B310 Bumpers

From Datsun 1200 Technical
Jump to navigation Jump to search

Large park-bench bumpers were optional on Australia and Japan-market B310s. As usual, North America required the large bumpers while other countries got a choice, including still-boxy but lighter bumpers and simple full-chrome versions.





One-piece VS three-piece Bumpers

One-piece bumper bar is fashioned of a single piece of steel. It may or may not have rubber covers over the ends

Post 489047


Three piece bumper consists a larger channel-shaped steel piece, and REQUIRED rubber end-covers. The channel piece is straight with no curved end -- only the rubber curves around the side of the car

Post 497110


The JDM/AUS three-piece bumper is a shock-absorber design which appears to be derived from the 1975 USA B210 5-mph bumper design (resistant to body damage in low-speed collision).

Album 24358



One-piece Bumpers

Early bumpers are one-piece, and continued to be used even after other styles were introduced. In Japan, they were used on all B310 except Wagon (WB310). One-piece bumpers were available with or without rubber end-caps and rubber strips.

Three-piece Bumpers

A three-piece bumper has a channel-section center bar and each end is bolted to it. Thus, three pieces.


  • Regular type mounted with stays
  • Safety type mounted with shock absorbers


Post 492695


Regular type mounted with stays * Wagon (WB310 sport wagon/"Sunny California") * NOT AVAILABLE Van (VB310 regular wagon)


type mounted with shock absorbers * JDM OPTION: Wagon, A14/A15 Sedan, A14/A15 Coupe * AUS Sunny 1400 * USA STANDARD EQUIPMENT for all #North America B310 including A12A cars


3-piece bumpers use a channel-shaped stamping. The ends are all plastic (there is no metal underneath the plastic)


  • Large bumpers have no cutout for number plate
  • No number plate lamps in bumper, but use a side-lit plate
  • No reverse lamps in bumper (except JDM California wagon)

3-piece bumpers are much heavier, with a complex cross-section.

Misc

Custom: Silver painted metal bumper (old-style STD look). B310 didn't use painted bumpers like B110 standard, but it makes for an interesting appearance.
