I'm at the jy and there is an 84 truck w ball joint and disc front end.

 

What can I grab from this truck for my 73 620?!

 

Send me an email or text it ill check this before I leave the yard.

 

ThNks guys!!

there isn't anything that will bolt up directly.   If you were upgrading your brakes to discs with my kit, you could use the hubs/rotors/calipers/hose, but you don't need any of that with Beebani's or datsun-parts.llc's kits.  I'm working on a ball joint mod that would allow you to use the spindle to, but currently, for straight bolt on......you can't use any of it directly.

I'm aware nothing bolts up. More just part hunting. But I think I would rather buy those items new, these are pretty gross. Is there anything of value to grab that is hard to come by in the aftermarket?

[bananahamuck]

The banjo fitting and bolts are nice to have as spares if in good shape ,, but since like he said you don`t have that set-up they would probably just be extra stuff you have to play with in the future.. And not of any real use.

[ohmrchristopher]

Ok cool. Ill wait till I buy a kit.

 

What about 4x4 leafs off a 92 truck?

[mklotz70]

The hubs are about the only thing you can't buy new.   No clue on the leafs.

While i have everyones attention i am getting a terrible wobble when braking at high speeds. The steering wheel shimmys hard when the brakes are first applied and the faster i go the worse the shudder.

 

I have rotated rims front to back. (I doubt they've been balanced)

I have set my brakes

Ive lubed the adjuster

 

All steering parts are <1yr old

I have new springs for the shoes but have NOT installed them

I lubed the front end.

 

Confused?

It sounds like your drums (or rotors)  need to be turned at a machinist .. or your front wheel bearings aren`t tightened correctly..

[mklotz70]

Possibly.....but if it's the drums, you'll continue to feel a pulsing after they've engaged......but you said it's when they're first engaged.  I would think the bearings would be a more likely possibility.

 

My guess would be the front end alignment....most likely the toe adjustment is off.  The kingpin trucks don't have much caster at all......so if the back end is jacked up more than the front, you'll have almost no caster.
