Thats exactly what mine did when the fuel pump packed it in. have fun
-
Bush pig. over weight and underpowered. I even have the licence plate.
-
You can use the stock pathfinder steering box. No worries. Been running mine for 8 years on 38's
-
ok, cool. you should be ok then. however, if you want to run any larger than a 33" tire, your not going to have enough gear.. example. to get back to stock ratio with 36" tires, you need to go to 5.38:1
-
question, I assume your asking this to do a SAS. what tires you running?
-
In addtion, with the old fords, quite often you saw a STOCK 9" and D44 combo of 3.5:1 and 3.55:1. this is .05 in actual ration difference, with what you are talking about is only . 06. (4.56-4.62)
-
you guys are not correct. the difference is only. .98%. up to 1.5 % is acceptable. for example, Ford gears. Front Dana 44- 5.38, closest matching gear 5.43 (for the ford 9" in the rear). This has been done for YEARS. I used to run it in my rig. Run it.
-
Finally got a rear D44

no, a Dana 44 is not as strong as a H233b. -
for doing sheet metal that would be fine. if your going to do any "fab work" you need a 220 machine, but don't get a stick welder if your doing sheet metal and just learning.. VERY difficult.

hahah, you have no idea.. i beat on my stuff HARD.
-
called Ruff country and asked where the hell my heim joints are. that is all.

Not off to the best start...Oil Pressure Light
87pathy replied to andrewcconti's topic in 86.5-89 WD21 Pathfinders
you can put 4 quarts in these pigs with no issues. when i change my oil, it gets 4 quarts. when i have oil pressure i worry, cuase i never do.. the sending unit is bad. if your lifters were not tapping, don't worry about it. i bet its a sending unit with a loose wire. -
I looked at photos of it..BOOOO
-
you can do a cheap SAS with waggy front for close to the same price as a IFS lift.
-
they are not even bolts, they are screws on the valve cover.. they come loose all the time, just snug them up.
