  1. I nearly caught a copper head (venomous snake) but could not bend down quick enough to get it. :( Only just missed it. It would have been a nice picture.

    Man, i wouldn't be playin with copper heads. we have a ton around my house and they are not very fun, lol.

  2. man, all i listen to is country. "mud on the tires" and "not as good as i once was" are super old and very overplayed. when im going through mud (which i do alot), i usually dont have the music up very loud since im tryin to pay attention to what im doing. i do have a system though, so some rap always works.

  3. i got the 31 x 10.5 r15 dayton timberline mt's! they do pretty good, i havent been stuck yet where my buddy with a z71 with some maxxis big horns (i think) got stuck up to his axle. he got out and i went right through it. so they haven't failed me yet. the only thing i could change would be the ride noise. i wish they were louder! my other buddy has the 285/75/16 timberline mt's too and hes gotten through everything thats been put it front of him.

  4. Hey. i was driving home today, parked the pathy, wenti inside and came to get back in the truck to drive. as soon as i hit 35 mph, i hear a loud clutter sound (the sound you hear when u let your tounge roll off your teeth real fast, sorta like when a rocks stuck in your tire), so i come off, take off the wheel and see that on the compressin rod, the collar (?) is broke in half. in the haynes manual, page 11-10 theirs a diagram on the bottom of the page, thats where i got this from. its the collar right before the frame. i am not sure if this is causing my problem or not? any help would be appreciated. sorry for no pics, but my digi cam has no batteries :angry:

     

    if thats the problem, do i just need to go to a junk yard and get the part or is it safe to ride with it like that?

  5. i was looking at a 4runners and jeep cherokees.. (i had the money in hand for 94 4x4 cherokee), but those deals fell through. so i posted a wanted ad on craigslist and some college kid called me that night wondering if i was interested in a pathfinder. i was like what the hell does a 88 pathfinder look like? so i got on car domain and the first one i saw was 88pathy's and i was like hell yeah, ima get that thing and jack it up. so i called him back and we set a time and date to meet up. i had to drive almost 3 hours to meet him. but for 950 bucks, i cant beat it. i'd only driven a 5 speed a few times, and this was just super easy to drive. the looks are OK. i like the looks of toyotas, but hey, im the only guy in the parking lot at school with a pathfinder.

  6. i actually like jeeps. dont get me wrong, i like my pathfinder, but i actually was about to buy a 94 4 door 4x4 cherokee. i test drove that thing and loved it. the engine had about 190,000 miles on it and it still drove great. im not a big fan of wranglers nor libertys though. i guess like somebody said above, EVERYBODY has a jeep.

  7. or you could go to like advance auto parts and get them cheap. i used to break 3-4 motor mounts a month in my taurus. the process was real easy. i think i jacked up the oil pan, then loosened front and rear mounts and jacked the engine up, then replaced the broken one. im not sure if its the same on a Pathfinder though.

  8. haha wow. maybe one day i'll bring all that stuff yall mentioned. i just usually bring a shovel, a come along, 2 chains, a nylon strap, my cb with a 8 foot whip, cell phone, and plenty of fluids for the pathy to keep moving. also, i usually go with a friend that has a truck or suv that is as capable as i am. hopefully by the end of the summer, i'll have a winch.

  9. well, im starting to get really pissed off. i have a 88, and i dont know if it keeps flooding out or whatever, but earlier i left work and i couldn't get it started. it wouldn't go above 500 rpm. it would just putter and cut off. well after 45 mins of this crap, i finally get it going. it did the same thing to me yesterday. i know i had this problem when i first bought it so i replaced the air filter and fuel filter and i put some gas treatment in it earlier. is there something im missing here or what? has anybody else had these problems?
