Mexs Garage Posted January 22, 2010 Report Share Posted January 22, 2010 Hi all, Just wondering if anyone is running hardbody drop spindels in there 620? Or are they are waste of cash. Cheers Quote Link to comment
playsnmud Posted January 23, 2010 Report Share Posted January 23, 2010 I am running hardbody drop spindles, and I love them they save money in the long run compare to tires Quote Link to comment
johny5 Posted March 17, 2010 Report Share Posted March 17, 2010 Ok bringing this back up , this is what im looking for for drop spindles are these what I need and is there a cheaper source http://www.jegs.com/i/Bell-Tech/146/2005/10002/-1?parentProductId=1047987 I have 620 suspension on my 521 :blink: Quote Link to comment
Pacific coast Datsun Posted March 17, 2010 Report Share Posted March 17, 2010 We need to clarify if the HB drop spindles fit the later 620's with the ball joint front end & or the kingpin front end. If so yes those spindles are what you want. Im running Bell tech's on my 94 HB. Installed new tie rod ends at the same time, oh & plan on getting a front end allignment the same day.

Pacific coast Datsun Posted March 17, 2010 Report Share Posted March 17, 2010 and as for the tie rod ends , are they the same , I just bought new 620 tie rod ends ?? That i dont know sorry. Quote Link to comment
]2eDeYe Posted March 17, 2010 Report Share Posted March 17, 2010 Pretty sure they are the same tie-rod end size and taper. I can double check tonight. Quote Link to comment
johny5 Posted March 17, 2010 Report Share Posted March 17, 2010 just to confirm , can i use my new 620 brakes on the hard body spindles ? Quote Link to comment
]2eDeYe Posted March 17, 2010 Report Share Posted March 17, 2010 Nope the 620 and early 720 brakes won't work. They are also a pretty crappy design compared to the late 720/hardbody stuff. Quote Link to comment
Bleach Posted March 17, 2010 Report Share Posted March 17, 2010 So along with the Hardbody spindles, you're set to upgrade and install Hardbody hubs and calipers. :) Quote Link to comment
matwood Posted March 17, 2010 Report Share Posted March 17, 2010 OR late model 720 stuff, correct? I think I am going to use a set of these, machined to accept ~92-94 2wd toyota pickup hubs, calipers, and rotors. I've got a set of Beebani's UCA's on the way... As for the rear, I'm planning on a toyota 2wd rearend. 5 lug swap full discs and with 3.73 gears.. :) mmm can't wait to get all the parts together. 90's Toyotas are hard to come by around these parts. haha Quote Link to comment
matwood Posted March 17, 2010 Report Share Posted March 17, 2010 cheaper source... probably cheaper product.... http://wheelsnparts....products_id/755 A little more, but Belltech spindles... http://www.stillen.com/product.asp?id=BTSPINDLES&c=SU&b=Belltech&year=1986&make=NISSAN&model=PICKUP $235 with free UPS Ground shipping..

Farmer Posted March 18, 2010 Report Share Posted March 18, 2010 For mine, I just picked a year ('90) and got everything for it. Looks like I lost my pictures in my build link under in my signature. Larry Quote Link to comment
