sick620 Posted February 8, 2010 Report Share Posted February 8, 2010 There are so many ka ?'s on here and im sorry. I got a Ka24e out of a 240. My truck is a long bed and has the 2 piece driveline will this make for a problem with installation? I have read many threads on ka installation but I dont think I have on a long bed 620. Will i have to get the oil pan off of a hardbody to install the KA out of a 240sx? Thanks Quote Link to comment
datzenmike Posted February 8, 2010 Report Share Posted February 8, 2010 I don't see a problem. Just shorten the front of the drive shaft. The car oil pan is a front sump to allow the steering across the 240sx. The truck has steering and a cross brace at the front so a D-21 Hardbody pan is likely in order. The 240sx wiring is also better for swapping. Quote Link to comment

510love Posted February 9, 2010 Report Share Posted February 9, 2010 haven't read about one on a longbed....are you kidding? lol seems the length might pose a problem, measure twice and install once. lol i dont think you should run into problems.

sanitys Posted February 9, 2010 Report Share Posted February 9, 2010 the only difference between putting one into a long bed vs a short bed is the length of the driveshaft I would imagine. In anycase the driveshaft is gonna need modification anyways... Quote Link to comment
sick620 Posted February 10, 2010 Author Report Share Posted February 10, 2010 will i have to have a shop balance and cut it or is it possible to do it by myself? Quote Link to comment
SHADY280 Posted February 10, 2010 Report Share Posted February 10, 2010 have a shop do it. a driveline vibration will wear parts out as well as your caboose and teeth Quote Link to comment

The shop was recommended to me by like 8 people. I threw in an extra case, so it ended up costing me about 75 bucks to get mine shortened and balanced, oh they painted it as well.
