AKdraws Posted November 9, 2016 Share Posted November 9, 2016 I have wanted to do this for a while and have an opportunity to pick up a second WD21 Pathfinder, i think its a 94 and SE. Automatic, 4x4, black, 4 door. It overheated and now it wont start, idk how far she drove it but it could be fried, nevermind that stuff though. I want to know if anyone has done it on this forum before? I have an IG friend in Japan that body dropped his 2door WD21 and its DOPE. I do not wish to body drop it though, thats a lot of work. I simply want to lower it (not stance) and turn it into a street beater while my current 4x4 remains the Adventure Rig. I understand i may have to swap the front end out, lose the transer case and other parts but i ask you, if you think it would be worth it? Is this a crazy pipe dream? I know most folks would say, "Why a Pathfinder? Get another ride." but i love these quirky WD21s and would love to have 2 Anyways, thats my thoughts and if I end up not lowering it, id most likely part it out. So no matter what itll be a good buy. Thanks in advanced for any input! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Charlie_Brown Posted November 9, 2016 Share Posted November 9, 2016 I've never done it myself however it can be done. There are a LOT of people that slam down D21s down to the ground. If you don't get information here I would check into a low rider forum for the D21 hardbody. I ran across one awhile back but can't remember the name Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just wanted to see if anyone had done this before on here Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LittleFR Posted November 10, 2016 Share Posted November 10, 2016 I wouldn't lower a 4x4 lot of extra work for nothing. I bet if you got it running you could trade it for a much cleaner 2wd. Or maybe before it runs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

silverton Posted November 14, 2016 Share Posted November 14, 2016 You won't be able to lower a four wheel drive as much as you want. There's just extra junk in the suspension up front. I've played around in my head about getting a two wheel drive to slam and turn in to a "race truck" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Charlie_Brown Posted November 23, 2016 Share Posted November 23, 2016 Maybe you should look into getting a D21 2WD so you don't have the excess body roll as well. Just a thought Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

nunya Posted November 24, 2016 Share Posted November 24, 2016 That's not the point, need the wagon! four doors for more... well, you know. Grocerys! As stated, you would probably be better just getting it running then selling/trading for a 2wd. It's not so much a "can't be done" thing as just a work smarter not harder thing.
