I got one on my 89. If you want it, Ill send it to ya. Make me an offer.

ok guys. I need your advice. I Just got a new Crossover and a new Extension Pipe. (all piping from the manifolds back to the Extension from the cat). I got them off no Problem, and the passenger side is really no biggie, But the Drivers Side i am Having a Hard time getting the stud and some of the nutz on. I got one of them on, and I know i can get the other, its just a Case of Gouing to the store and getting more, but that damm Stud is Being a prick. can i just use a Damm bolt there instead. I cant Really get to them from the bottom, unless it looks like i remove the front driveshaft. Any Idea's or anoyone do this before and have any thougts? I gave up cuz it got too dang cold and i was getting snowed on.. gonna have to garage it.... thanks!

Man, that CutAGasket stuff is SHWEEEETTT! Does a NICE Job in a Pinch!

Ok guys Check this out. All the Piping from manifolds to the cat, with gaskets, with shipping, 97 Bucks!! I CAN BEAT THAT WITH A STICK!! and From what i Heard, they are a Normal Part of A pathfinders Exhaust Problems. I have NEVER had a Pathfinder without Stinky Exhaust! HEHE. Im Exicted!

Oh boy. I sleep in my Pathfinder regularly. When i want to sleep in, or my Wife is bothering me. I go out with my Pillow and blankey and Sleep in my pathy.. Oh I forgot, I Drive it up my Hill in the Front of my yard First into the woods so there's not enough room for her to come and Get to me when im in it. Ahhh. Like a Vacation on wheels man. As far as head room, im 6 ' 2". Im grinding out my Seat Pins and Putting in a Pin with a hole for a cotter pin or something along those lines. along the same idea as the pins in the legs of a colapsaeable engine lift. it usually dosent bother me much anyway, i sleep with my head at the Hatch end anyway. I can seee the stars that way and lets me forget my wif...er troubles... hahahaha. Oh yeah. and a Twin Mattress fits niceley in there, but its kinda close to the celing..... And ive been doing this for about a year now........

I had the Exact same Problem with my auto. I found that the Best way to get it to catch is to Put it in reverse, Keep the Parking Brake and foot brake on, and Rev the motor. It Almost allways Catches that way, But Eventually you are going to break Something. You really should have it looked at like the Other Guys mentioned. OR go Manual!!

I reindexed my Tbars on my 87 before the motor went, and WOW did it make a GREAT Improvment in Ride height and stability. what i did was Get the Splines aligned where the Adjuster was out of the little bar at the Bottom and the Wedge it back together with a Long Screwdriver. then i ran it up with a Impact wrench. Brough that front end up about 2-3 Inches from what it was, and lost a LOT of Body Roll. Id Try it before replacing!

Well, MY thought would be to Align the Timing marks on the Crankshaft pully. THis should give you TDC on the Correct Stroke...

To 94: I got a spare Tank here if your Intrested.. the Skidplate is no longer... It was Turned into Floorboards for an 85 Nissan 720 Pickup.... Recycleing at its best! Allready Pulled and Ready to Go....

You mentioned that is quiets Down when warm? How about Replacing the gear oil in the Tranny. It May bee a Failing Input Shaft Bearing that might be Seizing up due to Improper Fluid Maint on the tranny, or High Revs in Low gears. I had an 87 Maxima that did the same thing. and 3 or 4 Days later, BOOM. The input Shaft Bearings seized and Threw something through the Top of the Tranny. the Hole was about the size of a newborn baby's Head. Just an Idea///

Then One question... Why would you purchase a Nissan Only to Convert it to a Chevy? I can Understand One wanting to Gain more power or Tourqe, But i just dont understand why you would want to put a Motor that will never Last as Long as the Body in the Truck? not to Knock chevy or Ford, but apples to oranges, Import Motors last Longer than MOST American Motors. Im not saying ALL, but lets loook at the Majority of the Guys on this Site 150-200K Miles and Still Rollin without any Problems. Im not trying to knock anyone, a Project is a Project and Much respect to that, But the whole challenge of building a Pathy up is to keep it a pathy!

Here's my two cents... My 87 did the same thing, Only at 3,000 RPM. I checked the CAS and the TPS, both were ok. After Messing with it for about a week, the motor Blew... Right out the side of the Block! (thats why my 87 is listed in the "parts" section HA), anyhoo, If you havent Checked your Crank angle sensor or teh codes, Do so. if all seems well, Ensure that you have Sufficent Fuel Pressure and VOLUME! 88path Knows the Correct PSI, and the volume test one might mention on..... good luck!

My Experiance has been as follows.. 1. you MUST jack the front end up so BOTH tires are off the Ground 2. Run the adjusters for the Tbars Out untill the Ajusting Screw Leaves its nut 3. Unbolt the 3 Bolts on the Lower a-arm. I found an Impact Wrench works best as Sometimes hand Tools cause the Bolt to spin VS the Nut 4. Slide the Collar Back onto the Tbar 5. Tbar should be Free. Repat on opposite side and remove the Crossmember.. OR. Follow 1 and 2, But... 3. slide the boot Forward on the Tbar where it Meets with the Xmember 4. Remove the Clipring that is on there.. 5. Slide the Tbar out from its Adjuster. I have Not been Successfull in removing the Tbar from the housing without A Torch or one hell of a lot of pblaster. I found taking the Xmember with the Tbars on it is easier. Cumbersome yes, but easier...

ahh. The question Arises.. I Drove the Pins/Bolts/whatevers out with a AirChizel with a Punch attachment on it. Replaced the gaskets and used Grade 8.8 Bolts to hold it all together. Then I coated te welds with Hightemp JB. All Good! my Buddy wanted like 50 Bucks to weld it, so i told him to go suck an egg..!

good Point. I didnt know where you were located! haha -alcohol-
