Amerikilla Posted September 9, 2013 Author Report Share Posted September 9, 2013 Do you mind letting me know how tall your truck is front to back? I just bought an NL and it measures 26in at the front fender and 24in in the back. I'm wondering if someone before me lowered it already. I can measure it today. I have lowered it a lot. It used to be a lot lower but now its just a tad taller. Quote Link to comment

Steve521 Posted September 18, 2013 Report Share Posted September 18, 2013 I love this truck! So awesome to see these beauties on the road! Man, after seeing several 320s on here, I want one now. I never realized how much I really love 320s and 520s until I got here...lol! I'm super excited about my 521 but also getting pretty intrigued by the NL320 and early 520s. Too bad I'm not made of money. :crying: Quote Link to comment

Amerikilla Posted March 6, 2014 Author Report Share Posted March 6, 2014 I need to rebuild the motor this spring. One rotor came apart on the way home from breakfast. lol Quote Link to comment
Amerikilla Posted July 10, 2015 Author Report Share Posted July 10, 2015 So it has been quite a while since I last posted. Since my last post I have rebuilt the engine, swapped to a 4.38:1 rear differential from a 620, and did a blow-through turbo setup. The truck makes A LOT of power and brakes are my current concern. The factory drums are not up to snuff with the speeds this thing is capable of at this point. Quote Link to comment
