I've had a '00 Isuzu Hombre for about 15 years now. It's got a 3/4 drop on 18" Boss 304's. I've always wanted to bag it, but never did. These PNW winters haven't been kind to the paint, so my 16 year old son and I have fun restoration project coming in the spring.
That sounds like a great project for you two. I was thinking of tackling the paint on this one as well but not sure. I used to do some body and paint but its a bit messy haha
I had a 94 kingcab like this with the 4 banger and a 8 foot box. It was one of the best vehicles I have ever owned. I only did wear and tear stuff on it, nothing ever really broke on it. I thought about getting another one but the back jump seats were dangerous for kids and I have a family now. I was a teenager when I had that truck and I can tell you that with good shocks and the sway bars cranked down on the front it handled very well, I could take an off ramp at high speed no problem. It also did awesome burnouts. I drove the piss out of that thing for years.
This is cool Brian not saying your usual stuff from this channel is boring cause its not but sometimes change is good and this is super bad ass can’t wait to see more of what you do to it….this video had me on the edge of my seat
Cool nissan I can’t wait to see you work on it. I would definitely check out Mr1jim timing chain tensioner. It will save you a lot of headache on timing chain rattle.
You keep kikinass Brian my wife and I want to show you and Frank our 63 c10 hopefully next year no it's not a mini but we have a lot of respect for you guys 🇺🇸🕺💃 keep ER Rollin HOMIE
Hell yea, dude. Truck looks like an awesome starting point. You probably already know, or it may already be in the comments below (I don't read haha), but Rohde Fab makes some sweet parts for the D21 trucks.
Next episode will have some updates to the seat situation. I think it would be cool to add the cruise control. They also make after market ones. But not sure if I want to spend the money as this will be sold and not sure it would add value. Either way...all fun stuff to do.
Such a cool little project truck and a great way to check a new format. I have the same truck in front of my shop (except the AC - we don't need it in Germany ☝️🥶). It was really interesting to follow all the steps to get the car fixed and registered. (nice b-roll, btw!) 👍 It would be cool to see more D21 stuff. 👋😉
@@GrinderTV I don't comment on each episode of "the drop", but I watch / listen to them all. So it was interesting to hear you teasering some information about the idea behind this project and it's upcoming content. Sorry about my late reply - I'll send you some pictures of my "tilt-bed-project". 👋😉👍
I will look I may have the handle for the glove box and if ya find a 4x4 v6 rag cab it will have full plastics from the roof down to the floor in the rear of cab
nice one mate .. worthless info for ya - in Australia we call this a Nissan Navara. loving the podcast .. yeah Im one of the ‘25 listeners’ .. also my lazy arse is finally subscribing .. cheers 🍻😏
haha heck ya. I def am familiar with the Aussie truck names. Funny story though...up until I bought this I didn't know the official name here was "D21"...I only knew them by Harbody or Navara. Cheers man
Oh heck ya. Thank you and I will keep that in mind. I plan do build a few of these trucks moving forward so will def need to keep my life lines open for random parts.
I have 1993 D21 awesome my a/c is out though and the horn my dash is cracked too took it to a mechanic they stole my Cadillac converter you know what I mean
Ok the interior tells me it's a base model Dash says it's a 95-97. Can't be a 94. Dash would be different. Timing chain guides are only real issues if it's a 4cyl. Hopefully it is. They last longer then v6 The door handle-arm rest. Beware of eBay ones from China. There hard as rocks. Thialand ones are soft. Parts 95-96-97 are the same. 87-94 some won't work.
Timing chain start up rattle.. But parts from Japan or thialand. Avoid china. I only use oil filters from Nissan. They prevent timing chain start up rattle. Frame wixs are the worst for this issues. I have a 95&97
It's so rad seeing so many people buying older trucks and just doing static drops and cruising them
agreed. I love it.
I got a 93 s10, a 93 4 door blazer and the wife has a 91 toyota ex cab, all static dropped
I love all of this !
I’m LOVING it!!! A mini truck build!!!
Peace, Love & MiniTrucks! ✌🏻
I'm here for it. Cool deal Brian. Takes me back to 90s
Hell yeah !!!! I’m still rocking my 80s s10 and s10 blazer bagged
Excited to see how this thing unfolds
Same here lol
Damn. I had one of these, and my kids loved it.

