  1. Yeah that was my plan but they are bigger than what I had in mind, but at $16.50 each I'm not complaning. The only way I could have mounted them to the light bar was to cut my grill. That's why they got mounted to the bumper.

  2. So I just found a Chevy v6 vortec engine on craigslist for $80. I was wondering how hard it would be to put in my pathy. I don't know that much about electronics or engines for that matter. I was thinking of buying it and trying to rebuild it and doing a swap. I have a couple friends that know alot about engines and are willing to help. Any thoughts?

  3. went to JY and got a new center for the steering wheel and new taillight. While I was there they set fire to a van trying to cut the cat off. Then I picked up my new torque arms. They are not cheap $88 for both. Maybe I can talk the bank (wife) into letting me get new sway bars soon.

  4. I have installed a 3" suspention lift from 4x4parts.com (I think that's what everybody calls AC). I got the rear springs and the UCA's. After the install I had the pathy alined and now it sets like it has a rake to it. The question is would new torsion bars level it out and if so what would be the best and fairly priced ? I have to replace my bars and torque arms any way due to the pathfinder becoming airborne and landing hard. It stripped out the tourque arm and the only way I could get the old girl to keep her nose up was to weld the bar and arm together (I know heating the bar will take the spring out out it). I need to get it fixed asap !

     

    Here is the stripped torque arm.

    Fixed it and added a ram air hood.

     

    Then one night going home from my girlfriends (now wife) house I tried sleeping and driving. It turns out that I'm not to good at it. I don't remember a whole lot about the accident but the state police said that I flipped 4 to 5 times. I was ejected and tossed about 15 feet away from the truck. I was very lucky the only injuries I had was a small cut on my back and a huge brush burn on my sholder. It could have been much worse.
