i couldnt say how but just remeber to becareful around that air bag. dont wanna mess it up any way cause you never know it might save your life later. if its still under warrenty its prolly a better idea to have them do it. you could call it safety related

lol duct tape fixes every thing

what are the specs on that?

yea it is adjustable, i found out it was the rear hatch switch. i raised it up but left it in the origianl position. i put some washers under the catch to raise it. now it works fine. after many nights of my truck being a rolling rave i got tired and tore out all the door switches and then took out the rear one.

you dont have anything leeching off the circuit hotwire? cause if you do its most likely pulling too many amps. or you might have a short, maybe some wire that has worn through the plastic?

pretty

its sporatic when im just parked, and constantly flickering on and off when i make right turns, i figure its just the switches aging

ive got this annoying a$$ electrical problem, ever time i turn right or blast my sub my vanity lights flicker on and off like strobes. the first time it happened is was like wtf? :confused: and now all i am is pissed :furious: cause its freakin annoying. i think its the rear door switch but im no sure, you guys have any ideas?

the light comes on sometimes if you give it a quick gas pedal push. what it does is adjust the power band at which the transmission shifts at. when its on it lets the RPMs ride high giving more power shifting later, while when its off it shifts gears in the most economical way getting the most milage

i never liked the orange crap either, they seem to be moving back to orange. moms sentra has orange clusters...

Yes Yes No if you got tint on the back you can get a plastic bag an some ammonia, spray ammonia on the tint and cover all the tint with a plastic bag. this will soften the polyester that that tint is made out of and soften the glue makin it easy as pie to remove with a razor blade. you could also remove the whole window easy, takes maybe 5-10 mins, just dont drop it!

i look forward to you write up and wonderful pics! have you already gotten an axle?

im interested in the same swap, i actualy found a Pathfinder excatly like mine cept it was a 93 and it has the axle i wanted with disks, but the guy selling it for parts wouldnt sell me the da*m axle :furious: he wanted 1500 for the whole rig, and all i really needed was the hood and left fender and axle. eventualy ill do more research on it when i get rid of this disease called being poor

do you have your own CNC machine or manual mill, or do you do this at work or something? just curious, cause my pops is a CNC machinist and makes parts all sorts of things for oil rigs and such. i just got hired on to a machine shop thats cutting armor plating for hummers with a laser cutting machine. i would ask them to make me a skid and a bumper and other things but i think its too early for that i really need to dust off my skills in auto cad.

plus strait sixes are inherently balanced, Cummings disele (god i cant spell) is a strait six and look at it, producing more hp and torque than comprable engines. supras produce mad hp when twin turboed, i gotta find this article of this crazy supra that had over 1000 hp at the wheels. its the best one ive ever seen, and i dont like them that much. as for detroit, the average CEO of those auto makers are there for about 4 years, so they have no real incentrive to do long term research or development. its more like they create fads in automotive. not really advancing but still doing something. Nissan has had such success with thier VG series engine because of their constant upgrades and research. for 10 years they have been ranked for the number one engine in reliability and overall preformance. if they treat the new 4L engine with the same rational and ideology i bet they will have a nother page in the books. the aztek is ugly bar NONE, come on what were they thinking?

i wonder what kinda gas millage he gets?

yea i need to fix mine too, it hates cold weather. funny story tho, when i first got my truck i help a family friend out to get a bed. she had a car, i had a truck. so i go to the place and they told me to drive around back, and the womans daughter tagged along with me, shes like 16-17 at the time. as im getting out of the car i say "stay in truck ill be just a min or two". well she didnt listen and i hear the sound of two doors close then a lockin noise. i was ah crap, she inanvertanly lock my keys in with the truck running. i was like ah crap, i handt even had it a week and my keys were already locked in. lol

well we have had a couple of dodges but never had any real problems with them, cept for a van we had that had the tranny go out on it. other than some problems with their trannys they build pretty good vehicals. the engines in the dodges we had were pretty reliable, no problems at all. on the other had we also owned a old 82 lincoln that was nothing but problems, transmission went out, then went buggy after a replacement, then the engine had uneven idles and bogged, then electric problems ect. just to many problems. we parked it at a storage facility and never looked back. almost every chevy my family has owned was a complete POS, cavaliar , never worked right from the factory. even the s-10s, my uncle has one that actualy dies going down hill. a green camero, engine problems that were never solved. thats why i nevered like chevy, i guess we were just cursed with problems with them. the one brand ive never really have problems with was Nissan and thats why i got a Pathfinder. my uncle in mexico has had 2 HB pickups and now owns a Pathfinder (2door version 4x4 of PWNAGE LOL). those HBs has been thru floods, droughts, loaded down with luggage, loaded with cut stone, dirt, sand, tons of peaple and that little 4cylinder just keep chuggin along. they are little fighters they are. people come up from south america and regulary get 2 or three of those suckers and tie em togather end to end and drive them all the way back. the first time i saw that i was like "wtf? " the one big problem i had with my pathy was the transmission, it broke but was still drivable. no codes came up and the reverse still worked. when i took it in the guy was like "how were you driving this?" i was like i dunno magic? myimpalasucks.com/

my nieghbor has a 2003 trail blazer that the company provided for him, very nice premium model. too bad it broke down. my buddy's pops had a 2002 chevy 2500 HD that was actualy kinda nice till it broke down and couldnt drive past 35, then when he got home it actualy couldnt make it up the drive way, my buddy had to use his ford to push it. there are some good things about chevy, they got a huge aftermarket, but other than that i wouldnt buy one.

for me its about 20 from that place so 373 for shipped thorleys is nice. i dont care if its nickle or ceramic still a sh!t load better than leaky manifolds.

mmmmmm that is so hott! those components look so pretty. i wonder if he painted the rear axle the same.

yay no more oil in the starter !!!! i gotta get that setup. do you have it set up with a oil cooler?

if you make skids for 1st gens ill definatly be buying some to cover the whole belly of the beast.

yea i ordered mine on friday and got it on tuesday. i too had a cheapo walmart strap we used it like 3 times and it broke every time. it had 2 hooks on it and each one broke, then we tied the ends to pull out a ford only to have it split in the middle and lash back.

yea misalined lamps are more dangerous than HID lamps any day.
