  1. I use photobucket a lot, and its really easy. Once you have selected a image on photobucket, select the links tab(may look like a chain link) and copy the IMG CODE link. Come back here and paste the link. You can only do one at a time, but its pretty easy to go back and fourth. You can also read this thread... http://www.nissanpathfinders.net/forum/topic/20781-how-to-post-a-photo/
  2. Went and picked up a car to "flip". Bought some smaller fireworks to entertain the boys. In the evening, took the boys to the demo derby races. That was a lot of fun and they loved it! There was a fireworks show afterward, but we headed home before they got going to light off our own. It was like a war zone the entine 20 minute drive home. My youngest boy kept saying "oh, another firework!" Good times. We may have found a new tradition.
  3. More space? Go down to one sub! Thats what I did.... Bolted the storage box down to the floor in the tie down locations.
  4. http://www.summitracing.com/search/part-type/cb-antenna-mounts/cb-antenna-mount-type/tube-bumper There are other types of tube mounts available. Try your local truck stop, they usually have lots of stuff available.
  5. http://www.nissanpathfinders.net/forum/topic/37565-cb-mount-location/?hl=mount http://www.nissanpathfinders.net/forum/topic/36497-cb-install-and-mounting-location/?hl=location http://www.nissanpathfinders.net/forum/topic/20030-newbie-cb-radios/ http://www.nissanpathfinders.net/forum/topic/37521-cb-radio-install-location/?hl=location Man there are a lot of these. Maybe time for a cb location pinned topic.
  6. Sounds like your loosing a speed sensor, or got some junk on a sensor. Just for giggles, have you checked the brake fluid level? that should bring the red BRAKE light on, but it never hurts to look.
  7. Well, a lot of members who have been around a while, may not respond only because they try not to clutter threads up with useless posts. There are not as many R51 owners on here yet so in some cases, you just have to be patient. Im not going to scream SEARCH as some will do, be its also a good idea. Many members have come and gone and cant answer your question, but may have at another time. With over 650,000 posts, some stuff gets answered a lot, others not so much. Again, not many members have the R51, so the info is a little more thin. Be patient. Many have found what they were looking for and thats what makes this a good forum. A little about me so you know I'm not blowing smoke at ya.... Im a master Infiniti/Nissan tech with almost 20 years of experience. I cant answer everything, cause its simply too hard to fix some things over the internet. I have a decent background with the R51, but i left Nissan about 2 years ago, so I'm not totally up to date. Whats funny is that I have 06 pathfinder in my stall as we speak.
  8. I would contact your local new Nissan dealer. Talk to the guys in the parts department and find out if cruise can be added on as a accessory. A lot of stuff like that is. We dont get the diesel option here int he U.S., so that might be the difference. If they cant sell you a kit, you may be able to find out exactly which stuff you need. Our forum here has a nissan parts guy, who works at a dealer in Texas. He has is own thread for those who inquire about parts... http://www.nissanpathfinders.net/forum/topic/18653-genuine-nissan-parts/page-53?do=findComment&comment=723745 You can also message him privately by clicking on his screen name(Alkorahil), and send him a message about what you may need.
  9. Sorry about the slow response, everyday life gets in the way some times. According the the service manual, the neutral switch should be further forward towards the transmission, and the 4wd engagement is a little further back on the transfer case. Some switches had connectors, others had what looks like butt-connectors connecting it. They both just pull apart. If the wiring had been tampered with/repaired, something may have been exposed, causing the short. Glad to see the fuse isn't blowing after you inspected them. You could cut them and put in some new connectors if needed to remove. http://www.nicoclub.com/FSM/Pathfinder/1995_Pathfinder/tf.pdf Page 9
  10. Try unplugging the transfer case engagement switch down on the transfer case , then engage 4wd. Does the fuse still blow?
