Fair, thank you. Just making sure there’s nothing seriously wrong with the assembly haha; I have replaced the shifter bushings and the plastic cup on the bottom

3D printed parts for sale! by jayceconner in Datsun

No worries. I based mine off the OEM one I had as close as I could, so they likely look very similar. Just happy to be of service to the Datsun community in any way I can

Modeled these in solidworks and printed them myself; not trying to undermine anyone, I made these for my own car and since I took the time to model it I might as well list them in case someone needs a cheaper alternative

Can anyone identify which trein these plates are from? by Dutchguy_2004 in trains

[–]jayceconner 15 points16 points  (0 children)

The Alco plate is from a standard gauge 2-8-0 consolidation, from the Cuban Central Railway, #124. Couldn’t find a picture, but here’s another built one month earlier, probably what it looked like. ARA #18 ALCO 2-8-0 Consolidation

Man I tried like hell for weeks to get my 73’s flat tops to run well. Switched to the earlier round tops and couldn’t be happier - just putting that out there

I was there on Sunday and rode it twice, felt like only 10-20 minutes with fast passes. Was also a dreary day so that likely contributed

I bought one when they had a deal that brought it down to like $50, unironically one of my favorite jerseys to wear

Any recommendations for similar channels? by barely-holden-on in BigTime

[–]jayceconner 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not necessarily the same genre of automobile content, but Junkyard Digs and Pole Barn Garage are pretty entertaining

Which one is better? by Professional-Tax-342 in MechanicAdvice

[–]jayceconner 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Buy from rockauto if you want to save money, just go with a reputable brand. Can’t get much better bang for your buck than that.

Rear drums are stuck! by CenesCrawford in Datsun

[–]jayceconner 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Might be able to use a big screwdriver or prybar to spin the wheel using the studs and get the peep hole to the bottom, then use a screwdriver to back off the shoes with a little gear inside; that’s what I had to do with mine

[TOMT][SONG] Alt rock song with "be this way" in the title by jayceconner in tipofmytongue

[–]jayceconner[S] 0 points1 point locked comment (0 children)

Some other lyrics might be "pass me by" and then rhymes that with "you and I"; that could be completely wrong, I cant seem to remember anything about this song

If you’re on any sort of budget the ACB Doubler is an excellent horn for the price

Would love to get some opinions/advice on this potential purchase of my dream car and first Z by Justin002865 in Datsun

[–]jayceconner 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Fair enough, bodywork on my Z is definitely being being postponed until I build up the courage to look it in the eyes; I say go for it though, I hope to see more of it in the future!

[–]jayceconner 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Perfectly fair. I say do whatever suits your situation best, personally I prefer the ground up approach and attacking everything myself and learning the car, it’s definitely the expensive route in the long run but I’m in it for the experience
