Rebuilding The Rear Suspension & Installing Custom Axles: 240SX Restomod Ep.21

[@saabkyle04]

Hey everyone, quick update! I have a press drive I'm attending for the first half of next week so my plan is to get the 240 aligned when I get back at the end of the week, pending weather of course. Thanks for watching!

[@JNorth87]

Hey Kyle! I think this is one of the best videos you've ever done. Good work!

[@saabkyle04]

Thank you!!!

[@makalaga56]

i'm just curious. How much money have you spent on all the work done to this car? Im not talking like: "You could buy better car with this money spent", im just curious how much money compared to wehicle base price is put to this day. Thanks :)

[@saabkyle04]

I really don't know the exact amount (probably for the best at this point haha), but to give you an idea, the brakes alone cost as much as the car did. It'll be such a special car when it's done, but to do it at the level I'm going for, it hasn't been cheap. I should do a video on it at some point haha.

[@Happyman-od7zp]

Morning Kyle, loving this series! Hope you have a great day!

[@N7Bluerose]

This was my Saturday morning cartoon. Thanks Kyle.

[@Underappreciatedclassics]

Foxtreal Same bud, good morning!

[@saabkyle04]

Thank YOU! Have a great day!

[@saabkyle04]

Good Morning!

[@N7Bluerose]

Joseph Linz Same to you. 👍

[@_zach]

Omg that whole underside is really looking great Kyle! I really like how much attention to detail you're putting into the build here. Definitely one of my favorite restoration projects on KZbin right now, keep up the great work man!!

[@brandenongkp]

As good as new or even better.

[@siangetz8808]

*Out with the old and in with the new* CHRISSHHFIXSSHHHH

[@simengundersen8861]

This is hands down the cleanest 240 i've ever seen

[@mentallyhandicappedpoptart2649]

Awesome video as always Kyle will never stop watching 💪🏼👍🏻

[@808faccio5]

CloroxBleach we meet again

[@saberphillippe3426]

ALMOST IN EVERY VIDEO I SEE YOU!!!!

[@pwilk924]

the inspiration is real!

[@insertausernamehere4515]

The suspension looks brand new from factory its amazing

[@saabkyle04]

Thank you my friend!

[@insertausernamehere4515]

Saabkyle04 you welcome :D

[@fahisaurus]

Love your attention to detail with using a torque wrench and marking torqued fasteners.

[@YoBoyNero]

Those wheels look so gorgeous on your 240 especially with that color

[@rjprz5929]

This car is super awesome, that RB25 will be a monster.

[@smithraymond09029]

Kyle is like a surgeon. I work the same way. Very organized, neat, thinking of longevity, dealing with systems, not parts.

[@saabkyle04]

Thank you!

[@bhumiriady]

Spectacular video as always... That installation is so difficult, but fun at the same time! It's definitely worth the work. Good job!

[@zzz5602]

The channel that made me a car enthusiast.

[@Cekocraft]

The suspension looks amazing! Good job, Kyle!

[@tchp3988]

I'm glad that you did a collaboration with chrissfix. That's how I find your channel :D. Btw can't wait to see you drive this baby.

[@klal]

SO satisfying!

[@saabkyle04]

Thank you!!

[@trollaphobic]

Everything just looks so clean and nice! Gaaah. Its like you wanna drive it but never wanna drive it 😬😬😬😬. So excited for you.

[@JacobFrey]

Wow, you're doing an incredible job with this, Kyle. I love your car!

[@elijahburrell2472]

This car is gonna handle so good

[@T.MaDom25]

I've been watching this Guy since I was in the six grade and I graduated last year. so yeah he's one of my favorites 😊

[@Likethetacosauce]

Looks good man!!! Can't wait to c a driving review

[@charlesescarria3726]

Rear suspension looks sick

[@bluecollarjose]

You and Tommyfyeah have the best builds.

[@jorgejacop]

This video made my weekend! Thank you for another update on the 240! Can’t wait to see this beast done!

[@RemiPut]

I'm pretty jealous you can do this all by yourself , great and interesting vid Kyle 👍

[@saabkyle04]

Thanks bud! It hasn't been without struggles, but I enjoy the challenge of learning how to do all of this :)

[@RemiPut]

You're welcome , that car will be basically brand new , enjoy it a lot to see how you make progress 👍

[@shawnprickett4099]

Right now you could say its a handling sleeper with the only indication of its performance being the lower height and wheels. Once you put the RB in it its gonna be a beast.

