If the Ratsun brain trust will tell us if they will work for you, then there are deals to be made. Did you get your mirrors sorted? Quote Link to comment

Joecar Posted April 29 Author Report Share Posted April 29 Another odd question but has anyone tried wheel spacers on these trucks? I was thinking of getting a 1/2” spacer just so the wheels and tires sit flush with the fender flares and give it a wider stance Quote Link to comment

I was thinking of getting a 1/2” spacer just so the wheels and tires sit flush with the fender flares and give it a wider stance Wheel spacers will give the same "issues" as they do on any other vehicle. Increased suspension wear and increased wheel bearing wear. With a .5in spacer it probably won't hurt anything as long as you know your ball joints are good and wouldn't be really any worse than a wheel with a deeper offset. If the spacer is one of those ones that acts like a giant washer I would advise against it but one that just rotated the locations of the studs would be fine. Overall though I don't really see the point but I like the slightly tucked skinnier wheels. Quote Link to comment
datzenmike Posted April 29 Report Share Posted April 29 Better wait and get wider tires. You have 215/75R15 so 27.75" tall and 8.5" wide. To get 1/2" closer to the fender opening you need a 1" wider tire. A 260/65R15 is 9.8 " wide and 27.8" tall. Keeping the same height does not alter the speedometer or change the performance.

I changed the tires to 235/75r15 and they seem pretty good Quote Link to comment

Joecar Posted Tuesday at 02:06 AM Author Report Share Posted Tuesday at 02:06 AM Okay so I just got my truck back but I’m having issues with finding the correct air filter cleaner. Someone suggested I try this but doesn’t seem to work. I plan on having EFI back in this thing but I just need this to get around and mess around with it. It’s also on top of an adapter to work on the intake. Quote Link to comment

Find a smaller round style filter you like and two pieces of metal for a top and bottom plate and drill a hole for the carb? I don't know how that carb mounts a air cleaner but if you can put a stud on that would make it easier. 1 Quote Link to comment

Joecar Posted Tuesday at 10:30 PM Author Report Share Posted Tuesday at 10:30 PM I’m pretty sure this is some knockoff carb but I drove it on the highway 75 like nothing but I would like to address it and make sure it’s done correctly soon Quote Link to comment
datzenmike Posted Tuesday at 10:49 PM Report Share Posted Tuesday at 10:49 PM This is a Z24i or fuel injection intake with a carburetor on it? Quote Link to comment
