bananahamuck Posted May 24, 2016 Author Report Share Posted May 24, 2016 I gots pics but am to pissed off to go on photobucket and be abused by that stupid computer locking up sum-bitch. and now that my creamy sugar loaded coffee is now gone,,,,,,,,,,,, i shall go resume the swift kick to the balls this car has become in the last couple days. you're welcome 4 Quote Link to comment
q-tip Posted May 24, 2016 Report Share Posted May 24, 2016 Yeah sorry, I thought you knew.... Quote Link to comment
bananahamuck Posted May 26, 2016 Author Report Share Posted May 26, 2016 , photobucket makes me sad Made this to put bearings and collars on since my press is tits up at the moment. used this to balance axle on while i pounded the crap out of it. Wheel cylinders are 70 510 since they were about $100. less each than "roadster" ones And finally ran brand new brakelines ,,,,,,, not exactly sure where u-bolts will sit so lines aren't completely tight up against housing and as straight as i would like them just yet...................... Could they have thought up a more complicated frickin parking brake ,,,, Jesus tap dancing Christ!!?? and for the record fuck you photobucket ,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,, fuuuuuck you 4 Quote Link to comment
S30Jay Posted May 26, 2016 Report Share Posted May 26, 2016 Homemade tools are the best, nice idea! That is a strange parking brake, Datsun seemed to like bellcranks. SU linkage worked like that too. 2 Quote Link to comment

datsunfreak Posted May 26, 2016 Report Share Posted May 26, 2016 Wheel cylinders are 70 510 since they were about $100. less each than "roadster" ones Was looking at this on my Roadster. Looks like the only possible difference is the Roadster is SAE and the 510 is metric? 1 Quote Link to comment
bananahamuck Posted May 27, 2016 Author Report Share Posted May 27, 2016 Yep.... what really got me comparing was my friend Bill (and his kids) have many 411s and i thought he mentioned he was going to use them on the SSS he is getting back on the road for his grand daughter to drive to high school next year...... As much as i talk you would think i wasn't listening,,,,, but somehow info gets through that steady stream ..........................................once in a while. :rofl: :rofl: 3 Quote Link to comment

bananahamuck Posted June 8, 2016 Author Report Share Posted June 8, 2016 Tires are 215/60/13 in rear. cut the front 1 1/2 coils since nose was waaaaaaaaay up there and looked awkward as fuck.......... This is where it sits now ,,, not going any lower as i go up really bumpy gravel roads on a regular basis 8 Quote Link to comment

KoHeartsGPA Posted June 9, 2016 Report Share Posted June 9, 2016 I agree looks way better now.....I did same thing with my dime and that did the trick, damn how where you able to score 13s that wide? I have D slot 13s sitting because I can only get couple widths options and 185 is the widest :( 1 Quote Link to comment
bananahamuck Posted June 9, 2016 Author Report Share Posted June 9, 2016 These are Daytons i have had forever ,, but when they give up the ghost i am going to buy a pair of hard pavement treaded Hoosier racing tires that are the same size-ish. Hoosiers aren't cheap though,,, and they have a softer tread so they will wear out waaaaay faster. 1 Quote Link to comment
KoHeartsGPA Posted June 9, 2016 Report Share Posted June 9, 2016 Pics don't do justice, that datto is way better looking in person :thumbup: 1 Quote Link to comment
DaBlist Posted June 9, 2016 Report Share Posted June 9, 2016 Looking good, Nice job on the rear axle swap! Is there room for a wheel spacer on the rear to bring the rear tire out like the front? 2 Quote Link to comment

Is there room for a wheel spacer on the rear to bring the rear tire out like the front? Yeah but if i do move them outward i will have to roll the fenders and that steel is way thick and will probably crack the hell out of that cheap-ass paint they used... I have the lug bolts already but just didn't firure i needed to put them in yet. I am going to order some 1 or 1 1/8 inch spacers so i can run my taller winter tires without it looking so weird,,, like a roadster going down the road............................ 2 Quote Link to comment
