Berta720

Ok so since 720 king cab rear window seals do not exist and mine is super hard and has cracked out in the corners. I was thinking what if I bought a standard cab seal and hacked it apart to make it fit my king cab? Maybe buy two seals and make 1 with hopefully only 1 or 2 cuts and some weatherstrip adhesive. Or does anyone know of a universal rear window seal that you could make work. I'm going to look at my local glass shop tonight but wanted to see what you guys knew.

My window got smashed out of my truck somehow and my old rubber is a bit dry and the corners are all cracked out I can maybe reuse it but do I have any hope finding one overseas that actually fits mine is original 40 years old and has been in the sun its whole life. Should I try it? Or is there one online somewhere that would work?

here is a diagram I drew up of basically all the wiring you need to add to the truck then just figure out which wire is hot for low and high beam and hook those up to the relays and you are set. Factory controls and high beam indicator even works. Will take some pictures of the truck soon

Just thought I would start this topic to try and provide info for other people trying to put led headlights in their 720. I know it took me and a buddy all night of trial and error to figure out how to do it. I will post up some pics and draw up a wiring diagram later to show you guys how I did it. Basically you use the factory relay and fuse to activate two other relays that you have to wire in with fused battery power. And you connect those two relays to your lights. One acts as just power on but runs power through the second relay because you need to use 87 and 87a on the second relay as that one activates your high and low beams, but all the factory relay does is activate the ones you installed. This way everything is fused and the factory controls all work as normal including the high beam indicator. Only thing is if you want all four headlights to have low beam you will need to rob the low beam wires from another truck which I haven't done yet.

OK I will check some engine stuff out. I mean I do goon drive my truck almost all the time and anything would be better than how it runs now. I will do a carb job and see then check my valve lash just incase. My truck does have 370000km and I don't exactly treat it nice. Thanks for all the help again guys. When I get around to checking it out I will let you know. Still might get a weber one day though.

Ya will clean up the carb and try to tune it better and check some other stuff. Could it be coils going bad even? because at full throttle it just breaks apart idek how to describe it. And ok 32/36 is the right one, I just thought it was more performance with the outlaw. All I have is a header on my 720. Ok well I have a plan but those factory carbs suck to tune or at least I don't know how. Would there happen to be a thread on here for tuning factory z22 carb. I also have all the emissions vacuum controls all ripped off so that might be a couple of my problems. But thanks for the info guys

Inflation inflation inflation, gets everything. Ya I will clean the carb again but I will still get a weber one day. I found this website as well https://www.carburetion.com/Products/ProductDetails.aspx?part=K662-38 its cheaper but maybe sketchier I'm not sure

My old carb just runs like a bag all the time I cant go full throttle without is being weird and lately if I let off I basically have a pop bang tune. Ive been looking for a weber redline kit but none are for sale on ebay anymore, does anyone here have one they want to sell or know of where to buy one? Thanks I just want to have full potential of my engine there

its an 81 or 82 and i definitely don't have a factory Nissan service manual. Are there any online places to buy one that actually covers the diesels?

Hey all I have recently purchased a 720 with an sd22 and got it to crank over but not even a hint at firing. I have a hanes manual but they don't go over any diesel engine info. And some things just seem confusing such as the throttle cable is connected to a plate in the intake and the injection pump is hooked to some goofy looking thing down on the engine, does the throttle run off vacuum or something goofy? I had some good pressured fuel going to it and was trying to get it to bleed but my priming pump is stuck. The old girl has been sitting for a long time has normal rot like old brittle hoses and such and i will get good fuel in the tank and i have to find the right key too i got it to on but then was using a starter button so maybe that was stopping the fuel shutoff from opening? Does anyone have much insight on these engines and any tips to get them going without hopefully buying too many expensive parts.

ok i was going to put the switch on the secondary linkage or something anyhow, will def need a wide band so I know what is going on and if I can just drill the secondary jet that would be minty

Well I only need to richen the engine up a bit so I can install a small nitrous dry shot because I really want to put NOS on something.

was looking around and wondering if you guys put different carbs on z engines much or if you just run stock carbs, Im not looking for crazy power gains just get rid of the dumb emissions that are actually causing me troubles and allow me to change jetting and stuff but still have a good functioning choke so I can daily the thing easily.

ya after looking underneath my truck one day I realized all that stuff was in the way lol

ok so with the whole modifying the oil pan thing, is it ever possible to just modify the cross member, like reverse c notch kind of thing or does the sump fall directly on the cross member
