spiffinspudater Posted October 9, 2007 Author Report Share Posted October 9, 2007 Sweet I have the baggie for my handle crank, but I did not know they made them for the jack and the rod. How would the rod bag fit in the brackets made for holding it? Dunno, not my problem:P Lol. I have no idea how these were stored or anything like that, I just have them:D Quote Link to comment
spiffinspudater Posted October 9, 2007 Author Report Share Posted October 9, 2007 What LED's did you use for the dash? Dam they are bright! Those are ebay specials. I have a link in one of my threads... I will look for it in a few. Quote Link to comment
spiffinspudater Posted October 10, 2007 Author Report Share Posted October 10, 2007 Haha this is kinda what I want my truck to look like... Purple primer till I can afford the body work and a real paint job. But I would want my Titan Rims. I think that will take a couple years. Quote Link to comment

mklotz70 Posted October 11, 2007 Report Share Posted October 11, 2007 Sweet I have the baggie for my handle crank, but I did not know they made them for the jack and the rod. How would the rod bag fit in the brackets made for holding it? The long rod goes in the brackets with the rubber "U's" mounted on the rear wall behind the seat. There is supposed to be an attachment point for the jack right behind the driver. I think the bag with the handles was left loose and sliding around :) Quote Link to comment
spiffinspudater Posted October 23, 2007 Author Report Share Posted October 23, 2007 Here are some Pics... 65@3000RPMS (JY tach) Here are some of my tierod ends and bushings and stuff... Pac Coast requested them to help me with my 1/8 stearing wheel turn without actually turning the wheels. Quote Link to comment

]2eDeYe Posted October 23, 2007 Report Share Posted October 23, 2007 Yep, the only specialty tools you'll need is a tie-rod pickle fork, a ball joint pickle fork and a BFH... Quote Link to comment
Pacific coast Datsun Posted October 23, 2007 Report Share Posted October 23, 2007 Ya looks like worn steering bushings & ball joints which is kinda normal for a 78. At this point Javin have somebody grab the rim & move it around while you look @ all the joints to see whats moving in excess. Quote Link to comment
