nissan a1500 conversion problems(help please)
nissan a1500 conversion problems(help please)
its an 86 zook and its got an a1500 nissan motor and a nissan auto in it i brought it like so. the drive shaft to the transfer is real short almost uni to uni and its making a huge vibration, has anyone done such a conversion and can help me or steer me to someone who can help correct this problem please??
my email is chadwik@bigpond.net.au

i havent done that exactly but do have 4k corolla and auto ,my shaft consists of a single uni.the internal cap size of toyota and zook are the same so its flange to flange and one uni .to eliminate vibrations i set the engine up so that that uni had bout 3 to 5 degress of flexion.so basically my advice for what its worth is set your motor up so that the jack shaft is nearly dead straight.mine doesnt vibrate at all.heres a pic if it helps ya .jack shafts dont come any shorter than this

jack shaft??
i dont follow what your saying mine looks simular but the zook yoke is welded in about 10mm of the old nissan tail shaft (2 sets of uni's_) 1 nissan 1 zook i lifted the gearbox up 5mm and it calmed the vibration.roc box wrote:i havent done that exactly but do have 4k corolla and auto ,my shaft consists of a single uni.the internal cap size of toyota and zook are the same so its flange to flange and one uni .to eliminate vibrations i set the engine up so that that uni had bout 3 to 5 degress of flexion.so basically my advice for what its worth is set your motor up so that the jack shaft is nearly dead straight.mine doesnt vibrate at all.heres a pic if it helps ya .jack shafts dont come any shorter than this![]()
what do you think keep lifting it?
What sort of condition are the Uni's in ?? Are they new and greased ?
Did it always vibrate or just start and gradually get worse ?
Are your transfer case arms straight ?

it was bad when i brought it but i shimmed the gearbox up a little and it got a little better, the faster u go the worse it get's. is it possible to get such a small shaft balanced?love_mud wrote:What sort of condition are the Uni's in ?? Are they new and greased ?
