  1. You can turn the overdrive OFF with the lower button on the shift lever. It will reset to ON if the truck is shut off and started again. You might want it off climbing the Rockies or northern Ontario though. I've pulled some heavy stuff up hills and not have to shut it off but then I haven't done the cross country trip with a Pathfinder. I have done the Canada coast to coast trip before though. Hint: Take a camera!
  2. My '03 is listed at 5000lbs. with an automatic and 3500lbs. wth a standard tranny. They also recommend trailer brakes for anything over 1000lbs. and a sway control for over 2000lbs.
  3. I don't know if this helps but my info. has P0011 listed as"intake valve timing control performance on the right bank".
  4. ABCAB that SAS looks great...it makes your Great Dane look so tiny!
  5. So I checked for a cabin filter today because my heater was so bad. Well someone had removed the old filter, which left a 3/4" X 8" open slot between the fan and the heater core. All it was doing was blowing cold air out of the fan, through the slot and most of the air never made it to the heater core. No pressure out of the vents and not very warm. Taped over the slot with duct tape (the real stuff) and I can't believe the heat and air volume blowing out of the vents now! Now to replace the blower resistor and have more than speed 4 on the fan..
  6. Get the whole thing if you can...then you're not missing anything.
  7. If your key won't turn in the lock it may just lubing. In the R50 the lock is an electrical switch just like on the arm rest inside. On sisters truck it was the part that they connects to, an electrical thingy connected to the machanical thingy the operates the rods for the inner and out door handles and the door latch. I think there are 5 rods with the pivot points lots of wire plugs and about 20 bolts and screws. There are acouple of metal plates I took out to try to fit my hands in there. Best thing is to have small hands and very long fingers.
  8. Have you fixed your door locks yet? I swapped some parts from my old truck to my sisters truck to get hers working. We were surprized by every thing in there. On a R50 the key lock is just an electric switch...no mechanical connection at all to the door lock. You should be able to get a panel removal tool at any auto store for ten bucks.
  9. I keep expecting him to pop up and yell "DRINK !"
  10. I don't see a downside. The pipe is 1.75 " O.D. A 1.75" I.D pipe and a couple of muffler clamps can adjust your pipe length.
  11. Try the search for "sunroof drain" in the forums. It seems a common problem..

    New calendar

    Does anyone know where I can get a new Mayan calendar? Mine has expirered. Also I NEED to update my Y2K Kit. Anybuddy hook me up? Plus I want to wish all my old and new friends in NPORA a HAPPY NEW YEAR! Kevin & Zarra
  13. On my old Pathfinder there where one or two of the flat braided copper ground wires that were originally hooked to the heat sheilds. It ran great with out them. I did hook them up again though.
  14. I did HAVE to use my 4 wheel drive today...the truck has been in the back yard since Sunday {family Christmas}. It was parked on grass in 60 degree temps since last Saturday when it snowed, then ice, then snow hit before more ice. I'd just put on my Warn hubs before the storms and now I'm sure everything works perfect. I tried to see if things would lock up properly in 4X4 on gravel but all I did was hurt my neck. Nice to have some ice to remind me why I love my Warn hubs. Same hubs... 2nd Pathfinder.
  15. Like he said...way too trouble shoot!

    Merry Christmas?

    I just sold my last Chiestmas tree at 2:00PM . Sales have slowed down since then. After they left I had mine up bt 4:00.
  17. Today I pulled the Warn hubs off my old '98 and the stock hubs from my "new" '03. Then put the Warns on the'03. I could not belive how fast it happend. Everything works perfect on the short drive. I'm looking forward to the long term.

    SFD suspsension

    CND I think it's funny that you have a 47 page build site and you are still asked what you have done! Way to help out. Any info might help some one out.
  19. I hear you, why fix it if it's still working!
  20. I'm not sure about shock length but since they are over 15 years old, why not put some good ones in there with the new coils. I'm guessing rears...the fronts are struts.
  21. How about (1) find the hole the mice come in and (2) plug that hole. Hint...they normaly climb a tire to get in.
  22. I just swapped my 245/70/16's for my old trucks 31X10.5/15's. You can't go taller than 31" without either spacers or a differant offset rim. Even with a lift you can't go taller than 31" without the spacer or more than 3.75 offset when you might need to alter your fender lip.
  23. You can get marine battery cable terminals with a built in on/off switch. Even if some one breaks in and hot wires or gets past the steering lock they will still have to get the hood open, fiind the switch and repete.
  24. I leave my Rottweiler (Zarra) in the back with the windows open. I've had no problems so far. The doors are unlocked and the keys are on the console.
