mhub91 Posted September 27, 2014 Report Share Posted September 27, 2014 Just got a 620. Everyone knows me from the all-elusive A10 world, but I thought I'd get a 'real' datsun lol. Picked this up recently...Anyone know the history? '78, L20, 5 spd. short bed . 2 Quote Link to comment
mhub91 Posted September 29, 2014 Report Share Posted September 29, 2014 Putting her to work!!! I really hate to be that guy........ but what are you lowered with? Just torsion bars and blocks? What your wheel size and tire specs? I really like this look. Pretty sure I saw this parked somewhere and stared at it for a while! Quote Link to comment

Torsions in the front, rear is 3" blocks and 720 leafs plus 1/2 yard of gravel. :thumbup: 15x8 wheels 195/50/15 tires. Quote Link to comment

Did you notch the frame at all? Or do you just not mind bottoming out on frame? Lol. I just picked up some 15x8.5 and 720 springs as well. Do you have to use the 720 shackles? Or can I use the 620 ones? Quote Link to comment
RATX5 Posted October 5, 2014 Report Share Posted October 5, 2014 Got that shit all shined up. Need new fenders though. Holy shit, that is sick as fuck! What are those mirrors off of? They really complement the 620's body-lines nicely. 2 Quote Link to comment
mhub91 Posted October 5, 2014 Report Share Posted October 5, 2014 I agree! Those mirrors just... FIT! Quote Link to comment

I used the 620 shackles with the 720 bushings! Quote Link to comment

mhub91 Posted October 14, 2014 Report Share Posted October 14, 2014 I couldn't stand it anymore - i had to remove my fenderliners. shit was getting way too annoying, rubbing and all. any of you guys who are pretty low have issues with tire scrub up front? For fuck's sake, my front end loves to squeal around corners and when coming to a stop. Too much camber is what I'm thinking.... Quote Link to comment

MantisX620 Posted October 14, 2014 Report Share Posted October 14, 2014 No notch, front bottoms out but rear not at all. I used the 620 shackles with the 720 bushings! Did you have to do anything to the 720 bushings for the shackles? I know for the fronts, you can just drill them out and use the 620 front bolt. Quote Link to comment

I know for the fronts, you can just drill them out and use the 620 front bolt. The rears I used the 620 shackles and bushings if I remember right, did it years ago! The fronts I bought new 720 rubber bushings and drilled them out to fit the 620 bolt and metal spacer 1 Quote Link to comment
dleep25 Posted October 16, 2014 Report Share Posted October 16, 2014 Just scored my first 79 620 today. I feel like I robbed the guy. He was only asking 1200! 2 Quote Link to comment

mhub91 Posted October 23, 2014 Report Share Posted October 23, 2014 Just picked up a peanut W58 head for $30, and 2 L20b short blocks for free. I think a mild "for-fun" build is in the works........ Head has a few flaws. Missing cam journals. (Why would anyone ever even remove these...?) and 2 coolant passages appear to have heavy corrosion. ..and the P.O. tried to port intake ports. We'll see how that goes, though. One of two short blocks was good, minus the normal crack between 2 and 3 on the bolt hole. Is there a good way to repair this? Can a machine shop successfully weld it up and it be ok, or is it really a big deal and can I just reassemble the engine? The other block needs a rebuild. Parts of rod and piston are sitting in the pan :-O Quote Link to comment
