  1. No,I have 14 inch "ST" rims on my 620 with late 720 disc's.Now you might have to go to 15 inch rims if you use Hardbody disc/spindle/rotor set-up.
  2. If it doesn't leak just sitting there,and it starts leaking when you start the engine,It is the rear main seal.Nothing else is going to put lube on the ground just sitting there running.
  3. Thanks for proving my point.Carry on.
  4. You really need top brush up on reading comprehension. 1)Yes. And you have ZERO experience. 2)Stories.BFD. 3)See above. 4)No-one is talking about failure.(comprehension thing again) 5)I'm not looking for anything. This is public board and when someone puts up patently false information-I counter it. Simple. 6)And based from the OP's last post, he's looking for advice-not opinion. And no place did I say drums were superior to Disc. Car buyers actually option-deleted disc in favor of drum brakes.But you wouldn't know that.Or why. Edit:DatsunMike has it right above.
  5. If you switch to a good solid rotors,your braking will improve. Wayne-I wasn't going to get into that...until a choice was made.And you are talking about the proportioning valve-right?
  6. Drums are no different to change than rotors-if you have a clue or two.Daniel is correct about the heat issue. As for the adjusters, clean them and use anti-seize. They'll be fine. And at some point Datsun changed to self -adjusting brakes(I forget when).The major drag about switching to disc is the king pin issue. But there are folks on here that make kits for just this problem.
  7. 1)Ahh,no.Actually the same maintenance-just different. 2)Adjusting can be a PITA. 3) In-correct-brake drums actually have more "stopping" power because they have more "swept area", but they lose it when they heat up. Converting to disc in front is still worth it. The back? Don't bother unless you are tracking the vehicle.
  8. You would be correct.THe whole industry was effected.
  9. THe plug I'm talking about is on the harness that comes from the dash and exits the cab and feeds the bed of the truck.Which means brake & running lights,turn signals and fuel sender.
  10. He didn't lose.And we could use about 150 Sheriffs just like him.
  11. Maybe.I had a temp/fuel gauge issue.Relaced the temp gauge and it worked.But the Fuel gauge was still dead.Started tracing and when I "un-bent" where the harness exits the cab floor,the gauge came to life.
  12. There is also a plug under the passenger seat.
  13. I thought we weren't supposed to post any pussy shots?
  14. Hmmmmmm-i parted one of those(79 2=door) out a little bit ago and the hood didn't have one.......