So cool man. Ya I would def think twice about putting anyone in the extra cab jump seats of these hahaha.

Killer video Brian can't wait to see what you do with it and your surprises you have in stall have a good minitruckin brotha ..
This is cool Brian not saying your usual stuff from this channel is boring cause its not but sometimes change is good and this is super bad ass can’t wait to see more of what you do to it….this video had me on the edge of my seat
Thanks man, we gonna mix it up for sure
I agree !
Great content..look forward to see you guys this summer.
Thanks Don. Appreciate it
Love me some hard body action! I'm tuned in...
Look forward to watching the build come together.
That truck rules!! Can’t wait to see this thing in the future. A nice static cruiser will be rad!
I bought a 93 b2200 on Labor Day 2022… getting it ready for mini nats.. be cool to see you there.. 3 months to go!
We will be there. Come by the booth and say whats up
Same exact truck as my old Hardbody! Same wheels and paint..it was an 89 though,so it had the older interior but with the updated frontend
Awesome score have a blast. Love this idea
Looking forward to this lil build. I added cruise control to mine using a rostra kit.
I looked it up and would def do that if I was going to keep it for a longer period of time
I love my hardbody it gets great gasmileage, it is fun as hell to drive, the ac is super cold,and it's easy to work on
Cool nissan I can’t wait to see you work on it. I would definitely check out Mr1jim timing chain tensioner. It will save you a lot of headache on timing chain rattle.
oh thank you, it does have some strange noise and not sure exactly what it is. I will look into that for sure.
the door chime is the best thing ever. im trying to fix mine currently
agreed
Looking forward to seeing more. Oh, and nice tach 👌 😆
Gonna be a dope lil project
Man I really want a 94-97 D21. $2600 is a steel of a deal.
I couldn't pass it up. I will make it tidy and send it off to a good home after this.
I like it !!! Can’t wait to see what you do to it but I think you’ll do more than you expected to at the start !!
Cant wait to see what you do with this!!🔥
You keep kikinass Brian my wife and I want to show you and Frank our 63 c10 hopefully next year no it's not a mini but we have a lot of respect for you guys 🇺🇸🕺💃 keep ER Rollin HOMIE
Heck yes. Def keep me updated on that one. Thank you for the kind words
Hell yea, dude. Truck looks like an awesome starting point. You probably already know, or it may already be in the comments below (I don't read haha), but Rohde Fab makes some sweet parts for the D21 trucks.
I did see someone else talk about that. I need to look into it. Glad someone has some rad parts for these.
I still have my 94 mighty max. When you come thru mid Tennessee. Let go Cruzin.
GET IT!!
My 96 xe came with buckets and a console with cup holders. It also has cruise control. Might be a fun add on for yours
Next episode will have some updates to the seat situation. I think it would be cool to add the cruise control. They also make after market ones. But not sure if I want to spend the money as this will be sold and not sure it would add value. Either way...all fun stuff to do.
Looks like my truck before I static dropped it. I used the same factory wheels with white walls. Have fun it’s going to be dope
MAVERICK
85 or 86 nissan
Yeah I listen to the pod cast
hahahaha you do pay attention foooo shoooo

Nissan hardbody d21 coming up in value too.
They are for sure. Shopping around I was surprised. But nice to see value in them
So many Lanes you can build it in! At ked for you OG! See her at sittin pritti?!
Not sure, most likely a show closer to home.
"and this glovebox is a thing" hahaha
Window logo ready
Man, you left me on the side of the road, like a bad ex.
That was the plan all along
@@GrinderTV YOU MEANIE!!! IM TELLING MOMMY!!
Perfect!
Knew you might like this one haha
The A/C on my 87 d21 always worked I charged it 1 time in 20 years lol o yeah I have 8 sparks on my 4 banger 2.4
I will look I may have the handle for the glove box and if ya find a 4x4 v6 rag cab it will have full plastics from the roof down to the floor in the rear of cab
That would be rad. I have had no luck with Ebay....might stop at a junk yard this week but let me know.
nice one mate .. worthless info for ya - in Australia we call this a Nissan Navara.

