Wonderful. Add slipping transmissions at <50,000 miles to the list of things wrong with that truck already.

BOG BOX KILLER!!! JFWY, I work at a tiny General Merchandise store that's been in business for 50 years (mostly a hardware store with other things like a small contract-unit USPS office, outside decor, BBQ's, sh!t like that) There's only 8 of us who work there, including the owner. But we're sucking recently because of the BLowe's that opened up right down the road and the HD that's another 2 miles away from the BLowe's and the Wally World as well. Not going to be in business too much longer. Support you local Mom and Pop shop!!

Nice. I'll take a look for that hole, didn't know there was one there...we sell lot's of that shelving at the store I work at (a Hardware store) along with all the other parts too.

Is the plastic relatively strong? Did you drive a bolt through and secure it on the other side of the plastic with a large washer and nut? I've thought about doing the same thing (b/c of the X guys as well ) but wasn't sure about the strength of the plastic. But you've wheeled the hell out of yours haven't you?

Get one of the wire shelves with the lipped ends. IIRC the lips have different heights to choose.

That looks great...it's like what the X guys do, only they already have enough stock anchors to use... They're lucky; because they already have the anchors that are so spaced apart they can use bigger racks. Man I love that mod.

Quote of the day!

They have discs??

T-BELT!! Rust, hoses and belts cracking, ALL fluids should be done when you take ownership of it, plugs, cap, rotor, etc. etc. I would basically give it a full servicing if I were going to take something from a dealership with mileage like that. I can't even believe a "dealership" is selling something with those miles...around here that would be 100% auction material. All ready-wearable parts should be, at a minimum, inspected by yourself or a mechanic you trust (not the dealership, their "clean bill of health" doesn't amount to squat)

Jesus man, come one...you're always the first person to make that un-original, over-used comment. Whatever makes you happy, I suppose

02 02 02!!! Haha, just makre sure you find one with a LSD...it'll help you out from time to time. Wish mine had it! Oh yeah, and go green BTW

Off the top of my head I'm not sure, but IIRC the owners manual has the locations of the adjustment screws.

Are these stock bulbs? They're garbage if they are. R50's suffer from poor visibility. I'd simply toss them and upgrade them and see what happens. I know when I got my '02 (in '06) the first thing I did (after almost running off the road in the rain at night because visibility was so poor with the stock bulbs) was toss in some plain Silverstars and have had them since. There's lot's of brands to choose from.

copy cat

You can tap into that power wire too, as well as the ground wire associated with it (that's what I did)

Here's mine, though, wasn't as snug back then. I've since cut a piece of plexi glass and painted it black, to replace the cubby piece that can be seen in this one.

Yeah, this thread combined with the other one "Pathfinder Crossover". Yikes.

R50 owners can also look at it as a step in the right direction, seeing as we won't be the biggest car-based SUV's in the Pathfinder lineup anymore

If you have AllMode (which you do b/c you have an LE) Trainman's got a great pic. of where he stuck his radio which you could do too. I stuck mine in the cubby a the bottom of the console, but IIRC yours is a bit different. Use a magnet mount if you don't want to drill in the roof, or get a door jam bracket and put it in the trunk. But what Pezzy said is probably your best bet. Just search this forum for CB's...there's a lot of threads that have already been discussed with pics. from various members.

And this surprises you why? Do you forget when platform Pathy you drive? Technically, this has already been done, from 1996-2004

There really aren't many (if any) true to their off road roots vehicles on the roads in the states. Sure everybody will claim that theirs performs admirably against anything they throw at it, but the truth of the matter is, soccer mom's buy FJ Cruisers, with locking diffs. and all, sports "heroes" drive H1's all dubbed out, Heeps are a joke (and recently becoming somewhat of a bling-mobile, at least that's what guys around me are doing) and, with the exception of MAYBE the Xterra, Nissan doesn't make a U.S. vehicle that's MADE for trails and not pavement. There's no market for them here. We have interstates with asphalt, not mud highways like the ones Iron Locust posts pictures of. The majority of people will never make it to Moab, and think hitting the spillway puddle on their lunch breaks and splashing a bit of mud on their doors is "off roading." Some vehicles are just inherently more capable than others from the factory. For what the average overweight, in-debt, 2 car garage owning American father of two kids who are addicted to video games uses the R51 Pathfinder for, it's perfect; pulling a trailer once in a while, shuttling the kids to friends houses, and hitting that familiar spillway mud puddle.

WOW! Great gift! That looks really good. I want to get my hands on one of those now

Very politically put...I agree 110%

Yep you're right. And then there's been a lot of pics from people who've lost the heat shield under the front seats created big hot spots. At any rate, it's good of Nissan to take care of the situation.

That NPORA member, maybe 6-8 months ago (can't remember his name) who's WD21 caught on fire...he posted pics of it as well, a white one. Was this what happened to him?? I've never heard of this issue before.
