Anderson521 Posted November 30, 2015 Author Report Share Posted November 30, 2015 Thanks Draker So anywho there's the driveshaft, I plan on sprucing it up a lil just for aesthetics. It's longer than I need so when it comes time to match it to the rear end it can be cut down and welded up with the proper u joints Quote Link to comment
Anderson521 Posted November 30, 2015 Author Report Share Posted November 30, 2015 Another shot from the passenger side. Engine is currently out so motor mounts can be accessed for proper welding as they are only tacked in at this time 2 Quote Link to comment
datson4life Posted November 30, 2015 Report Share Posted November 30, 2015 Im pretty sure that 521 went thru my hands, rusted out bottom of passenger door? Quote Link to comment
datson4life Posted November 30, 2015 Report Share Posted November 30, 2015 Yup, just went back a few pages, i installed those bicycle mirrors just to have mirrors and not get pulled over, i only bought that truck cause it had like 3k in engine goodies with ka, left it a rolling shell and sold it, had plans but baby arrived and could only keep one project This is where i blew the diff, only drove that truck one week 1 Quote Link to comment
datson4life Posted November 30, 2015 Report Share Posted November 30, 2015 Glad its in good hands, looking forward to finished product Quote Link to comment
Anderson521 Posted November 30, 2015 Author Report Share Posted November 30, 2015 Damn that's super cool, I always wondered how that diff broke, awesome to have some history of the vehicle Quote Link to comment
Anderson521 Posted November 30, 2015 Author Report Share Posted November 30, 2015 Those are some dope rims too Quote Link to comment

datson4life Posted November 30, 2015 Report Share Posted November 30, 2015 I was just cruising on the freeway when it went boom lol That diff was sketchy since i installed it so i wasnt surprised, i bought that truck with a blown diff too lol, so its on its 3rd or 4th diff, poor truck was born to be abused lol Quote Link to comment
datson4life Posted November 30, 2015 Report Share Posted November 30, 2015 But the day before i was playing lol Quote Link to comment
sebpv Posted November 30, 2015 Report Share Posted November 30, 2015 so 3rd, 4th diff? Perhaps the problem is elsewhere? Quote Link to comment
datson4life Posted November 30, 2015 Report Share Posted November 30, 2015 so 3rd, 4th diff? Perhaps the problem is elsewhere? By what i saw, it was lowered without proper diff angle, the ka had solid mounts, had hard spec stage 3 clutch and driveline had absolutely no play, Quote Link to comment
nismo dr Posted November 30, 2015 Report Share Posted November 30, 2015 because racetruck Quote Link to comment
Anderson521 Posted November 30, 2015 Author Report Share Posted November 30, 2015 I seriously would've never guessed that it had a ka in it because the guy in Modesto sold it to me with a l18 and a tranny in the bed. Did it go to the junkyard before or after you? It has make and model paint on the fender and roof Quote Link to comment

Anderson521 Posted December 9, 2015 Author Report Share Posted December 9, 2015 Here's the headers next to the steering column, it's got about 1/16-1/8 gap 2 Quote Link to comment
Anderson521 Posted December 9, 2015 Author Report Share Posted December 9, 2015 Since I honestly can't weld for shit I called in the big guns 5 Quote Link to comment
banzai510(hainz) Posted December 9, 2015 Report Share Posted December 9, 2015 Here's the headers next to the steering column, it's got about 1/16-1/8 gap. This is a BIG PROPLEM hopefully you get that better or maybe the stock cast manifold might fit better dont throw away the datsun 521 manifold and the Y pipe with it, people can use them Quote Link to comment
Anderson521 Posted December 9, 2015 Author Report Share Posted December 9, 2015 What are you saying it'll melt the column? Quote Link to comment
