What about the sensor? Would that be located in the x-pipe then?
-
Seems quite involved to replace wheel studs. What a PITA.
-
Pull the disk? So I have to take it all apart starting from the outside, which involves taking out the hub? Or can the disk be removed with all of that intact and pull the studs out with the plate thing in its original position?
-
Well, after my wheel came off while cruisin down a dirt road, I've got some fixes to do. My wheel studs are stripped like crazy and I need to replace them. I got new studs, but cannot figure out how to get them out. Do I have to take my hub off and then slide the wheel stud mounting plate thing off? I'm so stuck. My search function isn't working either.. thanks for the help!
-
Thats what I was wanting to do was true dual exhaust, no y-pipe or anything. But how is it possible without messing up the sensor... hmmm...
-
I've got a pretty bad leak right under my tranny anyway.. and I rarely smell it.. haha
-
Haha very true.. it is a Pathfinder, who knows what could go wrong... the tires might fall off!
-
Yes, but it's after the collector, isn't it?
-
I wonder if it would matter if it were only reading off of 3 cylinders instead of 6. In theory it shouldn't... since the reading should be the same, yes? Just 2x the gas...
-
Son of a. So it's not possible to re-locate the sensor?
-
Is there any possible way to remove the exhaust sensor so the engine doesn't run crappy? I was thinking of getting pacesetter headers, getting a flowmaster welded on either side, and having it dump right behind the front doors, like what you see on Landcuisers sometimes. I want to do something new with my exhaust, something that not alot (if any) have. And since I don't do much city driving, or rock crawling... I don't think that exhaust fumes in the cab would be anything to worry about really. Anyone care to chime in with their thoughts?
-
I don't see how BL's are such a pain... I didn't have to adjust one thing when I did mine. Rad hoses stayed put, rad stayed put, shifters didn't need lengthening, gas filler and vent hose were fine.. only thing I had to do was unbolt my power steering pump and watch my lines.
-
That's what I'm thinking of doing, getting the new rods, and tightening the crap out of em. I don't have a welder either. It's getting SASed soon anyway, and I don't drive it that much either. Once I get home with it, I may have my buddy weld em in for me.
-
Yikerdoodles. That's bad news bears. Looks like I wont be getting the part today... on the way into town my dads F-350 diesel broke down and I had to walk home 5km in 30 degree heat. I hate my life.
-
How big is that hole supposed to be? Tight around the new bushing insert thingy?....
-
Replace the bushing cups with a bearing race you say? I don't understand what you mean. If I had a welder, I would have already done that, but I don't I'm gonna see if I can go pull the part from a Pathfinder tomorrow, and not tell them exactly what it is....
-
Yay, every auto wrecker here refuses to sell me just that link, instead want to charge me $90 for the whole control arm, and I cannot afford $180 for them right now... son of a.
-
I decided to not replace anything in my front end because this summer was supposed to be SAS. But, with the provincial ambulance company on strike, I cannot get hired, nor complete my Paramedic program due to practicum halts. Therefore, I can't get working as a Paramedic, and finding any job is proving to be nearly impossible. I've been going to school since December, so I haven't had the time, tools, or place to work on it, nor the money to have someone work on it. Glad I got 'er under control now... I just need to find new links from a JY or something. Blahhh! AND I have to replace the steel line for my rear pass. side brake.
-
I had a really bad steering wheel wobble... and I think I found the problem. The lower control arm link, that goes to the frame. The bushings were worn out, and the link was being worn through. Check that bushing?
-
I FINALLY decided to check what was causing the slight squeak in my front end.... good thing I checked it out.... And a pic of my half-door project. Yes, I know. Ghetto. I'm stressed about school/work/the government being retarded... and needed a way to vent.. so I decided I'd cut up some wood, imagining that it's our Premier....
-
They do look good, for sure. They're real... that's what ya get when you make REAL half doors! Mine wont look too too bad I don't think...
-
I just did half-doors out of plywood. Just have to figure out how to latch them. It's super ghetto, but whatever... I was bored. Once I have access to a spare set of doors, I'll chop em up and make them properly, like yours 87. I like the design of OSR's... Nice work.
-
Thing is, I need measurements and such since he wont be able to use my truck to build from. I need it for school every day, and can't get it to him so he can do some work.
-
I'm looking for some blueprints/auto CAD drawings or something for a front bumper. I've got a buddy that will build me one, but he needs detailed plans, since he wont have my Pathy to "mock up" with. Does anyone have some plans? I still don't know how to use the search function, sorry. Thanks.
-
Awesome, thanks guys. Yeah the signals are easy to take out. I took em out for my BL, when I relocated my front bumper. Thanks uncc, I'll get on that and see if I can make some more room to connect the wires. I found the real reason why my tail light wouldn't work. The bulb is fine, but one of the wires that connects to the bulb "housing" has come loose. Off to the Junkyard to get another one.
