Of course I took the easy way, and bought myself a 93 XJ Sport with Rusty's 3" lift.
The timing belt broke on the Pathy last week and damaged some valves. After checking everything else that needs to be fixed on it, I started to hunt for a Jeep around the same cost. It didn;t take long to find one that was setup the way I want. Only thing I need to do is treat some surface rust, and figure out what to do with the rusted rockers.
OK, harass away. I thought this over and this is what fit for me. If I had the extra time, money, and storage space, I would keep the Pathy and turn it into a trail rig. Unfortunately that is not possible.

I recently had some starter issues similar to that. I ended up hitting the starter with a pressure washer getting all of the old oil and grime off of it. Now it works fine.
Now if only the rest of the engine was fine. :sniff:

OK, while cruising on the highway on Sunday, my timing belt broke. I have already replaced it, but when I started the truck up it was running really rough. After some testing, I found that I can remove all the odd numbered plug wires and it runs the same. If I try removing one of the even number plug wires, it won't even start.
I figure I have some belt valves on the on the passenger side, but is it possible that I somehow miss timed that cam? I checked the all the timing marks, but is it possible I somehow still have it out of time where only one bank of cylinders is correct?

I use it, but rarely. Most of the time it is front windows down, sunroof popped up, and rear vent windows open.

Try to hook up with these guys: Berkshire 4 Wheelers. I have gone on 1 run with them so far to Coy Hill, and am setup to go to some private land that they have access to in Western MA this Sunday. They are mainly Jeep owners, but I got to prove to a group of them what a Pathfinder is capable of.

You definitely came to the right place. A bunch of us have switched over from the street thing to the offroad world. Now lets see some pictures of the Pathy.

Welcome from a fellow CT Yankee!! Where abouts are you? I am down in southern Fairfield County. We should get together sometime and see about fitting those 33's on. I have an '89 that should be able to clear 33's and all it took was a cutting wheel, and rear springs.

Welcome aboard. Nice clean looking Pathy. Now go get it dirty. -bounce-

People around me just refer to it as a truck. All of the people that know me know what it is, and the ones who have referred to it as a Heep know not to make that mistake every again.

We watched the fireworks in our town last night, and they were the best they have ever been. Nothing beats hanging out with a few good friends, eating, drinking, and watching some fireworks.
Tonight I set off $40 worth of the legal fireworks for my son whose birthday is tomorrow.

I do it for the relaxation. All the stress and drama in myself and around me disappears when I am out there. I also love pushing the Pathy to the limits and showing fellow non-Pathy wheelers what the old girl can do.

Here I am doing some spotting on MaBell.

My wife drives our 2004 Honda Civic coupe, and my work vehicle is a 2005 Chevy Express 2500 extended van. I'm glad the company pays for maintenance and gas on that one.

Thanks everyone. I actually spent most of the day sleeping since I am sick. Then I decided to get up and wash the Pathy and give her a quick coat of wax. Only part I didn't do was the roof since I didn't feel steady enough to climb a ladder.

I just swapped in the 1990 Maxima 90 amp alternator. Only issue is swapping the pulley, which I forgot to take off my other pulley and ended up grinding the new pulley into a V.
-
mine is an le and I have he same one you do installer
OK, so maybe it was just a factory option.
Anyway, the point is it is a stock Nissan brush guard. -
Mine is 100% stock. It was a factory option that came with the SE I believe.
-
The stock alternator on my 89 was 60 amps. I just upgraded to the '90 Maxima 90 amp alternator. Only an extra $10 and I just needed to swap pulleys.

Nice deal. Looks good. Shoot over to linxc.com for some wheeling on the island.
