I come back to this video every now and then as a quick refresher and it really is one of the better reindexing vids on UA-cam! I'm doing a very mild lower on my 620 this weekend, just 2", and I might not bother with a reindex. That being said, since I have the old kingpin style front in, I have to add shims to the upper shackle because lowering add so much positive camber that it looks like a wobbly clown car when staring at it from the front......
If I only adjust the torsion bars followed it a small amount will I have to do this? I have 3” blocks in the back with nitro drop shocks and I just want the front to match
My gf ripped the parking brake hinge and cable on that crossmember right behind it. I cant find a replacement. Help. All the used ones i find are way too long84 king cab
Really great job explaining it so that we can understand it thank you , Sure hope the sharpie doesn't wear off , Maybe I can just slightly hit it with a dremmel Make sure the marks don't go away , Thank you take care
The guy I recently bought the Pathfinder from, slammed it to the stops.. that's what I'm fixing right now. Lol the kid put in like 80lbs of wiring for 4 underglow lights, and 2 amps 🤣 I literally removed all of it, set the light wires and amp wires in 2 piles, made 2 new piles of all that was needed (from his wires) and sent him a pic saying "this is everything u n ur bros installed for lights n sound. The small pile of wire, next to the one full of rca adapters, is going to be CUT to length" lmao then I sent him a video of everything working (untucked, with slack 😂). Kid put spacers on the hubs, titan tires (still has the big ass off road tire on the carrier), a weird horn lol.. I respect the kid for having fun with his ol' toy... But IMO, I just bought a K'NEX kit from a Lego guy 🥳🤣. I didn't haggle him at all. Bought if for what he asked... I did ridiculous things to my hb when I was young too lol.
We need a video on how to do the rhd swap already I’m literally doing the same thing at the moment just need a little guidance on the steering cross bar I have one I kind wobbled the holes to fit but am looking for a real solution
Super useful. I was planning on doing this to mine when I drop it. Wasn't sure on the process. Just waiting to order some damn tires for my new wheels then I'm dropping it.
Bro this video taught me a lot. Thank you.

Yoo you just saved me some money. I got to bend back my torsion anchors. I was able to do one side but the other still kinda bent.
Hell yeah that’s what it’s all about !
Grab the upside-down c ring with channel locks to spin it lol didn't have to reach way over the cross member n stuff. Good video though dood! Thanks!
Dude thank you for making all these videos. No one gives love to the 720 and info is hard to find. Definitely an MVP. 😮💨🤌🏻
Thank you I appreciate that
So to lower a truck, you do the opposite? Menaning driver side clockwise and passenger counterclockwise (re index the bars) thanks

Yes you can lower it as little or as much as you want
Hey!! Ya can't park there!! 😂
Similar process for a Toyota pickup ?
Yes very similar for older Toyota’s. Some came with coil springs which is a completely different setup
Hey SBG, i just picked up my first 720 and im in need of some parts. Any tips on where would be a good place to look??

I needed this for my 720❤
Hope the video help’s
Working in my 95 pathy and my 92 hb suspension. This guy's old Nissan looks dope!

your dad is definitely a cool dude! I miss my old 84 720.
My snap rings weren’t big enough to get the snap ring off mine your channel is super helpful
Bro great video. Very informative
Super useful. I was planning on doing this to mine when I drop it. Wasn't sure on the process. Just waiting to order some damn tires for my new wheels then I'm dropping it.
Hell yeah I’m glad you found it useful !
Do you turn both passenger and driver torsion bars clockwise?
No, they are opposite from each other
thank you
Was there a trick to getting the snap rings back into place? Did you just tap them into place with the opening facing upwards?
I just tapped them with a hammer and clicked right on
Is it the same process on the d21s?
Yes
👍🏻💪🏻
Can reindexing stiffen the ride?
Unfortunately no, the stiffness is controlled by the diameter of the torsion bar itself.
But technically reindexing can at least get someone your preload is so it's not quite as sloppy