haha heck ya. I def am familiar with the Aussie truck names. Funny story though...up until I bought this I didn't know the official name here was "D21"...I only knew them by Harbody or Navara. Cheers man
Ok where do I sign up to buy it?? Great video!!
Cool!!! Find something for me and Frank. I want a static everyday driver.
I know where a Toyota is but no motor...and it comes with a cat.
No thank you I won’t even walk up to that truck.
It has to be bagged. I’ll help if you’re ever in the 402. Some Escalade wheels and some bags and it’s like 2004 all over again.
No bags on this one. I have a body dropped Tacoma that will be on the channel soon. Appreciate ya
I got one for $1200 and I'm going to restore it ❤
i want a mini truck sooo badly :(
My 97 had cruise contol 😜
I am bringing this one over so we can body drop it in your garage. I will bring pizza.
@@GrinderTV deal. Lol
Dope👍👊
Dope! Lowering it next?
yaaa buuudddyyyy
Hey Brother any parts you need any parts, I am in Northern California so Pick N Pull Redding, Chico are close.
Oh heck ya. Thank you and I will keep that in mind. I plan do build a few of these trucks moving forward so will def need to keep my life lines open for random parts.
Come to Ohio for Phlat Out On The Farm or Dropt n Destroyed!!!!
Send me an interior parts list I go to the yards weekly. Be careful with the column cover they like to break
This one is cracked haha. I need the glove box latch with no key. Seems most came with locks attached.
I looked for 2 monthe for the glove box latch then lucked out on ebay and got a metal one for $49😮
Ima keep looking. There is a junkyard with a truck full of parts in it. I might go check it out tomorrow.
I have 1993 D21 awesome my a/c is out though and the horn my dash is cracked too took it to a mechanic they stole my Cadillac converter you know what I mean
Hi bud you should get a considerable size truck a little nissan wouldnt do you but so much.
I have a larger truck to do larger truck things.
man get the old pathfinder wheels
I was thinking about it for sure. But I went a little different direction. Next episode is about wheels
HAHAHAH you got the rare tach/speedo all in 1.
lololol
It's alright I guess
I have a 93 and looking to sell....
Yours and mine are almost twins!! I have bench seat.
Ok the interior tells me it's a base model
Dash says it's a 95-97.
Can't be a 94. Dash would be different.
Timing chain guides are only real issues if it's a 4cyl. Hopefully it is. They last longer then v6
The door handle-arm rest. Beware of eBay ones from China. There hard as rocks. Thialand ones are soft.
Parts 95-96-97 are the same.
87-94 some won't work.
its 100% a 94. Its a weird year where they used parts from older and newer. It is a 4cyl and I am gonna do the timing chain.
I have a glove box latch if you want it. I'm in Phoenix. Let me know
Yessss I am still wanting one. Best way to get a hold of you? Hit me up on IG @grinder_tv or email grindertv@gmail.com
@@GrinderTV cool I sent you an email
Hi I am a Seller of Rock lights on Amazon, could you help me make a unboxing and installation video for my rock lights?
If you make anything for a 95 Chevy Truck or an 04 Nissan Titan I will.
@@GrinderTV may I have your email or ins?

Timing chain start up rattle..
But parts from Japan or thialand. Avoid china.
I only use oil filters from Nissan. They prevent timing chain start up rattle. Frame wixs are the worst for this issues.
I have a 95&97
i only use nissan oil filters for my Titan too. I had some other brand and it actually was making a humming noise like a fuel pump. Super strange.
Cool truck. Check out Scrapingpavement on TH-cam. He also has Rhode Fab which offers kits for customizing these trucks.
oh heck ya thank you
