TheRedWrench

Welp.... its been about 7 years since i've update this.... I bet you all thought that this project was parted out and never finished... (thats usually what happends) But for the 7 of you that still exist, here is a little update...... I didnt upload to ratsun due to the photobucket lockedown years ago. and I was more excited to have a working truck that i didnt think about uploading. Soooooo, you may have seen my MAAD620.... you can find it on Youtube, or Amazon where its used as a display photo for ponretro's front lip. or maybe youve seen it at Walmart, where JADA toys made a model of my truck (even put my name on it) This thing has been running perfectly. I did go coilovers up front and got the KA rebuilt. Im now an advanced tech for Mercedes, so I had enough $$$ to buy custom built wheels from Love20bee. My instagram is Fredwrench . i'll likely never post here again....... but it was cool to re read my own thread 🙂 Much love to all my OG Ratsun fam.

I approve this message.

i think im getting my trans mixed up. ....yup, ka trans only have the dust cover, no seal (my bad) so you're gonna fill from the shifter right?

remove the side fill plug and put your finger in it, If you can feel any oil, youre low. when you remove the driveshaft remember to put in a new seal there too

Yes its too short, and i'd say youre also well under the full mark on gear oil. Under acceleration all the fluid is going back and spilling out. What trans are you using?

I got 2 left and 2 right from rock auto a while back. I still cant tell the physical difference. If someone could let us know, that would be awesome. I haven't installed them for that very reason

Drove my KaKc 620 around the block for the first time in 11 months since I started the engine swap! I didn't even get out of my driveway and someone already gave me the head nod of approval! Then again it currently is running open header lol! A huge thank you to the Ratsun community! I'll post a link to my build thread in the comments. This thing has a long way to go! More oics to come soon once the exhaust gets done!

I did want just a wee bit of tire stretch without it looking 'hellaflush' or whatever. I went to a used tire place and had them put on a junk tire for $10 on one of the wheels just so I could make sure I would like how it looked.

-19 Still have to run a bit of a spacer to clear the calipers

This is more of an update for myself. Today (just now) I finally got this KA running properly! All it took me was 10 months and more money than I would like to ever add up! Im so excited that I can start getting this thing ready for Canby and ready for me! I got some BEAUTIFUL Mazda 3 heated leather seats ready to go in and I'm going to design the interior off of the seats! I also just got a NEW full time job for a company making monster truck parts. Im going to see if I can design and build my own roll cage (because drift truck) All the dirty work is pretty much done! Now its all about maintenance and modifications to make this thing MY OWN! Canby or bust!

^^^^ Needs moar low

DDDDouble post

I had the same issue. turns out, i was missing 1 tiny ground wire (mine was the one on the same loom as the 02 sensor) just double check all of your grounds. I printed out the wiring diagram for the 240, which helped me find where all the grounds are supposed to be properly connected to.
