Mac Monkeys are 2 funny! Worst part of Dell's is the preload of crap. I build my own personal machines; but order Dell's for work machines. Not bad pricing, as my boss is a cheap Bass Turd; so I get the cheap Dell Dimensions, and actually haven't had any issues hardware wise. Beats the crap out of Gateway!, now those were,are supa Crap (as is the Mac) can't really say what I feel about Mac's as Jim & 88 would beat me for saying bad "werds" again. E-machines at Best Buy aren't as crappy as they were. (extended Warranty?!) smack the Mother Board with a taser every couple years to get a free upgrade(extended Wrrty) Just CHEAP solutions that work for me at work where $500 is to much for a server! Haven't had to reload the 10 Dells or 4 e-machines yet (knock on wood!)

Crank 'em and get an alignment?

Looks great

I thought it had one also (until I asked about swapping last week) -thnkboutit- Dowh

Never had to look at it as it always worked without any issues, my buddie changes my fluids as he has a "pit" in his garage. I was raised in a UAW family so I was "learned" on ford n' chevy. When I bought my first Nissan (71 240Z) I was almost disowned. I got as far as the brakes and noticed the drums, been stuck in Algona, Iowa for 2 weeks doing server upgrades so I couldn't physically look at anything, when I get home I will have at least 4 days of time off to work on the swap. So if I asked the questions now I can just get it done when I escape hell here in Iowa. Thanks Again! Mike

Do I have to pull covers and count teeth or are their "model" #'s to tell me what the gear ratio is? It is definately wierd getting in without the lift! Thanks again guys (& gal)

Welcome back Jim, Hope everything goes well for you! as I'm sure it will. Glad to have you back!

THANKS! You guys ROCK, :bow: I will be swapping the rear axle and the master cylinder then. Again Thanks! I will be having some spare parts soon (In WI) My 95 manual's frame is 2 far gone for me to repair, so I bought the 95 auto. Love my Nissans! (Just sold my 91 Z TT ) no more breaking the sound barrier for me! It was the Pathy or the Z!

I just bought a 95 XE automatic, as my 95 manual trannie frame broke. I had to get to work and back, no time to disassemble and weld (above rear axle by gas tank) Question is my XE has drum rears, SE has disc: is it easier to swap out the entire axle as the drum style has a thrust block I believe from previous reading. Both are LSD, I have to put my rancho 9000's & 4" springs in back anyways. more than likely replace a few more parts while I am in there to keep her driving strait. Just making sure I am not creating more work for myself. I am going to POR-15 this frame as it is from a place where road salt didn't live!!! -bounce- MV

I think it has to do with the clockwise/counter-clockwise toilet flush theorum. -alcohol-

Wow< I thought mine was bad! Hit a pothole on friday and it broke the frame above the passenger side rear axle. I have about as much usable metal as yours :sniff:

No immobilizer anywhere in the manual, battery is toast?

Not available for my 95, damn!

Got it!

My throwout is new and it whines a little also, Get a louder exhaust and you won't hear it!

Thats the Pathy Joy, I might pay a little more in gas, but hardly ever need to work on it.

It's easier to pound the dents out of sheetmetal (joke)

I know my 95 is rusty framed (only behind the rear wheels) where the WI-sconsin Winter Super Salted roads ate at my frame. Recently lifted it and noticed it was only behind the tires as the car wash wouldn't hit those spots. But it is an excuse to get a welder!!!! Mechanically I love it, as it starts every day and runs fine!

Thanks for the heads up! Just tore mine a few days ago, and since I have 225,000 miles on them I will look into replacements.

In the process of doing mine also; damn salt!

Took me a minute on the sheep comment!? Hey Matt is that a SCION Van in your avatar?

Will definately take your advice, going after work to take a look at the local shop. Thanks Again. Mike

Looking at getting this welder this afternoon from home depot Lincoln Electric Weld Pak 3200HD Wire Feed Welder http://www.homedepot.com/prel80/HDUS/EN_US...dgnl.0&MID=9876 Sorry for the long linkie want to get this welded before the salt is spread on the roads!

I just lifted my Pathy and while "operating" I noticed what 250,000 miles of Wisconsin salted roads had rusted long holes in my frame(above rear axle that was behind wheels). I have read and searched the forum, but not much actual info on repairing. I glanced at the few frames at the local junkyards and they were MUCH worse. And retiring my beast before half a million miles is not an option! :Magic: I am going to weld the rusted frame as it is in a few spots I am going to purchase a new welder (figure I would spend more having someone else do it (and I have welded my 70 & 71 240Z's front ends together and that "uni-frame" was the thickness of a pepsi can)). I have por-15 and am cleaning the inside of the frame with air(120-150psi) and an air fitting with 3 feet of bendable copper tubing(think liposuction vacuum) :oops: I am running it in the inside to get rid of the pounds of rust, sand, mud... Questions I have: :confused: 1. I am wanting to treat the interior of the frame with rust treatment. (if I flood it with por-15 it will cost a bajillion) I am using por-15 on the external parts of the frame) any other treatment recommendations would be appreciated. Note: I need to weld plating over the existing metal 2. looking at buying a new welder, $400-$600 range, 120v, optional gas, wire fed. Just wondering what everyone uses? (I love this excuse to get a new welder!!! :cool2: 3. Any don't forget to's would be awesome (as in take the gas tank off...!) I will be documenting and posting pics soon. Thanks Again!

As 88 asked earlier "On Which side is your steering wheel?" -bounce-
