Phlebmaster Posted September 12, 2008 Report Share Posted September 12, 2008 She looks awesome! We will have to get together sometime when you get her finished. I love that motor!! Keep up the good work. Quote Link to comment
Farmer Posted September 14, 2008 Author Report Share Posted September 14, 2008 Thanks for the comments guys. those are 2 inch drop spindles and cant decide if I want to go with the v-6 rotor w/4x4 calipers or stay with the 4cyl 2 wheel drive setup. I just need to get it mobile so I can take it to a friends and have some body work done. Larry Quote Link to comment
Greiggy Posted September 14, 2008 Report Share Posted September 14, 2008 Collection of Rubbers and such Larry hey where did you get the little acorn looking upper bump stop rubbers from? im needing a set for mine pretty badly... Quote Link to comment
Farmer Posted September 14, 2008 Author Report Share Posted September 14, 2008 Got them from my local dealer and cant remeber the part number. The manual says they're rebound bumpers. Larry Quote Link to comment
yello620 Posted September 14, 2008 Report Share Posted September 14, 2008 Can we ask about how much it ost to get those parts powder coated? Thinking that if the price is right that it might not be worth the rattle can jobs that most people do. Jason Quote Link to comment
Farmer Posted September 14, 2008 Author Report Share Posted September 14, 2008 What you see in the picture, cost me $180.00 Larry Quote Link to comment
yello620 Posted September 15, 2008 Report Share Posted September 15, 2008 Thats a little more than i wanted to hear, but it sure beats the hell out of rattle can, especially after a few years of use. Jason Quote Link to comment
ppeters914 Posted September 15, 2008 Report Share Posted September 15, 2008 I just need to make time and bust some wrenches to get on the road, but when I see pics like this I wanna tear everything apart and do it up right. Of course, do it up right = mucho dinero. :( Quote Link to comment

Farmer Posted October 23, 2008 Author Report Share Posted October 23, 2008 im terribly sorry but im very new to datsun. What front suspension is that? will it bolt onto a 521? and where did you get the 2" drop spindles? Its acutally the stock suspension. (78 620) Just powder coated. Got the drop spindle off of ebay. http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/_Car-Truck-Parts-Accessories__84-97-NISSAN-HARDBODY-DROP-SPINDLES-PICKUP-LOWERING-720_W0QQitemZ120321748240QQadnZCarQ20Q26Q20TruckQ20PartsQ20Q26Q20AccessoriesQQadiZ2865QQcmdZViewItem?hash=item120321748240&_trkparms=72%3A543%7C39%3A1%7C65%3A12%7C240%3A1318&_trksid=p4506.c0.m245 As for the 521, not a bolt on option. You have to go with custom control arms and such. There are threads about it around the site. Larry Quote Link to comment