  11. Have you had it serviced at all lately? Not being as cold sitting still is not that abnormal. It's a matter of air passing through the condenser. I would check for any debris built up on the condenser(bugs, trash, mud, ect). A hose and water will do wonders! Visually check the system for any leaks. Dirt will easily stick as there is oil in the system. Then I would go have the system professionally checked and make sure the pressures are correct.
  12. I was in a bowling league some years back with some friends, and during a game, in the 10th frame, with my second ball, I picked up a 4-7-10 split, then followed with a strike. That place went nuts! I don't remember what I bowled hat game, but I remember how excited everyone was after that.
  13. Well, it's actually this way now.... I used the 1-2in version .. http://www.hi-lift.com/accessories/tube-mount.html
  14. Looks good man! Is it just the photos or does the rear sit lower?
  15. Jim, I'm sorry. Not only did they steal from you, they stole from us. Something tells me it was someone local who knew you were gone and had been watching it. Obviously, it won't be sold whole without a title, so I will keep a eye out for those parts. The ARB would be the red flag, it's got to pop up somewhere. You lost it once and got it back, let's hope it will happen a second time! Worse comes to worse, it's only a vehicle and you can always get another one. Keep us informed!
  16. You and me both man. We aren't the ones driving around in expensive cars. Yet we do more work than anyone.
  17. I'm sure you dropping a injector. Only two in your rig, change them both and see how it does.
  18. So, what sold me on engine flushes many years ago, was doing one on a cadillac I used to own. 81 Coupe de Ville Fleetwood with a 368 in it(with that stupid 8-6-4 cylinder deactivation system). Anyway, this was my moms car for years, then it was giving to my little brother. I can't say it had many timely oil changes in any of that time. When I got it, it looked great, but ran like crap. I had done a tuneup on it about a year and a half before this, so I knew it wasn't spark related. I tried fuel system cleaners, induction service and fuel injector cleaning and made little difference. After sitting about 6 months my garage, I wanted to get out in it. I took it to work to change the oil, which again, was not in the best shape. I was a bit skeptical of the engine flush at that time, but thought, what the heck, why not try and clean things up(and a good opportunity to have a first hand experience with it). Upon putting in new oil and filter and firing up, it immediately ran better, idled smoother and was a ton more quiet. It was kind of smokey too and it was almost gone now. I had changed the oil before and didn't have this kind of result. The oil stayed very clean for a long time, even until the time I sold it about a year and a half later. I will say, yes, this is not for a super gunked up engine. With lots of gunk, you've got bigger problems. But, as a way to devarnish the lubrication system to stop buildup, it's worth it in my book.
  19. I've heard several of them. Haven't been able to get them to buy the fixe though. Seems like they all make that noise.
  20. So, did it have oil in it? I really liked using Consult. 3+ is freaking awesome and pretty quick. There are a lot worse tools out there(ford IDS, Toyota Techstream).
  21. I don't completely agree with this. Maybe on newer engines, but ours do just fine. I have done hundreds of engine flushes to Nissans and Infinitis as preventive maintenance. Any flush won't get everything out. But if you are going over recommended intervals for oil changes, it's not a bad idea to have it done/do it once and a while. Again, depends on what the chemical does to the sludge. I know for one, I have held a chunk of oil slugde in my hand and put it in mineral spirits from the flush machine above, and it basicly dissolved in my hand. I've have also done it several time to my pathfinder with no issues. It did quiet up my lifters though.
  22. Just remember, anything knocked loose can make it to your oil pan and possibly block your oil pickup. I've used and highly recommend a machine to do the flushing. Can't remember the name of the machine I used to use, but it used a mineral spirits to back flush the system and suck it out the drain plug. Oh yeah! http://www.envirolution.com/nvr_home.htm
  23. Not when that semi is broken! Also through in my new rear panhard drop bracket. I will have to update my profile and member page tomorrow.
  24. Got my eFan swap complete! Only been 2-1/2 years since I got the stuff! I will be adding pics to my member profile soon! No more roaring semi noises!
