Very, very nice Ryan! -
Now who would bring this back up after 4 months? ;-) Shows you how much I'm on these days. heheheheh. It was a great time - glad the board has the current staff that do such a great job. I was on Mr Jims very first forum. Was that in 2000-2001? Or as early as 1999? I don't know if anyone else on that board is still here? '88 and Simon? It's great to see it today. The first forum was just a message list.

Plenty of room for 63's. Shackles may be to far back for some people. However, try and keep the rear stock as there is so much potential with it.

Such sad news. My thoughts to Jared's family and friends.

Welcome! Guess you'll have to come to the Calgary Nissan 4x4 annual Jamboree this August!

Strange Popping sounds coming from front end..
Mookie replied to colbywan's topic in 90-95 WD21 Pathfinders
Popping usually means what Grim posted. Should be a picture, circle and arrows if ircc (if you can find the post) -
Hello, Yup, that conversion has been done by quite a few. I'm almost certain there is a write up on this site. Do a search and hopefully that will shed some info for you. I used an 1157 socket (replaced the stock one) and used a dremel to make the socket fit. There is a much easier way to do this - and the write up iirc is the way to do it.

That's what happened to mine also. Died, was able to start for 1 second and then nothing. But I was able to grab the c.a. sensor code.

While you are at it, take good pics of the front end geometry. Death wobble usually comes from the front end. What is the castor set at? Some closer pics of the drag link and tierod in relation to each other would help also.

SAS got a axle but need help.

Chevy 63's on a Pathy - gives you an idea for your HB. -
It does sound like the 02 sensor. Surging or misfire under load, against headwinds, especially after the engine is up to temp. I don't think you can clean them, but you can test the voltage I believe. I think...someone might chime in about this.

....aaaaaand back to our topic please... :-)

That's my take too. One can get caught up in the numbers of it all. Focusing on a set price, set budget. But...with a custom project like this, there are a 1000 things that will come up that will nickel and dime you to death. Even just buying small tools/sockets/supplies that you don't have (like the big ass socket/wrenches to get the nut off the upper ball joint) all add up in the long run. Adapters for your brake lines, maybe the drive shaft angles aren't working out, so now you have to cut and rotate your ears on your front diff to get the pinion angles correct. Lots of unknowns. Lot's of details that you can't really put a price on until you get the project to a point of testing. Then after everything is all said and done, there is usually a year or two or three or four of debugging/improvements that are done once you start to wheel it . Of course it's all subjective so one can build and leave it alone and wheel without ever doing another thing to the truck. Another thing to keep in mind. The more your rig is modified, the more maintenance and attention to details of it will always be needed. So there is a time investment that always seems to be lurking around. Of course, an R50 project like this is something I think most of us look forward to watching the build up. Something new, something not run of the mill. Just giving a heads up on some stuff that sometimes doesn't get thought about. Good luck!!

Leafs up front and coils in the rear is done quite a bit with Sas'd rigs. I mainly see it on the domestics, but there has been a Pathy or two with leafs up front and coils in the rear.
