I have fitted a set of these Castor rod bushes to my 1000.
 
http://www.ebay.com.au/itm/DATSUN-Pick-UP-Truck-620-720-1977-1986-Tension-Rod-Bushing-Kit-/370514156725?pt=Vintage_Car_Truck_Parts_Accessories&hash=item56445d5cb5
 
The part numbers they list are for a 1000 Bushing & Washer,and for a 1200 collar.
They are cheap quality.
Im thinking of buying something a little higher quality to replace these with.
 
But my point is they fit 1000's so better quality ones from the models listed should fit.
(Datsun 620, 720).
 
I would guess 1200 ones should fit as well.
Has anyone tried this?

I would be interested in a set of lower control arm bushes if you make some up.

so found dundees list ... you can use 1200 lca bushes in the wishbone but they need to be drilled out 
 
lookis like i only need to make the bottom bush ... will keep you all in the loop
 
i also should note that 1200 tension/castor rod bushes should also work but i'll let you know on that too
