    Get hassled by the law

    in General Forums

    I've never had any trouble with mine, they stick out 2-3" and fling mud and water everywhere, no mud flaps or flares either. No troubles yet.

     

    edit - now that I think about it I have a related story.

     

    I was going for a cruise in may(ish) and noticed some kids with a pathfinder stuck in a construction lot next to a piece of machinery. Stopped to help them out and I guess some previous passers-by thought they had hit the equipment and called the cops. They looked at mine and made some stupid jokes and pointed out that I had a broken "link" (actually just the sway bar mount, as i have my rear sway removed). They never said anything further about it though, never got any guff considering the situation though.

    Bad Fuel economy?

    I get about 15mpg if my calculations are correct. That usually means no more than 400km/tank. I'm going to do some work when it warms up (change the plugs, maybe new wires, fuel filter, etc), that might boost my mileage a few points.

    I've been meaning to put mine together for some time now, I have all the plumbing but need to decide which way to go about it. Lately I've been thinking about having it come out of the fender near the windshield and instead of going all the way up the pillar, just have it stick up 6" or so and cap it (similar to military type snorkels I have seen)

    Thoughts on 4.88's vs lock-right vs ?

    You could swap out to the 4.625s from the auto pathy rearends. Easy to find. I think you mean 4.90s hehe. I'm running the 4.9s out of an Xterra with my 33s. helps a bit on highway speeds.

     

    Good idea, maybe I'll find a set... I think I have the 4.3's now. Whats an average price for such gears? Also, is the 4.9 Xterra a stock setup?

    i hate insurance

    i was always under the impression that accidents in public parking lots are "no-fault" ie, you pay for your car's damage (or leave it scratched and dented) while the camaro owner gets to deal with buying a new door.

     

     

    In that case, I'm going to buy a $200 truck and smash it into some Escalades!

    Just to clarify...

    So, I think I will install some of my parts (bjs, steering, ucas) in the next couple days. If I install my RC UCA's, do I have to crank the bars right away? Since I still have plenty of tread life left on my rubber, lifting more at the moment would just make it tippy without the wider meats that I will get when the current tires are done.

     

    So can I install the uca's and not lift or will this create alignment issues? The steering is going in regardless so I thought I would do it all at once.
