I had an open Saturday and decided to build a roof platform. I used three 10’ lengths of super-strut, cut and welded then painted several coats of satin black. I think it turned out decent considering it only took about 4 hrs to build and cost about $65 including paint and welding wire.

My nose is burning from all the bleach we use at work now. #essential

I’m in north Georgia and most local small businesses are all closed. Local restaurants are struggling and the streets are nowhere near as busy as usual. My job is intact as we blow mold toner bottles which go to hospitals, however toner bottles are maybe 5% of our sales, the rest is small engine fuel tanks for Honda and Honda is on lockdown due to a SARS2 outbreak. I expect to see our operations go down to a skeleton crew soon.. I’m planning on building an AR15 with the stimulus cash. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Pro

Bumper is on. Loving it so far, massive upgrade over the brush guard. Just waiting till Monday to add the tubing over the grill and headlights. The steel shop is closed over the weekend. Then I also need to find a good mounting point for the fogs Took her on a trip to the mountains today

I have read the previous posts with interest in this thread as I am going through pretty much the same issue...I think. 1999 Pathfinder 4x4, awhile back the distributer bearings failed at over 230,000 miles, so I replaced the distributer....I purchased a rebuilt Hitachi from Nissan...put it in an all was well. I think about two weeks or so elapsed and the car some jerking while driving and then at one point just shut off....the jerking was not just before the shut off, it was like jerk jerk drive then at random just shut off. Got it home under own power, fiddled with it for a bit and for no apparent reason it began to work again for about 6 weeks with no problem highway and town....then just shut off with no jerking at light restart....drive a few feet shut off crank no start....then start....got to a parking lot...that night and next morning crank, no start.....codes P1320 ignistion signal primary circuit, P0325 Knock /combustion vibration sensor, P0138 O2 senso9r circuit high voltage bank 1 sensor 2, P0140 o2 sensor circuit, no activity detected bank 1 sensor 2......the knock sensor does nto seem to be concern...also have a frontier with the same engine and i thin kthis code is a common fail point on the VG33. I have a factory service manual and chiltons....have some some time with the voltmeter.....but may need to go back to it fresh as I am learning as I go.......for example I have yet to test the resistor as I am unsure how to unplug the harness that the chiltons speaks of....like the harness may be hidden in the loom which being this old...I am trying not to break too much plastic stuff....the few tests I haev done on the distributor seem good so far but I don't know yet if the cam sensor on distro could be bad.....here's the thing...this problem seems gone again but I don't trust the car now.....I fired it up today and watched the air intake data looking for irregularities but did not see any.....don't want to take it to Nissan yet as they charge a lot and might not fix it.....but it is that cost vs...worth equation.....really just sharing but if there are any thoughts on the transient nature of the problem or anything else, I welcome them. The remanufactured distro was not cheap.....nissan will not consider warrantee swap unless they diagnose on the car.....I bought a cheapo off the net I could swap but at this point the car runs so no point.....just I think nothing was done to fix it so I think at a random point a day or a month from now the car will lay down when I need it....so there it is...

Came out pretty great. Needs a few little things like caps for the open ends, maybe some extra support in the center. I used 3/8ths bar stock for the center uprights so it should be strong enough. I also did the tubing on the outside of the bumper so that it would have more surface area in contact to make it stronger and so that it would protect the fog lights as well. And I made sure to go wide enough on the corners to keep the original turn signals visible from the front but not too wide that it sticks out excessively. The headlight sections more or less follow the angles of the bumper