[@MrSuperGamingSir]

Faaaarrrrkkk man when you set it down and it set i was in love never liked the wheel choice but now it looks amazing by far the best series on youtube right now congrats man

[@JosephJonesJRJ]

My favorite projecton KZbin. It's fun wrenching vicariously through you, Kyle. Looking forward to seeig it on the road after all this work.

[@mannys9130]

Your work is so thorough and proper Kyle. Excellent job. It's going to drive like a dream!

[@StreetersGarage]

Looks great Kyle. Attention to detail pays off in the end. Great Work!

[@royl6715]

You should consider publishing parts lists! I know that'd take a ton of effort but it'd be pretty useful for folks rebuilding their S13s.

[@eaglesquade.s1300]

The 240 is definitely going out awesome. You have done a great job.

[@Highway94]

Ive seen several of your videos show up on the recommend feed, but never really paid attention to it. This video was by far my fist video of yours i actually watched and wow, you sure do know your stuff! Good job , Kyle im defnitely going to sub and look at more videos, hopefully i can get to your level of knowledge one day haha

[@vezitalohe3262]

Cleannn👍

[@jabonky]

Look at all that newness under there. Looks great!

[@grimgar8573]

Thank you guys this would help allot. Thanks.

[@roger3137]

Honestly this is an awesome build love the process and all the details being broken down.

[@danielmartinez6485]

I love your car: cheap at the otside, beefy at the inside

[@Aldiggi]

Can't wait for you to get this done. This journey with you has been a joy!!

[@saabkyle04]

Thank you for your support, it really means a lot!!

[@GMcarsMAN]

It's a beautiful project car and an amazing project itself. Congratulations Kyle.

[@daniellorenzo2785]

Cant wait to see the end result!!!!!

[@nos1000100]

when a car from the 80s has a better looking under carriage than most brand new sport cars. I bet you can point the wheels in any direction and that thing will go there.

[@mattzegarelli9658]

The table scratch lives on! Haha nother great video!

[@JamesRussoMillas]

Kyle carry the RB swap torch now that MCM is done with their 240Z!

[@saabkyle04]

:)

[@neilomac]

It's certainly going to be a MAAAAAD car.

[@tomduffy4870]

I always find the 240 videos really satisfying

[@mrcjstudio]

Cant wait to see you driving it. This series will make anyone want to roll up their sleeves ad mod their car

[@moaazmorgan7944]

This car is so clean

[@saabkyle04]

Thank you!

[@davemcguigan218]

Great video of your suspension rebuild! You are always very thorough!

[@q1v1]

Hey Kyle, Your build is top notch When you are done with it you should take it to The Jay Leno’s garage

[@mobne]

Love your entusiasm, good work :)

[@screwsnutsandbolts]

Great videos !

[@NuclearCowboyTube]

Awesome Video Series Kyle! This Car is so well done!

[@xInline6]

It’s.. it’s beautiful. All those new parts

[@danielsingleton3576]

Making great progress brother

[@otakujhp]

I think you might end up with one of the best driving 240s in the nation. I can't even imagine how much that thing is worth.

[@ben101990]

Looks so good Kyle, great work...can’t wait for that driving video!

[@saabkyle04]

Thanks pal!!

[@johnperry5631]

Looks good Kyle!!!!

[@danielshaysevand5096]

[@eraclioandrade1522]

Beautiful s13

[@aussiebattler96]

awesome video dude such a good day I'm getting my first car monday (Australia obviously lol)

[@saabkyle04]

Congratulations!!! Thanks pal!

[@aussiebattler96]

No thank you mate for putting out high quality content!! :D

[@GonHemi]

Excellent job Kyle, it will handle like a dream!

[@saabkyle04]

Thank you!!!

[@RobertKohut]

Nice!! Lovin' this series!!

[@saabkyle04]

Thanks Robert!

[@unknownknown360]

wow .... dream car....

[@ryancartwright7487]

Love to see it 🤩

[@amill1563]

Go all the way dude. You've come so far and looks awesome.

[@saabkyle04]

Thanks pal!

