Factory R-180 Differential Mount Insulator, 79-83 280ZX

Unfortunately, this item has been discontinued by Nissan. Be sure to check back later in case we are able to locate any remaining stock or alternatives! (Click on the red "Availability" icon above for more details.)

Includes:

• (1) R-180 Differential Mount

Description:
If you hear a clunking sound when you shift gears while driving your 280ZX, one of the more likely culprits is the differential insulator. Over time, the rubber in the insulator ages and wears, which eventually allows for significant play in the driveline that results in the clunking sound. Replacing the mount is the only way to fix the problem and prevent total failure of the mount; a potentially disastrous situation. Genuine, original equipment (OEM) mounts like this one are the best for most street driven applications.

Note:
Unfortunately, Nissan discontinued this mount many years ago. Although there is no official supercession or service file, the R-200 version of the mount is nearly identical to this R-180 version. The key difference between the two is that the R-180 uses 12mm studs for the mount while the R-200 uses 14mm studs. This means that the R-200 mount has stud holes that are larger than the original R-180 mount. When properly positioned and torqued, the R-200 mount will work as a suitable replacement. While Nissan USA has discontinued both versions, we were able to locate a limited supply of the R-200 version in Japan. See 10-2254 in Related Items.
