94 Pathy

Looks nice Grim! Thanks for the pic!

That's what I've been thinking. I've spent the last two days & nights looking over things and prices on the wheels, tires, BL, labor and time...YIKES! I think the 33" will have to do for now until the money and body trimming factor is null... Thanks guys!

Hey GrimGreg, Have you found any attachments for that Coleman basket yet? Some kind of mounts for hi-lift jacks and tires and things? Just curious. I'm still thinking about getting one, but thinking about mounting things. I haven't found any type of mount kits yet....Keep me posted! Thanks!

Any of you know where I could get some new clips that attach the fender flares to the fenders at? Besides the Nissan dealership! Another question for all you that have upgraded to 35" or larger tires......When trimming the fenders, (for those who have kept their fender flares) did you bend a lip or is there room to bend a lip for the clips? Thanks for the info! I'm thinking about getting 35" tires after the 3" BL goes on. Wanting to keep the flares if possible...

I was thinking about mounting my Hi-Lift jack like yours Pezzy, but here is the thing..........If you want to get into the back cargo area with out opening the whole gate, there is no way the window will flip up. It hits the jack. Sucks A$$! So, I'm going to run to Super Target tonight and buy that Coleman cargo basket like I've been talking about in another forum. It's now on clearance here for $140.00. Can't really get anything like that any cheaper...Oh yeah, that's right, if you are Grimm and live in Ohio, you can get this basket for $99.00 on clearance. :furious: :oops: You SUCK Grimm! Just kidding man! Lucky you! So, now I need to fab some kind of mounting device on this basket for the jack and some lights. If anyone has any ideas, I would greatly appreciate them! Thanks all!

I'm getting ready to repaint some exterior items. Once I'm done, I'll take some current pic's for you all. What I'm using is "Rust-oleum Hammered" There are many different shades. The ones I've seen are the charcoal, silver/gray, copper/gold, and one other color. I prefer the charcoal look. It's dark and is the closest to the original gray that my Pathy came with. Like I said, I'll try to get some pic's for everyone soon. Good luck on your paint fabs!

I'll try to post some of my pic's of my interior. I've painted the dash, glove box, center console, door handles, locks, side mirrors, door handles, fender flares, rear spoiler, grille, spare tire holder, center caps, etc. the HAMMERED look! I've had many compliments on it. It's the little things like that, that sets your Pathy aside from all the others. Have fun with it! Don't for get the clear coat or it will fade!

:bow: Looks like someone had a little too much fun! What in the world is the cable from the winch being hooked up too? I'm jealous and here's one for you!

So any of you go with dual exhaust? I'm looking into headers and wanting to go with dual exhaust. I'm also wondering if I should run the pipes out the side just in front of the rear tires or not. I'm not too sure if doing that will interfear with the rock sliders once I get some? With some of you doing all this work yourself, (which I would love to do also) are you having to bend some of the piping yourself? I'm sure I would have too if converting over to dual exhaust. Have any of you bypassed the cat and ran straight threw to the mufflers? If I do the dual and the all new piping, would I have to have an O2 sensor in both pipes? Thanks for all the help and info everyone!

Derogate, Lookin' Sweet! that is the actual size? How much would something like that cost to fit darn near the whole back window?

:cool2: I like 88's idea w/out the periods. I do like the front windshield sticker and the rear. I would laso like the side stickers that were out and the option of having your member number put on them also. Count me in for a few also!

Yes, the squeaking is the poly bushings. They hold up better and longer, but yes, they do squeak. I've had my CALMINI 3" lift for a few months now and I squirt them with some WD40 once in awhile to help the squeaks. The color of the bushings are a lime green color. The UCA spindle slides through them. Any other questions, let us know!

-bounce- -bounce- LIKE A GLOVE! The front holes are done for the skidplate. Time to move on to the back :sniff: where the hitch bolts are. Thanks you guys for your help!

Thanks Greg! I'm on my way out the door to do some running and then all hell breaks loose!

:confused: Champher is threading, or is that like just the beginning ofthe hole is counter- sunk? I find all this very interesting, but no knowledge or education on this. I'm thinking about going back to school for this.... -bounce- Sorry to put you to for all this mumbo jumbo!

Thanks everyone! Precise1, Where I'm drilling is where the front of the factory skid plate is bolted, just under the radiator. The middle one is drilled out and the left and right bolts are busted, so I will be drilling those out. I've never threaded a hole before. Is it time consumming? I'm threading these by hand, or should I put the bit in a drill and go slow? I also need to do all this to the bolts that busted when I was taking my hitch off the rear to repaint. The hitch is crap, since the previous owner welded the tongue in and everything is rusted to be hell. Wanting to get a fabbed rockkrawler bumper with hitch built in. Thanks for all your help!

:help: Ok all you machining freaks! I'm drilling out some holes/broken bolts for the front skid plate. I used a 5/16" drill bit and now I'm trying to figure out what size of :confused: Tapper bit to use for the threads. Do I go that route or do I screw the threads in with Heli-Coil Inserts? I would think that making the threads permenant would be best. According to the Heli-Coil Insert kit I have, it calls for a drill size "U" (.368). I'm guessing by the size of things that my 5/16" drill is too small, so what size of drill bit is "U"? Thanks for all your help!

I measured from the frame and the front is alright, but the back is still of 1/4". You wouldn't think it would be that big of a difference, but it is. I'm still working on it though. Thanks everyone!

I'll be making a trip there tomorrow to see. I was going to go tonight, but decided to wait.

:sniff: :sniff: :help: I went out and took measurements of the Pathy. Here is how it sit's right now.....Pass front-21 1/16th".....driver's front-20 3/8th"......Pass rear- 20 1/2"......driver's rear-19 3/4". these measruements were taken from the top of the middle part (bump out like a hub) of the center cap. That's if you know where I'm talking about. The rear springs and somponents look fine. I'm going to crank on the torsion bars to get the front even, but the back I have no clue. The only things I have in the back is some beer bottles for refund and my off roading bag of goodies. I'm lost! The torsion bars are cranked pretty good & was thinking about letting out some of the passenger's side to lower that side :sniff: . Lowering is BAD! I'll keep ya posted on what happens! Thanks for all your help!

Thanks Grim! So, did your Target have them out for a while or what? Mine just put them out and they were still $200 as of yesturday. I'm going to have to make daily trips there to see if they clearance them. Can't wait for the pic's!

Lady's heel huh? How would you know about that Mr. Pickles? -alcohol- Just shooting ya crap! My driveway sits at a slight angle also, but I wouldn't think that would be the cause of this, since I drive the Pathy daily. Glad you got things figured out Duffman.

:secret: Search engine! Yes, the chassis are different! The only things the two share are engines, tires/wheels, front-end suspension, some models share lights, bumpers and maybe some of the interior dash components. That's about it. Why not build the Pathy back up? If you do build the HB up, put Pathy front fenders on and you can have it looking like the BAJA trucks. Looks SWEET! Good luck!

:furious: Duffman! You jinxed me man! I thought things were going good and I happen to look at my Pathy yesturday and :confused: . My driver's side from the rear was sagging lower than the passenger's side. :furious: :furious: :furious: ! So, guess what I'm doing tomorrow? You guessed it, figuring out my dilema. If you got your's figured out, let us know what you did and likewise!

:furious: Grim! What is the H3LL? $100.00 on clearance? They just got them out! Where are you from and what target? I'll have to keep my eyes open. I would snag one or even two for that price and turn a profit on the second one. Do you have it on yet? If so, how about a pic of the finished product? Thanks
