked when removing the nut, (I have to replace bearing on one side), it's full of locktight at the moment, but I like the locking "ring" to make sure it doesn't come lose.. I'll upload a picture later, so you can see how the nut works with the axle

    • I don’t really have any ideas how to set the timing on the CAS 😂, sounds like the top, sounds like it maybe misfiring as well as ticking,  got the box sorted 😌, must of been a air bubble on the clutch side
    • Use a 2' length of hose (that's 2 foot, not 2 inches) as a stethoscope to localise the source of the ticking. From cam covers? From exhaust or turbo manifold gasket? From injectors? From lower down in the engine? Etc. Use a timing light to set the timing. Put Redline Lightweight Shockproof in the box. It's not the very best thing for the box, but it will take a box that refuses to engage a gear with other oil, and make it engage a gear. I had to put it in when I installed the R33 box I have in my car. It would not select ANY gear when running. Smurf jizz made it work. That was >10 years ago and I still use it. I'm stuck with it now. Failing that - rebuild the box.
    • Well done Duncan. The fuel tank bulkhead lid is also in great condition (some of mine were stuffed). These are now out of production and good ones like that are becoming hard to come by.
    • Wow that's a steal, you've done well there.
