Welcome to episode 5 of the D21 series! On this episode I tweak the suspension to give my new wheels enough clearance. I also install new shocks and a set of used fender extensions from a pathfinder. Don't forget to leave a like if you enjoyed, it helps me out a lot :)

How lifted is the truck

@alexmoran2460 Год назад

Any updates on your truck?

@369sharan 2 года назад

Brother, I've got a '96 hardboy running on a TD27 inherited from ma old man on which I am doing an full upgrade so I can pass it later to my lil one😁🤣 New cab, new wheels, under carriage works and so forth. Please can I have an email of yours so I can get in touch and you could give me a few pointers on how it would be wise to go on with it

@tunethetoy7225 2 года назад

Very Inspiring idea! You should post about it!

@BLKSTONE4WD 3 года назад

Awesome! Looks more off road ready with all the mods that you did. What type of paint did you use for the leaf springs and shackles?

@tunethetoy7225 3 года назад

Believe it or not that was how I got them off the junkyard, must be factory maybe?

@BLKSTONE4WD 3 года назад

@@tunethetoy7225 interesting, in the video they looked non painted. I was curious if you had resprayed the parts to touch them up or protect them from corrosion. I ask also because when I replaced my leaf springs I got them new instead of used, and now they are starting to rust in some spots. I think I will go the same route as you and pick up some leafs from another 4wd Hardbody or something similar, to do my own add a leaf spring kit. But when I do I will respray them all in order to preserve my big investment. When I first got my D21 the rear leafs on the passenger side snapped on me on the road.

@tunethetoy7225 3 года назад

@@BLKSTONE4WD It seems that a few rattle cans would be a good investment for ya! I am unfortunate enough to live in drought valley so rust is never a concern, however my driver's side leafs are a bit squeaky even though the teflon plates looked fine. Looking forward to your next upload!

@BLKSTONE4WD 3 года назад

@@tunethetoy7225 yeah definitely will have to rattle can em'! My rust issues have gotten a little worse through out the truck since where we live there is a little more moisture in the air. Thanks a lot bro I will deliver as promised on my YT page. When I upload the update video I will explain why I haven't uploaded and where the direction of the channel is going. I'll give you a small inside I just got my tags & registration finally from the DMV yesterday! So expect an upload sooner, I think you will like the video I have in store for all D21 & Pathfinder owners Let's just say it's a K&N upgrade (not a air filter)

@BLKSTONE4WD 3 года назад

@@tunethetoy7225 maybe a little bit of hi temp grease on those teflon plates might do the trick! Just a small thought.👍🏼

@otroflores91 3 года назад

How many miles on the new shocks? How do they feel. I'm replacing the shocks on my friends 97 hardbody. They ones on there look like factory.

@tunethetoy7225 3 года назад

I’ve driven on them about 3k miles, the truck has really still suspension now but the shocks do make the ride smoother

@juniorb5417 3 года назад

What were the original rim/tire size of the ones you took off in the beginning? Thanks man

@tunethetoy7225 3 года назад

205/65 R15 ☺️

@ChrsGuit 2 года назад

Spoiler alert... you didn't have to hack up those fender flares. The right thing to do would be to remove, re-index, and THEN crank up your front torsion bars to raise the front end. I gained 3 inches up front and paired it with slightly longer Rancho shocks... Sway Away torsion bars are a nice upgrade as well. Better spring rate. I'd have swapped on 4x4 fenders if you were going for a 4x4 look and left the flares alone (they'll clear). The beds are exactly the same on the 2 wheel drive and 4 wheel drive, so the only difference is the front Fenders... So you should have just gotten rear flares from a 4x4 pickup truck...

@tunethetoy7225 2 года назад

Okay, various points here, bare with me: 1. I did crank up the torsion bars, which I eventually reeled back a little since the ride was too stiff. Re-indexing is something I will look at 2. I found those fender flares for cheap at the local junk yard, they were in a Pathfinder hence the extra material on the ends. 3. The front flares were a bit problematic but I was on a budget and just wanted the truck to look more muscular. I dig your train of thought thought

@jogmas12 3 года назад

Is that a factory lift or aftermarket?

@tunethetoy7225 3 года назад

Neither, I had to add a leaf spring and tighten the torsion bars myself. Hard to find a good lift kit for 2wd D21s sadly :(

@gosteve1 2 года назад

Do you remember the exact leaf springs you purchased? I'm looking for 1" lifted leaf springs for a 97 2wd but like you said they are difficult to find.
