SD22 question (720 4WD factory SD22?)

[asavage]

I have both the early and late 720 4WD sd sumps and also have the d21 4wd sd25 - which is interesting as there is no room in sump for the oil pump so they moved it to the back of the timing case and plumbed it with more cast pipe like the oil cooler, when converting say a 2wd engine over don't miss the sleeve that goes in to block off the oil galleries in the normal pump position . . .

I have some sump photo's - is there someone I can mail them to who would like to host them

mani, I appreciate your having taken the time to get these pics to us. For me, this is the first time I've seen the Nissan factory way of adapting the SD engine for 4WD.

all,
There are some unique things with the 4wd sd22 720, like to remove the gearbox the FSM says to remove transfer case and front diff . same for engine. I take out diff + suspension cross members then push diff forward . floor is cut a little behind gearstick allowing gearbox to backup into cabin enough to drop front down

That is one weird looking oil pan! But if the oil pickup is in the bottom there you should would get good slosh protection.
