The engine-mounting cross-member is what Datsun calls the "front suspension member", also known as x-member (X for cross).

Also See: Engine Mounts (for rubber insulators and engine brackets)

The engine crossmember for the Datsun 1200 fits the 1971-1973 A12 engine. The A10 engine from the earlier Datsun 1000 will also bolt in. To fit a newer engine -- a 1974-up A12 or A13, A14 or A15 -- a newer crossmember may be used, or an modified motor mount brackets may be fabricated (see A-series Engine Swaps). The newer crossmember is from the 1974-up Datsun 1200 truck. Note that B210 or other crossmembers do not fit the 1200.

For engine types other than A-series, see: Engine Swaps

PB110 Crossmember

L14-powered B210 uses L-series towers and mid-sump design.

B210 Comparison

120Y vs B110
12432.jpgAlbum 12432
120Y (A12-powered B210) is slighty wider, and of course has late style mounts suitable for late A12 + A14/A15.

North American A13/A14-powered B210 has a mid-sump crossmember, almost exactly identical to the 510 crossmember. See L/Z/KA/SR_Crossmember.

Crossmember Bolting Dimensions
B110  656   mm X 60mm
B210  760.6 mm X 62mm(?) or 80mm(?)
