There could be a multitude of various issues going on. What’s your diagnosis of it being a defective valve. Need some more in depth details.

Are you checking with the local Nissan parts guy so he can check the US & Canada?

Best bet is to remove the other drum and compare left to right. If you have to remove the shoes for any reason you have something to compare to. Back in the day they used to say on drum brakes “Do one side at a time”.

Thanks…

Does this fit the raised deck models for the 78?

Great on lowering the gas tank, rear diff as well. Third hand as we lay on the ground!!

Now I am wondering if there is a template out there. I just want to ghost darker stripes below the clear coat.

Hey Rob, We’re those stripes just on the left hand side?

Good choice going with Jet Hot Coatings. The reviews and feed back are amazing.

Or a smaller version would be a dremel with the cut off wheel and pliers!

Yes S30.World

What’s the Nissan p/n I might have one.

All comes down to how much they charge to fix a 40plus year old tank versus buying a new one.

You also have to disengage the neutral safety switch by jumpering it at the harness. Right next to the backup light harness.

@Dave WM suggested at the time of my reseals. Works great.

Stays flexible. Working great for my rebuild casings.

There is a trick to removing the tail shaft as well.

All of the seals were still available through Nissan. There is a complete parts list posted by @EuroDat on the forum. With @dave wm help he guided me through resealing two close ratio transmissions. Be sure to change all of the seals including the ones in the shifter housing. I have a small amount of parts not many including the main shaft nut I didn’t need. Also the detent springs and ball bearings are still available as well as the speedo seal. Check out @EuroDat. A plethora of information there. I just took a torch to my shifter and put a small curvature in it to clear 5th gear.

Outside on Mama’s coffee table!! Looks like a nice muffler. What’s your experience with Borla?

That’s a Doozy right there. It’s cracked to the core!!

Consume more Beer!! 🍻

Wake up Cliff! Where are you friend?

I think it’s a 1975 280z head on a later block, Pretty sure about the head. @SteveJ
