]2eDeYe Posted October 28, 2013 Author Report Share Posted October 28, 2013 It's not so bad without the bump stop. I drove it around without one for a while. Quote Link to comment
jrock4224 Posted October 29, 2013 Report Share Posted October 29, 2013 the control arm bottoms out on the frame gusset before the snubber monts come together so theres no real bang but a very stiff landing on that....... I just opened the arc of the gusset up more when I removed everything basically just extended it to the frame rail where it used to stop about 1.5 inchs down 2 Quote Link to comment
]2eDeYe Posted November 25, 2013 Author Report Share Posted November 25, 2013 I've been daily driving this for a little bit now and have a report on the gearing. I can do 10mph in 2ndd up to 60mph. Easily runs around town in 3rd instead of 4th gear and the freeway is a dream in 5th, which actually behaves like an overdrive gear now. So 3:54 with the matched transmission is a great setup behind the KA. :) A couple pics I took over the weekend. 1 Quote Link to comment
Farmer Joe Posted November 25, 2013 Report Share Posted November 25, 2013 so 3.54 is the way to go eh? i think ill still with the 3.70s and get a steeper overdrive gear! Quote Link to comment

]2eDeYe Posted November 26, 2013 Author Report Share Posted November 26, 2013 so 3.54 is the way to go eh? i think ill still with the 3.70s and get a steeper overdrive gear! It might be different with a different transmission, I took both from the same truck and both were listed on the tag under the hood. right on thats great to hear. what did those 3.54's come out of.? and of course always love picks of your trucks, looking good.!! 1983 720 Kingcab, sameish as my truck, but newer. :) I like taking them :lol: Thanks 2 Quote Link to comment
]2eDeYe Posted November 26, 2013 Author Report Share Posted November 26, 2013 Just realized I typed 3rd gear...it's not, it is 2nd gear 10-60mph. I edited my post to show the correct gear. :) Quote Link to comment
Farmer Joe Posted November 26, 2013 Report Share Posted November 26, 2013 ahh, makes more sense now... lol, i about shit when i found i could get to 55 in 3rd.. fernando and me were on the freeway testing the trucks before canby, and he can drop from 5th to 3rd doin 70, and he still has like another 1500rpms of revs left in 3rd. always pulls on me.. 1 Quote Link to comment

Jester Posted July 22, 2014 Report Share Posted July 22, 2014 Are you planning on building a skid plate? 2 Quote Link to comment
]2eDeYe Posted July 22, 2014 Author Report Share Posted July 22, 2014 Nope, I plan on not setting the truck down on a jack stand ever again. :lol: Before I lowered it the jack stand fit under the truck no problem, after lowering it, not so much. Should be applying a coat of POR15 today after work if all goes well. 1 Quote Link to comment

carl Posted August 31, 2014 Report Share Posted August 31, 2014 Are you use the speedometer in the 620 with the 240 transmission? If so how do you connect the cable to the transmission? 1 Quote Link to comment
]2eDeYe Posted August 31, 2014 Author Report Share Posted August 31, 2014 I am using a 720 transmission, but the early 240sx trans uses the same speedo output. 1 Quote Link to comment
Eric Garside Posted September 11, 2014 Report Share Posted September 11, 2014 2eDeYe" post="619926" timestamp="1327551086"] Thanks. You got a welder now? I ran new high pressure rubber lines to the stock steel line. You might want to head to the local junkyard and get some of the clamps off a maxima or something, the ones they sell at the parts stores aren't as good. The shiny one is factory Nissan and the black one is from shmucks/oreally? I put an inline pump near the tank, with a filter between it and the tank. I also have a filter at the intake. I can get a pic when I start working back there. What size rubber fuel line did you use? How did you overcome the size difference between the 240 lines and the 620 lines? 1 Quote Link to comment
]2eDeYe Posted September 11, 2014 Author Report Share Posted September 11, 2014 I think I split the difference. I will have to check the size. 1 Quote Link to comment

How did you overcome the size difference between the 240 lines and the 620 lines? I used 5/16 fuel injection specific fuel line. It clamps up well to the 620 stuff if you use the Nissan clamps. 1 Quote Link to comment
