I just got my truck yesterday. It is an 1984 Nissan 720. Im new to mini truckin so i dont know alot.

First off when i hit the switch for the whole front to go down, the left side goes down a little faster then the right. so to get the right side all the way down I have to flipp the front right switch. Whats the problem here? I checked all my connections and everything seems to be fine.

And also i was lookin at my oil pressure gage an at idol it was at like 60psi and went down to about 45psi, I thought that was a littel high so I pulled the dipstick and its an alright amount over the HIGH level. Is that bad for my motor?

And last off, my friend was sitting in the truck with the door opened and I gess he thought it would be cool to flipp some switches while im not looking. So he does and the whole right side slames on the ground and the door hits the curb. . when he goes to close it its a lil bent to so I bent it back down so it would close pretty good but not as easly as the driver side. Are the hindges brent or my door itself? What can a do to fix it?

thanks for your guys help

1) im assuming you have a switch box. i had a problem like that w/ my 10 switch box and had to wrap a couple switches with electrical tape cuz they were shorting on each other.

2) just do an oil change and put the correct amount of oil in. not a bad idea to change it when you get a new ride anyway, just in case. also, my trucks oil pressure fluctuates from 20psi-75psi. depending on temperature and rpm.

3) tough to tell w/o seeing. but punch the shit outta your friend

welcome to minitruckin!!

I;ve had the same prob with my 10 switch box,the screws come loose sumtimes and since their so jam packed in they can short each other.

Second change you're oil goto sumthing thinner if you'd like.

third punch you're friend in the face then tell him to fix it.

too much oil is bad. probably a sign that it leaks or burns oil so the owner before you loaded up so you wouldnt notice.
