A little Truck Envy going on here. :thumbup:

 

:D

 

 

Man you thought the slave was messed up when I showed up and you figured out it wasn't the slave. Are you sure this time?

 

The master was f'd from making the pushrod too long, this was from cobbling parts together to get home form Jeffs 

 

The slave was probably f'd for the same reason. :lol:

 

 

Now that the pushrod is the correct length a new slave should fix things right up.

I was lucky enough to meet ]2eDeYe today, and this sweetie of a truck...I knew it was special, but had no clue how much work had gone into it.

 

for anyone that has not seen this truck in person, I'm sorry, it's amazing.

Thanks for the help, was nice to meet you as well. Can't wait to see what you do with that motorhome :cool:

Turns out the hard line sprung a leak. Replaced that, now the entire clutch system is new and works like it should. 

 

Some pics from the last week or two. :)

 

 

 

 

 

 

Working on a new fence at the boys house.

Me and the dawg had a great day out on Sat. We went to Jrocks place for a Datsun BBQ. Sun was shining and the 620 was running tip top. :)

 

More pics from me and video from Bleach at the link.

Dump run became a photo-op :lol:

 

 

 

 

 

[Donedreamin]

Very cool build, lots of useful information here. Thanks for sharing! I got to ask, do a lot of people spark up conversations with you around town about your trucks?

[]2eDeYe]

From time to time they do. Lot's of thumbs up in all my Datsuns :) 

[Charlie69]

This is a fine little truck. I hope to see both your trucks in person.

[KoHeartsGPA]

Steve, how much drop do you have in the rear? What size tire on those rims?

I have a 3" block in the rear with stock springs. In that last set of pics  the axle is just about touching the frame.

There is a light roll on all the top fender lips.

I need to bring m th truck down there, I may be lower if you're on stock springs

[]2eDeYe]

Guess it depends on if I have a dump run ready or not. :rofl: 

[KoHeartsGPA]

Thanks for the info Steve, I've got 3" blocks on stock springs too.

[hobospyder]

I think we settled on mine is lower in the rear, his is lower in the front and I know a picture was taken, just not by me.

I woulda took more but got distracted by your wrong side driver. :lol:

 

 

 

 

!/2" to the frame in front, 3" blocks in the rear on mine. 

 

Hobos has 2" blocks and 720 4x4 leafs if I'm not mistaken.

[hobospyder]

Chester said they were 3 inch blocks. I'll measure them tonight

[]2eDeYe]

They are 3" blocks in case anyone is keeping track. :lol: 

 

 

Ended up driving this one to Canby this year. Did awesome, but I think it is time for a full exhaust system.  :rofl: 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

More Canby pics here:

Steve: What are your thoughts on the full exhaust? And will you run your exhaust over the crossmember? Perhaps through a notch?

[]2eDeYe]

It's going over the crossmember. My plan is to ubolt a tube to the crossmember and attach these at either end. Then route the rest of the exhaust along the stock path, tucking high above the axle. 

 

 

Thankfully it's not too bad just running around town so it's not real high on the priority list.  :)

[Charlie69]

Hey Redeye who is the pretty blonde making your 620 look even better?

[]2eDeYe]

That's my Irish girl, Canby is our annual thing :) 

[]2eDeYe]

So I've just been driving this thing and enjoying the heck out of it. 

 

Spent a day doing storage unit things and picking up more crap to fill up my garage. lol

 

Started off seeing if we could get fire up the Stout I've had stored in there since pulling red out for the KA swap. This thing pretty much fired no problem and ran on the gas in the tank. ?

 

 

 

 

 

 

The headed to Icehouses place to pick up more junk

Datsun and CJ haha 

 

 

 

 

 

All home...

 

...and other days out for whatever reason. :)

 

 

 

 

 

 

[KELMO]

Don't ever stop posting pics of this thing!

 

 

That Stout is so ugly I now think I need one.
