Glengemen Posted June 26, 2007 Report Share Posted June 26, 2007 Damn, that thing looks good, I wish that I could tear my truck apart, and clean it up like that. As for the electrical, I am going to ask the imple question that everyone including myself misses: Did you check the fuses? I always feel like as ass after I chase a problem and it is a fuse:rolleyes: Quote Link to comment
BEEBANI Posted July 4, 2007 Author Report Share Posted July 4, 2007 Got the rear brakes on tonight, did a step by step for anybody interested. I haven't bled the front or rears yet, but with a few pumps it stops on a dime! I took it out on the road tonight and drug it for my brother. Man this thing is fast! Quote Link to comment
Pacific coast Datsun Posted July 4, 2007 Report Share Posted July 4, 2007 Nice! Are those the Isuzu rotors & calipers? Quote Link to comment
Icehouse Posted July 4, 2007 Report Share Posted July 4, 2007 Looking good dude :D I need some disk brakes on the back of my truck ;) Quote Link to comment
BEEBANI Posted July 4, 2007 Author Report Share Posted July 4, 2007 Yeah Mark they are, and with my/fineline's bracket they bolt right up. Quote Link to comment
tangent Posted July 4, 2007 Report Share Posted July 4, 2007 I notice you took the whole thing apart.. bearings and all did you require the hydrolic press the book says you need to press it back together?? Quote Link to comment
BEEBANI Posted July 4, 2007 Author Report Share Posted July 4, 2007 No, but it took the hydraulic press to get the bearing off of the shaft! Quote Link to comment
Icehouse Posted July 6, 2007 Report Share Posted July 6, 2007 Is it necessary to take the bearing out? Quote Link to comment
BEEBANI Posted July 6, 2007 Author Report Share Posted July 6, 2007 Yeah, unless you want to cut the dust cover around the bearing hub instead of just removing the studs and taking it off. Once I figured it out on one side, it only took me 30 minutes to take the other side apart and put it back together. Quote Link to comment

Pacific coast Datsun Posted July 10, 2007 Report Share Posted July 10, 2007 Nice..i kinda figured that! Did you have a 32/36 & L 16 mani. on the L ? If you still have it is it 4 sale? Quote Link to comment
BEEBANI Posted July 10, 2007 Author Report Share Posted July 10, 2007 Nice..i kinda figured that! Did you have a 32/36 & L 16 mani. on the L ? If you still have it is it 4 sale? Sorry Mark, the whole motor got sold on ebay and went to a guy in Minnesota who has a 521, NL320, and a 320. I think he has a couple other rigs but I don't remember. He looks on here from time to time. Quote Link to comment
Pacific coast Datsun Posted July 10, 2007 Report Share Posted July 10, 2007 Thanks jason. I have a 32/36 w/ tall adapter plate but it needs a rebuild. Do you think you could do a writeup / post pics on how you guys wired it all in? Im sure not every sensor & or wire gets hooked up..thats the stumbling point I had on my 521 KA swap i gave up on. I think Jeff did a writeup on his swap already so if you dont have time i understand..thanks :cool: Quote Link to comment
BEEBANI Posted July 10, 2007 Author Report Share Posted July 10, 2007 I'll see what I can do. Quote Link to comment
BEEBANI Posted July 25, 2007 Author Report Share Posted July 25, 2007 Got some more work done over the last few weeks; got the underhood wiring done and started gutting the interior for paint and cleanup. Sorry Jeff, you won't get to see the rat's nest I had before! Added a NAPA generic overflow tank to keep the juice in the radiator! Paint is still hangin on to the header! Dash is gone! What a mess! Just thought I'd give an update since some people think I've got all kinds of time on my hands!;) 1 Quote Link to comment
]2eDeYe Posted July 25, 2007 Report Share Posted July 25, 2007 That looks good under there. I definitely won't be able to use the 720 booster :P Quote Link to comment
BEEBANI Posted July 25, 2007 Author Report Share Posted July 25, 2007 2eDeYe;13534'']That looks good under there. I definitely won't be able to use the 720 booster :P How come? Shouldn't be a problem with the L motor. I just extended the 620 mounting bracket and it worked like a champ! Quote Link to comment
Pacific coast Datsun Posted July 25, 2007 Report Share Posted July 25, 2007 Looks real good Jason. Did you use all of the HB wiring harness or did you guys shorten any of the wires any & where is the ECU ? Good luck on the dash, i wanna see those pics ;) Quote Link to comment
datsunaholic Posted July 25, 2007 Report Share Posted July 25, 2007 How come? Shouldn't be a problem with the L motor. I just extended the 620 mounting bracket and it worked like a champ! But where would you put the intake manifold? The L-series is on the same side as the booster. Quote Link to comment
