for rear shocks i was thinking Fox Shocks 14" Travel Pro Series 2.0 with deafer 62" f55 leafs
havnt looked at bilstien yet but if i do anything other than the fox shocks listed above id go with some comparable to them.

and yes i will post a video as soon as it fires!
heres a list of what i got to do to get running and I'm not sure exactly how I'm going to go about it

-external fuel pump wired up with a regulator
-the throttle cable ..(if i don't figure it out tomorrow ill post detailed pics on how its routed so maybe i could get some help on the best way to do it
-maybe the msd ignition but i think i can hook it up i got the diagram

I want to see some more pics of your front suspension

SCToy

Also, what radiator is that?

blakefogt

that engine is sexy..

can't wait to hear it.

the suspension is also intriguing

green97nissan

heres a picture ill get better ones tomorrow when i go work on the truck

green97nissan

its from shepherdsautoparts.com ...100 bucks and its seems great from the looks ..i was referred by another guy from a nissan site i go to and he says his works perfect

yoterr

You should check out truxx shocks..their comparable to kings but cheaper...still outta my price range tho lol

green97nissan

ok well i didn't get ANYTHING done today! had to do PT ..anyways
heres a few pics of the carb set up u can see in one of the pic i have my finger on the lever that controls both carbs well it has to be pulled down ...so I'm not sure how to do it the best/right way ...i don't want to rig it ya know i want a good fix for it so any help is greatly appreciated

and i also loaded some pics of the suspension ..hopefully i get out early tomorrow and get something done on it idk..
y'all think i should hook power steering up? I'm strong enough to turn it ..its not like I'm rock crawling...high speed thru the desert is what I'm doing

yoterr

Id run power steering..I ran without for bout 3 months...and it sucked bad...with 35's the steering wheel will get ripped out of ur hand..no bueno..even now it sucks not having steering stabilizer

green97nissan

yea i will hook up power steering..
still not having any luck with finding info on hooking up throttle or fuel lines ..but it also doesn't help that i haunt been able to work on the truck all week

yoterr

heres what i came up with http://www.hachiroku.net/forums///sh...d.php?p=269252 looks like your missing a small peice? or some hand fabbed stuff there but gives you an idea...

green97nissan

that gives me some ideas...u think i can move the two aluminum pieces i have my throttle cable hooked to in my picture more towards the firewall and get a longer throttle cable...i will go visit my truck tomorrow with a bag full of oil and a mind full of ideas so ill let ya know how it goes!

thanks for the respond man!

yoterr

is that linkage where the throttle connects to removeable?? can you just twist it 180 and have the cable pull up? doesnt look like theres much room for that tho..

green97nissan

yea i looked at it today ...im going to have to have a bracket made and longer throttle cable to pull it from the bottom in between the two carbs,

it won't be started this weekend ...i have to order some AN fittings a fuel regulator and maybe a lower psi fuel pump..but I'm going to meet up with the guy doing my exhaust tomorrow, he's very knowledgeable about motors and all that and he's gonna show me some ideas and he will possibly fab me a bracket for my throttle when he does my exhaust

so not much "work" done on my truck just more spent money and a better game plan this weekend...but oh well I'm learning the hard way so after this install maybe i can help others out!

green97nissan

got my fuel line parts ordered. regulator, gauge, filter, fitting
then thought about it after i ordered it damn i shoulda got the universal throttle cable from jegs also! 36" but idk how long stock is ...so i guess ima pull mine off tomorrow and measure....unless anyone knows for sure and i can order 1st thing in the morning?

green97nissan

got it to crank..not "running" yet but shot flames out the exhaust
but as soon as all my fuel lines and fuel fittings show up this weekend it should be running

green97nissan

hey hey hey ...
got it running..the timing was all messed up . at TDC the distributor was at cylinder #3 so we fixed that and fired right up!!
so its off to the exhaust shop the 20th, and I'm going to find a good tune shop to get it tuned for me. idk how to sync dual webers so I'm going to leave that to the pros.

heres some fun pics i took just because the valve cover was off ....mhm purple fluids
