Brad Lustig Posted September 29, 2013 Report Share Posted September 29, 2013 It's been quite a while since I've been on the forum. My Dodge blew a rear bearing out several years ago and I let it sit for far too long. After a friend prodded me every time we saw each other to let him help I finally gave in. I brought it over to his house last week. Going to clean out and rebuild the carb since it's got to be a little gummy. I ran the engine several times a year. Just need to fix the rear axle and brakes to get back on the road. I'll go ahead and replace the shocks and do the front brakes again while I'm at it. The suppliers have changed quite a bit in the last 5 years so I'm sure I'll be doing quite a bit of research around here. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Brad Lustig Posted September 29, 2013 Author Report Share Posted September 29, 2013 Just noticed my sig has my Datsun in it still. I actually just sold it a few months ago due to shrinking garage space when we moved to our new house. It went to a buddy of mine so I'll get to see it around Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RobertKB Posted September 29, 2013 Report Share Posted September 29, 2013 Brad, glad you are back working on the D24 and back on the forum. Lots of new members but still quite a few old-timers. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brad Lustig Posted September 29, 2013 Author Report Share Posted September 29, 2013 I almost had a rapid fender removal when the bearing blew the rear axle out. Luckily a little hammer and dolly was all it needed to roll the lip back in. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
