  1. Heeeeeeey. Right on.... I got linked! I pretty much cover how easy it is to install the bracket in that link. And if you're having trouble visualizing what people are talking about with how it being out of spec affects things here's a video that the bracket fabricator, AK9849cy, made for people. Panhard Bracket Video. Dollar for Dollar, I'd pick this one up even if it cost more then Calmini's stuff. Better Built.
  2. Just so you know as well, The Clinometers for the 94-95 models are identical to the older models that fit on the square consoles. The only difference is they come with an Adapter piece that mounts to the rounded dash and as stated, its meant for RHD curves. That's just so you don't start looking for one. Also, If I remember correctly, There are still mounting areas beneath the Dash that the earlier models used to mount the clino's. I'm not 100% on that though. Perhaps if someone takes out the dash console and takes a peek inside they can confirm if they are still there. I've got a Clino here as well that I've had plans for but as all my projects have gone, its on stand by.
  3. It was primarily an option for Hardbody's not for Pathfinders so I'll bet that's why it says it wont match. Kind of silly that they didnt offer that to pathfinders as well. I also can't comment on whether it was available from 3rd party suppliers, I just checked with Rob on Nissan's availability.
  4. Wow Really? I've had 3 Pathy's and only this one had one. 1 side was missing entirely. I took mine off because it was limiting up travel while stuffing the tire. I suppose maybe if you remove one of the loops instead an keep the rest would be more preferred?
  5. Not necessary. Leave them off and save your money.
  6. I think you mean Hubs, not Front Lockers. Lockers refer to locking the Differential portion of the front drivetrain. As for the Hubs, I think the general consensus is that WARN manual hubs are a strong choice, but there are other options out there. Mile Marker makes a set as well with an equally good reputation. I know there are other companies out there in other countries that make other Products as well.
  7. Seriously..... Tungston.... How many times do you think this Forum needs to read your opinion on cup holders? I'm pretty sure everyone GETS it. You have a general dislike, hatred, loathing, WHATEVER, for all things cup holder. Perhaps you had an abusive cupholder in your family growing up, or perhaps you were ridiculed as a child by other children because you have some strange appendage deformation that looks like a Cupholder, whatever your problem be, we all get it, You're a little sensitive on the cup holder subject. And if you could care less whether a vehicle comes with, should come with, never came with, or was ruined by the addition of cupholders, that's wonderful, but you just keep repeating yourself over and over and over... and it starts to get a bit annoying really. All I know is I "personally" don't need to read any more about your personal preference on the subject and instead of Cluttering up every single thread containing the words "Cup holder" in it on this Forum with a comment about how much you think its pointless, stupid, unappealing, unsatisfactory, or whatever else you have to say on the subject, I vote that you be forbidden from commenting on All threads containing the words "Cup Holder" in it. If I come across as harsh its because I know you like to tell it as it is so I'm not going to sugar coat it.
  8. That was nice. Had me laughing. And for the record..... Its ALMOST there..... Just a few more things to do to get it on the road... Any day now... hahahhaha.
  9. I was looking into this about 6 months ago and According to what information I could gather, these were an option in HB pick ups early on and there are no more available to be purchased in the United states. There were 3 in Canada but when I called, they were already gone. The cost on those bad boys is over $100 bucks though. At any rate, I started looking into alternatives to cup holders after that. All sorts of stuff. The flip downs everyone uses, the Taurus single DIN tray, One from a VW Jetta that was a Single DIN, etc. But since the DIN's on our Rigs are at angles Low by the shifters its pretty much pointless to put anything down there. I started thinking of alternatives that would require very little modification and be cool, like these these. Swing out. Perhaps in a Door. It requires 4.75" though. or This cool Saab design. And lastly, Some sweet ass Engineering/Machining from these guys. Billet Aluminum Although the last is Spendy, I'm sure some of you Machinst Guru's can come up with a Great design for all of u3s for Fun and not Rape us at the same time. Right? At any rate, something to think about.
  10. Wow... I'm so happy I'm not that OLD yet. I still have 7 years to catch up to you B thankfully. And although its going to suck to have that Birthday, I know at least I can draw comfort from knowing your just about at 50! Happy Birthday all you old timers. Try and make this day a great one cause quite frankly, you guys are running out. I hope you guys can get someone too read this to you all so you get a chance to see everyone's well wishing. That is of course if you guys aren't napping. Oh ya, and just a reminder to take your MEDS.
  11. Please...... Hold it even after that.
  12. Dont listen to Tungston man. No one else on hear does. There's a reason he's got a -69 and counting reputation. Clearly he has no idea about anything you are doing and what the end result will be. At any rate. Thats a good start! Should be cool when its finished. As mentiond, I'd be finding a way to get some cup holders in there. Dont forget you can move the E-brake arm over closer to the diers side with a bit of minor fabrication to make more space for other things. Can't wait to see the next update. *shakes head* Tungston... Just couldnt help yourself? Had to spit your opinion on here?
  13. Which is a good idea before starting threads or giving advice to anyone. Always good to double check before hitting submit.
  14. Anytime. Welcome to the fun.
  15. I know it was talked about ago somewhere, but whats the stock filters CFM rating? That universal one from spectre was 450CFM. Although I'm sure its something you thought about Precise I'm Just trying to compare.
  16. Sick...... Absolutely sick. I cant recall if it was creek or another X but I know one of the Next Gen X`s was SAS`d and his main priority was to make sure that when it was finished, that all the electronics were still working properly and not throwing codes. That is an enormous feat from what I understand. All you guys have so much freaking knowledge in the Nissan SAS, fabrication department. I`ve said it before a million times, and I`ll say it again. When its time for a SAS, I`m driving to Colorado. You guys need to start a company.
  17. I'm not sure studs are legal in the GTA if i remember correctly. Might want to check with the MTO first. I think they are only legally acceptable for Northern Ontario IIRC. But I could be wrong so don`t take my word for it.
  18. Also, take a look at this Forum. Most of the locals get together for coffee meets and wings and stuff. Great way to meet other enthusiasts and learn a lot about your rig. Most of the member base is from GTA. Canadian Nissan Truck Club
  19. Send a PM to Morpheus on these boards. He's at a Nissan Dealership in Milton and the crew there has a LOT of experience with lifted rigs.
  20. This Video from the Panhard drop fabricator should answer your inquiry. If you still have questions after that, ask away. Also here is my step by step install of the product to show just how easy this product is to install. Install thread
  21. Hey. I know the mechanisms are completely different, but is it possible to utilize the hand Brake from under the dash on a hardbody to EFFECTIVELY work with the part of the cable where the Y joint is on the Pathy Rears with Disc Brakes? It would just be so nice to get rid of the handbrake between the seats all together and make/Use a Good console in that location. Any thoughts to this?
  22. Hey man. Welcome back. Too bad about the Pathfinder. Congrats on the 4runner. I still see another Pathfinder in your future though as soon as that one falls apart. Been a long time since you've been around. Stick around this time.
  23. Hey William. I just did my CV boots not too long ago as well. A member here discovered some good quality boots to use that are excellent quality. Here's the link to that thread. I purchased mine from Cardanic Driveline in Toronto. You want Part #'s 166-21 and 166-22A which are the inners and outers. I had no issues with these guys at all. I just called them and ordered them over the phone with Mastercard, called them a week later and they had been there. Here's the page showing the Part #'s for the years. CV Boot kits You'll still need a tool to get the new CV boot Clamps on properly so if you bring them to a shop, with the boots installed, they will probably lock the clamps on free of charge. Thats what I did.
  24. Ya that's one hell of a photo for sure!
