My new Project. A teeny tiny Nissan truck! The 4W73

Actually no! I set the angle of the steering to my personal preference. The entire assembly is that off a Tata Aria and it's tiltable.

First don't call me Sir!
Second, you are spot on! I have two gearboxes, one with PTO and one without!
You have a keen eye my friend!!
The gearbox without the PTO will be my spare!
Again, appreciate the keen interest!

Are you going to disassemble the whole vehicle for painting again or just leave it the way it is for now?

What about the other build, is that ready?

jyobeb · 1st July 2014, 01:17

I ideally would like to disassemble, paint everything and then re-assemble it. Lets see how it goes.

As for the other Willys wagon build, my people are busy with other builds and hence are told to work on only one of my vehicles at a time!

You are too far away in Madurai, recently on a trip to Mayapuri to buy some Canvas material for one of the Thars I saw a lot of parts available from some auction lot for this Nissan truck.

Yup! Really far away. If you come across anything really interesting please do let me know. If you have the time maybe you could help me ship it over!

I will help you for sure what do you need ?

To compensate for the weight of the Cummins 4BT I have installed helper springs and also increased the height of the shackles.

jyobeb · 22nd July 2014, 09:55

Some more mounting pics.
