  1. Maybe you had low line pressure or something. I'd recommend taking the pan off and cleaning the filter.
  2. Weld up the rear end. Cheap, effective and when you SAS the truck, you just put new gears in and yer set.
  3. Try your local junkyards. They're VERY easy to take out and you can check if they leak or decompress properly right on the spot.
  4. Very nice. How is the frame?
  5. You gonna share it or what? pssd
  6. Standard 4 wire automotive relays rated for 25 amps or so will be enough. They're like $5 at most electronic stores.
  7. A few of my Xterra and Fronty friends have moved it into their glove box. I think the wiring is different, but a glove box is much easier to wire to than running cables to the back. For now I have two spare ECUs that I pulled out of junkyards and I waterproofed mine pretty well. I will move it later on when i have time, but I think it will involve cutting all the wires and extending them quite a bit.
  8. LFMAO and you had to go out in the pissing rain to write that entire plaque down!
  9. Call performance shops and get a price on custom or standard sized three core aluminum rads. They're NOT as expensive as most people make them out to be.
  10. sssh His CB has been wiretapped.
  11. What happens when you plug the antenna to the CB in first? Before pluggin' the CB to cig lighter?
  12. Crappy Tire has free tool rental as well.

  14. Yea.... it's the diff outta my truck that got welded up. I have no spares, but i'll be looking for an good price on an axle. I am not worried as junkyards are full of older pathies here. Anything blows and I'll have a new set within a the day if necessary.
  15. Well... the diff is back all nicely welded up. No more spider gears!
  16. Yea.... This is a third welded rear end in our little group of Nissan wheelers with three more at least coming up soon (not counting mine). I've driven the two of the ones that are welded and they're quite acceptable as soon as you remember to coast through anything resembling a turn. And yea... parking's a bitch. sssh
  17. I am doing nothing to the front diff... It's the rear one that just got welded. Lincoln Locker MotherSluters! sssh
  18. Yea i called the service manager at my Nissan Dealer and he said they just cut those buggers off. sly I got my sawzall last night from my place. Oh and my diff is ready for pickup.. I may have it tonight.
  19. Sign yer wife up for some advanced driving courses. It's money well spent. 99% of all drivers in North America have absolutely no driving education beyond what's (if) required for licence test. It's frightening but the lack of imagination and what to do behind the wheel is quite appearant in drivers these days. Sorry to hear about yer pathy and family but facts are facts... People can't drive.
  20. Dropped the torsion bars yesterday.... and took off lots of other stuff around. How the hell do I take out the pivot bolts... they're really seized.. I tried torch, liquid wrench... the heads are almost mushroomed from me banging at them with a sledgehammer. Is there an easy way to this? Or do I just cut the bolts with a sawzall and worry about getting the parts of them out when the lower control arms are off the vehicle...
  21. To be honest I have no idea. I have a custom L&P steering system and brand new balljoints and tie rods. So far, I was hoping that whatever i replaced so far was gona fix it... Quite honestly tires are actually cheaper than fixing Nissan front end. EDIT: yea i am NOT bitter with Nissan and their crappy suspension design.
  22. Yes... may drop the pan today depending on how much I hate the suspension work.
  23. I am gonna go to my Nissan dealer to press the old crap out. $30 is better than half a day of pain and suffering.
