Ask anyone here who's put gl-5 in a w/d21 tranny. Simon comes to mind.

The 97 will run on regular gas just fine. You could also fix the 93's frame rust.

I haven't cut any metal on mine but maybe my rim offset is different. Man whoever had that truck before you butchered it, glad you're going to fix it right. Could also take those things off the doors lol.

Looks good. I have a few suggestions but they are just what I would do: -Move the rear bumper up to compensate for the body lift -Ditch that brush guard, it looks like its off a chev or something. -Do a 3" SL so you don't have to cut out so much metal

10 miles? Really, that is like 16km, which is not far at all. Hell I'd bike that distance if I had to.

Yep in Ontario you can get a fine and if you are so unlucky to have the smog police pull you over, they will force you to take your truck off of the road.

I would look into the MAF sensor wiring at the connector, it is common for it to get weak and have this kind of problem, see if wiggling the wires helps.

Mine does that when it's really cold outside. Other than that it drives fine, so I chalked it up to 240k miles and 16 years of use.

When I was looking at the duratracs, the CT website said 218 per tire, installation included, balancing extra. Whatever. When I got there, buddy at the counter tries telling me they're 345 a tire!! I said no no no, look on your site, they're listed at 218 each in the 33x12.5 size. Turns out I was right. I only had to wait 1 day I guess they had some in the local warehouse. Maybe they are more expensive in BC than Ontario. Our winters are a bitch and I've already tried them out on snow/ice covered trails and they're great.

It wouldn't be a big deal to me.

Hey Steve, I think you should translate your website into french before the language police threaten you with a huge fine.

What I did was let the truck run for ten minutes so the pipes got hot, came right out with a wrench. Don't burn yourself though.

It might be that. My dad had his r50 timing belt done at a shop, and they installed the belt a tooth off, I couldn't get it to run right no matter where I set the distributor. Eventually I tore it down and found the timing belt to be 1 tooth off. It ran OK but at idle it would start to run rough, it really bogged when the shop gave it back and they claimed something else was wrong, yet I dropped off a perfectly running truck I would pull that and check, and throw a new timing belt on there while you're at it.

I got mine for 218 a tire Got them at Canadian Tire, that price included install.

When you set the timing are you sure you're reading the crank pulley properly? If its at 15 the pointer thing should be in the middle of the 4 marks or if its the 5 mark pulley its on the middle mark. Just throwing that out there.

The KM2s, from what people who've had them have told me, suck in the winter. I would go with the Duratracs, bfg AT, or if you're rich and can afford 2 sets of tires, an actual winter tire.

For what its worth I have the duratracs in 33x12.5 and they've been pretty good in the snow/ice so far. Though your gas mileage will suck and the truck will have no balls (downshift on every hill if yours is auto).

So that altima fan setup is pretty much bolt on?

Which is not that difficult at all. For what its worth I am running a REMY gold alty (for a maxima) and it has performed perfectly, even off road.

Take the bolts out of the striker for the hatch and put 2 washers under the striker and bolt it back down. That will fix the light problem. For your lock, it could be a couple things there are some platic clips (they like 79 cents for new ones) that can break. Taking the panel off and looking inside should show you what is wrong. I've never had issues with my power door locks so I can't help there. Good luck!

In the FSM there is a wiring diagram, check in the garage section of the board. If you don't feel like fixing it the right way you could always just pull the bulb.

actually the filter is more for air quality and less dust inside the car

he thinks pine needles penetrated the evaporator and let all the freon out. makes no sense to me

Mine has 240k miles and is still original.

They are owned by the same company but they are nowhere close to being the same shock. Monroe is a economical replacement while rancho are more for work/offroad vehicles.
