New fish with a 1985 720 King Cab seeking help

[ontarioguy1983]

in ontario any vehicle older than 20 years does not need to be e-tested as far as i know.

oh perfect! ill look into that. Also, i see you're in Ontario... wanna be friends? haha i just need some help/questions answered about my carb and possibly swapping it out for a Weber.

im in the same boat as you i just got the truck and havent done anywork to it yet . i am still learning about the parts. where in ont are you? do you know any good junkyards for datsun parts?

ive just noticed that one of the wheel nuts is missing....(i know, i have a few screws loose for not noticing). It seems that it is shorter than the rest also? I went o Pepboys to get some replacement nuts and the ones that fit all the rest on that wheel seem too snug for this rogue stud? i stripped the thread on one of the other nuts when i tried to swap them around. is there a reason why the stud would be a different diameter to the others? has anyone heard of this before??

could of been all they had at the time when bought, and remember the studs and nuts are metric