[@caseman91]

Seen that turbo manifold 😏😏😏

[@icurt06]

Nice job on your rear end rebuild! There are different size torque wrenches available (1/4, 3/8, 1/2, etc ) I've run into similar clearance problems in the past when torquing bolts to spec. My 3/8" toque wrench can torque up to 80 ft lbs.

[@stevenbenitez1851]

Cleanest build on the internet, keep it up Kyle!

[@saabkyle04]

Thanks Steven!!

[@JusttRelaxx]

Great project!!! Keep it up :)

[@ec5074]

Cool rebuild!!! Video was awsome!!

[@marino4691]

those wheels look sick!!

[@saabkyle04]

Man, it took me forever to find the "right" wheels for this car! They're TE37SLs, 17X9 +22. They have a timeless look to them for sure!

[@emmareporter4324]

Saabkyle04 aw I love those wheels

[@1mlb704]

I love these vids Kyle, great work!

[@kwikscopeguy]

You talked about the bushings on the ISR arms being torn, those are simply rubber dust shields, those arms have spherical bearings like SPL arms, albeit much lower quality.

[@DanaHarripersad3350]

Looks awesome, Kyle! Been quietly tracking this series from the start - but this video is the best one you've done yet! Looking forward to the 240's maiden voyage! :)

[@saabkyle04]

Thank you so much!!

[@DanaHarripersad3350]

You're welcome... dang, I'm shocked to have actually gotten a response! ^_^; Safe travels and clear horizons, Saabkyle. :)

[@chadwickwhite8400]

I do need to save for a set of those lifts sometime.

[@Leandroalemauuum]

1:55 Genius!

[@xristopanagia2693]

Why did it take you so long to start making videos for the 240sx?! Chris said about 1 whole year ago you would make videos for it and it took 1 year to finally upload a video with the 240. Although it took you much longer than it should I'm still happy to finally seeing the 240 again :-D

[@Gatambwa]

Amazing job!!!!!!!😳👏🏽🙌🏽

[@OscarDaGenius]

Wow that looks amazing

[@saabkyle04]

Thanks pal!

[@farhangusmar]

Even better !!!!!

[@musicfadel918]

Amazing

[@vividvulpe9842]

Good work, man!

[@nazarenofernandez2549]

OMG, SO SHINY.

[@iceman32qs]

GOOOOOD MORNING 😃

[@saabkyle04]

Likewise! :D

[@izhlayukio5863]

You need to take this to Hoonigans for a build biology when this is done!

[@saabkyle04]

Sounds awesome!

[@3lbtrigger]

DAMN! That rear toe was WAY out when you set the car down.

[@mobne]

Have you ever looked in too rear bumpsteer?

[@dannovic]

Those teflon/self lubricating bushings you installed in the hub, do they come with dust booths or doesn't any sand or water damage them?

[@qferal1196]

Just got into your channel! I have a ‘90 s13 and am venturing into the same sort of suspension/subframe rebuilds. I’m curious about where you got the torque specifications for all the hardware you replace.

[@951berto7]

Can you do a startup on the 2018 Toyota Tacoma please

[@Underappreciatedclassics]

50th view, I cannot wait to see the engine swap!

[@ForTehNguyen]

clocking bushings is what its called when you torque them while the car is on the ground

[@saabkyle04]

Ohhh, I didn't know that, thanks bud!

[@jaaj7381]

would you mind if I used one of your videos to use on my channel? thanks in advance.

[@TheGlassChambers]

I totally understand why you changed out the suspension arms but I do want to point out that i dont think your comparison between the spl and isr arms was giving people the right impression. It looked from the video like you were implying that they were better because they are beefier/weigh more. This is not always true especially when talking about suspension arms. Not only are you adding extra weight that is not supported by suspension but a really strong suspension arm can be problematic. If you do smash into a curb the (easily replaceable) arm wont flex and break as intended and instead will transfer all that energy right into your chassis. Food for thought..

[@unclassifiedjz6885]

what do you use to record ? the clarity is damn good

[@Ninjaboy459]

I was going to buy ISR Parts for my 240sx but seeing kyle attack them here pretty much idk if i should lmfao

[@USUKallday]

Where did you get the polymer bushings for the rear lower control arms?
