DSS Datsun 510 / 240Z with R180 differential 108mm CV Conversion Kit DAR3

Starting with the 108mm bolt circle on the CV joints, this kit from Driveshaft Shop is built to handle more power and offer better reliability for your Datsun 510 or 240Z. If you're looking to upgrade the drivetrain on your classic Nissan, especially if you've added more power or plan to, converting your R180 differential to CV axles is a smart move. Stock U-jointed axles can be a weak point under stress, leading to premature wear or even failure. This conversion replaces those with modern Constant Velocity (CV) joints, which are designed to operate smoothly at higher angles and transmit torque more efficiently.

The kit includes everything needed to adapt your R180 differential to accept these stronger CV axles. You'll get the necessary CV joints, axles, and mounting hardware specifically designed to fit your 1968-1973 Datsun 510 or your 1970-1973 240Z. The 108mm CVs are a notable step up from smaller, older designs, offering a robust solution for enthusiasts who want to push their cars a bit harder or simply want the peace of mind that comes with a well-built drivetrain. This conversion is a popular choice for those rebuilding or modifying their classic Datsun's rear end, aiming for improved performance and longevity.

When installing this kit, ensure you follow the manufacturer's instructions carefully for proper alignment and assembly. This conversion is a significant upgrade that can change how your car handles power delivery, making it a worthwhile investment for anyone serious about their Datsun's performance and reliability.
