Similar but not same as 280zx strut. need help identifying

Post by sexyL »

I have this odd strut that is similar in terms of appearance to the 280zx struts. looks like same rotors and calipers, but when looking at the spindle it sticks out perpendicular to the strut tube, at a close 90deg. the 280zx have the spindle angled down a bit. what strut is this off of?
Oh, and if someone has a front left 280zx strut they want to sell pm me :D

False alarm, guys. After further inspection, the tube appears to be bent at the base making it seem like it's sticking straight up. Meh, what a waste of a perfectly good 280zx strut.
