Good job on the tool to push the bushing in, now that it IS FIXED(<<<proper attitude), you can start driving it and fix the small stuff you mentioned, I seen a BIG hole near the tailshaft/shifter on one of your videos, I would fix that first. :lol:

Really happy bananahamuck helped. It was all him and his son that made the tool. I had no way of making anything.
But yes your right, it is fixed! Just need to drive that bitch.
Oh and the hole is where a metal plate goes. That covers that big ass hole. That and some rubber around the shifter.

Dude... Andrew (banana) is fucking hilarious to hang around.

Guy is so helpful and smart. He's done things for me in the past just to be nice. Hell of a guy, and someone I really like calling a friend.. Sure there are jabs and shit made at this site by him. but it's all in fun. I still go on ratsun, mostly just to talk to him.

Looks like you're broken down on the side of the road.

Nope. Stopped to take a picture down a cool road.














Driving went great today!!! Even without a fan... I did go pick one up and put it on.

I have to agree with Flatcat, it looks like your broke down because the hood is up.
Great to have your Datsun running isn't it, and the LZ is awesome isn't it. :)

So how do you feel that LZ compares to the L20B you were running?

I know that L20B was hot as hell. And I know the LZ can be pretty mean.

Going from a hopped-up 20 to a fairly stock LZ, they've gotta be kinda close in power and feel.

Not way more power but a very nice noticeable boost. Lots of torque! In every gear really. Ha with no real exhaust it's throaty as shit! Deep and beastly.
If someone were to drive my truck knowing how a l20b is they'd forsure know it's NOT!


So flatcat no its not really close to the same feeling as Rons l20b. It's.... A beast!! Haha
It's great to have my truck back! But I fucked up today backing into my garage. Got scared by Lexi opening the garage door unexpectedly and tapped the pathfinder a little more then I would have liked to in the front driver side finder. Kinda right after headlight. I'll fix it!
Funny thing is when I parked the pathfinder today I parked it further forward then it was when I had hit it but when I stopped Lexi said I didn't need to be this far forward... I said eh whatever and backed up a few feet... Lexi! . Haha
Shit happens and I'm just glad that i can fix that shit! AND WILL.
Any who the truck is a sweet!
