The jig in the pictures can be seen on www.vord.net/cars/240z/
It is based on the Factory manual 1972 Factory service manual (available to download
from http://www.xenons30.com/reference.html ) Should that page disappear, the only
bit really missing in the reproduction here is the 913mm dimension between the
center of the strut tops.
The drawings in this file were produced free hand and are not to scale. All
calculations were done in my head. I may have made mistakes and you should check
the dimensions before using them yourself.
The original vertical zero in the manual is the lower surface of the floor panel (so far
as I can make out). My zero is the top face of the flat surface that the jig sits on
(200mm lower). This is to allow access with welders and angle grinders.
The jig was constructed using 5mm plate and 50mm square box with 2.5mm wall
thickness.
There are only side to side and vertical dimensions in this pdf. I’ll make sure the foreaft dimensions are the same each side on this car, but those dimensions I’ll take from
the shell itself. It occurs to me that some people searching for chassis jigs might have
suffered a frontal crash. The factory manual reproduced on the next page should offer
some good clues for fore-aft dimensions.
