Kirden Posted April 25, 2015 Report Share Posted April 25, 2015 Wait... You PNW guys have all the resources... Screw both of them and come help me DF. I'll make you a hello kitty cake and you can drool over the 4dr. :angel: Back on topic though, that diff does look really low. Is that where the stock solid axle sits? I've never been under a 510 to see the difference, but pretty sure my B210s (both stock height) are no where near that far from the body. EDIT: I'm also much closer DF... Just saying :ninja: 1 Quote Link to comment

I've never been under a 510 to see the difference, but pretty sure my B210s (both stock height) are no where near that far from the body. I think that's just IRS versus live axle. At stock height most live axle cars are that far away. On an IRS car, the diff doesn't move when you lower like a live axle car does. When I first finished my 1200 IRS swap I thought the same thing, "wow that diff is low". But after comparing it to a 510, it is within 1/4". Quote Link to comment
datsunfreak Posted April 25, 2015 Report Share Posted April 25, 2015 Oh, and I've never been to Georgia before... ^_^ Quote Link to comment
Kirden Posted April 25, 2015 Report Share Posted April 25, 2015 Ah, nice to know. The IRS swap still scares the :poop: out of me so good on anyone who can work it out. Looking forward to seeing all of the progress and seeing how you fix the alignment issue. You're a brave soul imo Quote Link to comment
INDY510 Posted April 25, 2015 Report Share Posted April 25, 2015 I have a feeling the OP's car didn't get the frame rails cut enough, or at all ... Do you guys with IRS swaps have modified drive-shaft tunnels? or does the back seat cross-brace fit without cutting? Quote Link to comment
jrock4224 Posted April 27, 2015 Report Share Posted April 27, 2015 u have to remember that the sedan floor is much lower then a wagon rear pan too .. and yes i cit te fuck out of my frame to get the wish bone in and the full droop i want in my irs.... my moustache mount is about the same .... as wit most irs wagons ... here u can see i cut the double metal out to put the factory ront mounts up in the pocket as it is in a sedan...... fits perfect ..... and locates the irs perfectly...and u can see how much rail i cut out to fit the wish bone in 1 Quote Link to comment

DatsunSwag22 Posted May 18, 2015 Author Report Share Posted May 18, 2015 damn that looks like alot of work!!! i want to bag it but don't know anything about them or how to go about it .. yeah they sit stagnant and i buy other things and start threads for that and they dont get work either ...got my fresh crf450r motor back last week with new cams valves and fresh sleeve and piston ... and havent even put that back together yet ... feeling overwhelmed Quote Link to comment
DatsunSwag22 Posted May 18, 2015 Author Report Share Posted May 18, 2015 ya i need to get the rear in higher so it can level out better. but I'm looking into making coil overs or bagging it. Coil overs fersure!!! But I'd make sure that you're ride height doesn't create lots of half shaft angularity otherwise you'll then have vibration from the universals transmitting through the car. Try and get those half shafts as parallel to the ground as you can. Quote Link to comment
DatsunSwag22 Posted May 18, 2015 Author Report Share Posted May 18, 2015 I'm working on bring it up. I don't get why the diff is mounted so low.Extreme axle angle. Quote Link to comment
DatsunSwag22 Posted May 18, 2015 Author Report Share Posted May 18, 2015 sometimes u just got to go for it.. i have a lot of work still but i can't wait to finish it.. Ah, nice to know.

DatsunSwag22 Posted May 18, 2015 Author Report Share Posted May 18, 2015 i didn't cut my tunnel. but some guys cut it to go lower. I have a feeling the OP's car didn't get the frame rails cut enough, or at all ... Do you guys with IRS swaps have modified drive-shaft tunnels? or does the back seat cross-brace fit without cutting?

jrock4224 Posted May 18, 2015 Report Share Posted May 18, 2015 with irs u dont need to cut the tunnel ... the driveline sits at a static level unlike a live axle .... u are limitied to the amount of low u can achieve... the irs in my car is about as high as it needs to be to be low as shit and not modify a billion and one things 2 Quote Link to comment

I've know Dave since `74 and your 510 looks like his. I'm originally from Whittier, Telegraph and Ceres ave. 1 Quote Link to comment
