The Verified Alternative: When the factory part became unobtainable, Australian restorers discovered that the front bump stop / rebound bumper from a Datsun 1200 (B110) or Datsun Bluebird (510) uses an identical base diameter and matching metric thread pitch. Brands like Protex and Kelpro manufacture these. They function identically to the B10 front spring support when bolted into the lower control arm link pin bracket.
Can anyone verify its claimed? Has anyone used aftermarket bumpstops repurposed as front spring supports?
