http://www.nissanpathfinders.net/forum/index.php?showtopic=8224 do you think when you get out of that college you'll be able to use punctuation? :confused:

Have you ever seen that on trails? It's frakin' hilarious. Poor bastard was so pissed off at getting out every 30 seconds. Simple answer to fix the steering issue is hydro assist.

I forget now... but don't you have to also worry about the crush sleeve when tightening the pinion nut?

True... Mine comes undone all the time and it flickers like crazy when it touches stuff around.

I think the only way to do it is if you you Crapalini slip yoke eliminator or some retarded custom setup. I was very interested in the slip yoke eliminator until i found out that everyone running it is hating the leaks and stuff coming loose.

It is quite possible. You need more tequila. hint:

Impact tools are garbage compared to what human muscle can do. Lock the nut on the pinion with a wrench, then use a breaker bar to get the bolt loose. I did that last week... worked like a charm. It's only a 10mm thread in there put some anger into it. Have you been soaking yer stuff in WD40, Liquid Wrench or PB Blaster? that makes a big difference for stuff that hasn't been taken apart in years. As to the torsion bars, I had trouble taking out the bars from the mounts, but as soon as I took the front LCA mount off (the three magic bolts/nuts) and soaked the t-bars in penetrating lubricant it came right off. EDIT: beaten to the PB Blaster by 88 by seconds.

so far you mentioned the easiest parts of the job man! my advice is to get more quality tequila.

I'll blame it on booze, but i read it as Project 2 TONNE and I thought you put Rockwell Axles under a Pathy. -alcohol-

My dealer charged me half an hour of labour to do it (plus the seal price). Considering you need an air tool capable of taking off a 32mm or so nut that's torqued to 180 ft/lbs it was really worth it.

LOL i need something that's safe to drive over 55 in the first place.... and lifted Nissans arent that. I've been driving my mom's Acura Legend for last month while working on my truck and that car is built for 100 MPH speed limits (so i can break them)... The Pathy will stay happy pissing off RVs and amish people in the right lanes 'till then.

I paid $20 for my gasket last week... filter for free? I like the idea already.

It's just a metal mesh screen. You can clean it in 5 minutes. :confused:

If the oil pressure sensor wiring is not connected, there is no light.

don't you mean MORTOR knocks?

no it means you need a new engine

Thule or Yakima... You can't go wrong with either of them. I suggest looking around ebay or craigslist for a base rack (either Yakima Q-Towers or Thule 400 or 400xt) that fits ANYTHING and then get the Pathy specific clips new from a store. That way you'll save the most money.

Maybe you had low line pressure or something. I'd recommend taking the pan off and cleaning the filter.

Weld up the rear end. Cheap, effective and when you SAS the truck, you just put new gears in and yer set.

Try your local junkyards. They're VERY easy to take out and you can check if they leak or decompress properly right on the spot.

yes sssh

Very nice. How is the frame?

You gonna share it or what? pssd

Standard 4 wire automotive relays rated for 25 amps or so will be enough. They're like $5 at most electronic stores.

A few of my Xterra and Fronty friends have moved it into their glove box. I think the wiring is different, but a glove box is much easier to wire to than running cables to the back. For now I have two spare ECUs that I pulled out of junkyards and I waterproofed mine pretty well. I will move it later on when i have time, but I think it will involve cutting all the wires and extending them quite a bit.
