In my defense.. I didn't know it was touching it. It was a full can I had set down between the hump and the seat for another day. Apparently kids drank it and tossed it back in there. It had made its way over and was touching it. vibrating at certain speeds/rpms Hahaha.

Well glad it was that.

Oh man.. that's funny stuff. Yet, awesome.

Right! I know it has a very slight whine to it. And with only 148k it shouldn't have been making any bad noises. Especially with the maintenance dudes done on it. Ah well. on the cool side I got some goodies last night.


A roll bar has showed up after a month or two wait Kipp finally came thru town and dropped it off. Along with two tow packages that came with the deal. One looks like it was for a jeep. The other one was on an 81 720 4x4. I think in 83 the frames changed? I know they did at one point. Anyways... I will mock it up and see what I got. I really hope I can make a tow bar fit on this. I want to be able to swoop on a trailer... Maybe a tent trailer or something. Or just a regular one to haul the quad. Either haul the quad in the truck and tow a little tent trailer... Or pull the roll bar off, throw a canopy on and tow the quad... sleep in the truck. I have two canopies to choose from now.


Pictures later.

I will drill holes. Bolt it down. then install a toggle switch with relay for the lights. I want to take the PIAA lights off the 210 and put them on this.. Then these lights on the 210... My piaa lights are expensive as fuck.

Wow, a Nissan 720 roll bar, great find.

[izzo]

Thanks man!

I also got a tow package. will show pics soon. gotta measure n see if it will fit. or what I gotta do to make it fit. should be pretty much set. Got a spare tow package. i think its off a jeep or something gonna measure it and sell it. lol

[izzo]

been busy with shit haven't had time to really get the tow package figured out.

Truck started dying at random.. usually when coming to a stop or revving it and letting off... noticed idle was a bit high. Just by about 600rpm..

I had a feeling i knew what it was. sure as shit! Rubber nipple cracked in half. It was brand new, but the 210 has been doing it lately too. Cheap ass shit from autozone

Replaced and good as new. Tomorrow might be the day I measure the tow package. IDK yet.. I want to get hardware and install the roll bar first. and get it wired into a toggle and relay switch. lights work! I'm excited.

When you go to sell that truck, you should sell me that roll bar..

Currently rocking one bolt per end. Need to get more bolts. Need to wire it in still.

So awesome you found an OEM rollbar. Looks good!

[izzo]

right!

I was hunting CL for a tow package. Came across one for like 100 bucks for the roll bar and 50 bucks for the tow package... Said meh.. to much.. So anyways, time passed. Random text from dude... make offer i want it gone.. I'm surprised it didn't sell. 40 bucks!

Kip went and picked it up for me. and wouldn't take a payment. so it was free.

[draker]
