Extreme90path

yup... it's a pain in the ars.....

haha... yeah.. I am specifying friends... but when she is ready I am waiting. She doesent want to date anyone at this point in time... and yes.. she does love to offroad... ahaha... lets see here, It was the 3rd time we went out together we went up a local trai and managed to get stuck ontop of a mountian, about 1 hr out of town and it was 1 in the morning. Bad manuver on my part... well lets just say it was blizzerding and the police didn't have a 4x4 on duty, and they just said good luck, so i called all the people I know, and got ahold of one of my friends dad's that lives 30 miles away, so he came and picked us up in his excusion... But he only went to the turn around... about 5 minutes walk... and lets just say, the next day when we went to go get the truck out every one got stuck, before the even made it to my truck. One guy and a winch, but he couldent get close enough to pull us out.... ahah... so a cat saved my butt that day... ... but yes.. she is an amazing girl...

Yes WELCOME!!!

also try and stay out of fifth gear... when towing 4th is a 1:1 ratio, and it is straight thru the tranny box, it allow a lot of unneeded stress to be eliminated in the tranny. (the mechanic that rebuilt my tranny showed me)

Also, I found a set of barly used Cooper STTs (32x11.5) for 450... I am also going to snag those... (i love those overtime hours )

oh, and today, I got my CB installed. I'll try and get some pics up, and I also priced the rear axal out of a 89 pathy w/ the 4 wheel disc... and I am lookin at about 250 ... so after my bl is installed and tires, I think I am going to snag that...

Thankyou 94. But actually, I still have access to my old one at the salvage yard and it has it, but from what I am told it is a major pain in the butt to do the conversion. Especially the brace behind the tail lamp... so I was thinking just getting one attached to the rear bumper when it get's built... so I dunno yet.. but I may go back out there and take a look at what it would take again... thanks!!!! But, no my new one doesent have the mounts, but my old one does... -Ben

I feel bad for all you guys... here in eastern oregon we don't even have to smog test...

probibly not, only because the standered is held for the year of the vehical no matter the engine... I would recommend getting a really good cat just to put on for the smog tests. Then put the orig back on later... but yeah, I am looking at the shop manual now... and yeah, I see here they also run a completly different set up on the ecm. They programed in a complete diagonstic set up for the EGR system (lots and lots of uneeded sensors), and all the other crap that's on cali's ... so don't know what to tell ya man... just hope that a really good cat does the trick...

My first 1990 had the 5th gear whine in it, and it was getting worse. So I got it rebuilt (worth every penny... shifted perfectly, and smoothly) but it did cause a cramp in the wallet for a while. (and I work a KFC so it was a big cramp) but still worth it. Changeing the oil viscosity will only prolong the enevitible, falure, and not by long. I would recommend having it rebuilt if at all possible, and by a respectibly tranny place. They are complecated little bugers, and it has to be put together perfectly or you will be in a @!*% load of trouble. But rebuilding the tranny in my first pathy was by far the best thing I did to that thing... (oh and I still have the main rear bearing out of it, and it is SOOOO pitted, it is insane... and the first one was basicly destroyed... so yeah... get it rebuit!!!!)

I couldent tell you for the autotragic, but I had my Manual rebuilt, (my first pathy) and it cost me 1500 dollars... but it worked empecable... but what I think is you should pick up a 91 or below, bucause of the possiblity of the rusting frame problem... so yeah... But heck do what ever you like... I just like pathies... that is why I bought another one...

Yeah, it is awsome...

NIN... BAD ASS RedPath88!!!! One of my fav bands... though right now it is Linkin Park - By Myself

Hmmm never seen those... I may look into them... ... thanks 88

Thank you much Trent!!!!

Just to clarify We are friends... ... but what... Not thoughts on the pathy?!!?!?! haha.

Finch - With out you here Lost Prophets just ended

I have found a little bit of rust, next to my rear wheel well, but over all really clean and my 90 had nothing at all. Mabey they changed there rust treatment in 92 or somthing. I dunno. But from what I know, most or all car companies treat the mettle for rust prevention... oh and you aint see nothin till you see a neglected 1966 IH Scout... I had on an ti was insane.. the bed completly rusted out... haha.. any hoo...

Ok... Well, I figured it's about time I start a thred on the new pathy. To start here are some ideas I have, and the progress I have made to date, and also kindof a tribute to the old pathy now in pathy part out heaven (AKA salvage yard)... First I never posted any pics of my White Pathfinder Finished.... Nothing too extravagent but It was a good start for my first pathy.... w/ virtually no experence with them.... Here are some of the pics of my original Extreme90path off road... and what not... some random crap... Like that stance Bath Time... The lighting... Survival Pack/ spare parts... need those bass notes... Some deep snow... though not stuck!!! This Ranger was lovin my pathy for a lil bit... The Back... I will miss you Mr. Pathy.... RIP... May your parts go to benifit a pathy in need.... Ok enough nestalga of the old one... time for the new one.... It is a Black 1990 SE... 150 k pretty clean... Mods to date: Headlight reset up (relays, lenses, bulbs) Bull Bar Warn Hubs (off of old pathy) Stereo (Sony Head unit, Rockford P1 sub w/ Rockford 1000 watt amp Off Road lights Replaced Heater Blower motor Exide Spiral Cell Battery Cat Delete Mild custom interior work (Nizzy emblem stuff, reapolstered center armrest) Mods to do that I already have parts for: Roof Rack Exaust 3" TM BL Mods to still buy: Snorkel 2-3" Suspention lift Tires (33x10.5 BFG M/T) 1/2 inch spydertrax wheel spacers Rear disc conversion/LSD 3rd member Rear Tire Carrier umm did I say tires Thorley Headers Sliders Front Bumper, and winch A/C repair Fantasy Mod: Infinity Q45 V8 Conversion Any help / recomendations are always welcome... soo anyways hopfully I am not doing this -thnkboutit- this ... pssd or this :oops: too much threw the project. Some pics of the newbie. (sorry no good ones as of yet)... well ok this one is good I like that stance too haha... oh, and Trent if you read this thankyou for savin my butt on that snow blunder... (look at my tires and the cliff I am next too...) Bad place to be. Well anyways for who reads and helps me with my current Pathy endevors, I want to thank you in advance... "Thank You".... Next project to tackle is installing the BL.

also another conversion set up I found... hmmm another audi/pathy owner... http://www.motorgeek.com/phpBB2/viewtopic....der=asc&start=0

I have to say I like the idea of the conversion. I have been toying with the idea for a long time, I am just not sure how good it will look on a pathy but I have an Audi 4000 that I am actively working on upgrading... and on guy I know already did the projector style hid lighting set up on it... and from what I can tell it is quiet amazing... Me Likey... but intill proper cash flow allows, what improved my pathy is: 1. Relay set up 2. Replaced Light housings. (old ones were fogged) 3. Silver Star Lights 4. Proper alignment (can affect light a ton) and this works for now, but at some point (depending on cost, I am going to do a hid set up). If and when you do it, you also have 2 options. you can go with a single style, which runs a cylenoid in the projector lens that actually modifies the light beam, so there isant a 2nd eliment inside or another light needed... or you can go w/ a duel set up to where it, runs an actual bright, and dim light... also you and or me will have to figure out a good way to replace the DOT light lense to something clear so that you have a guard against rocks and crap for the light, and make it look good at the same time...but anyhoo here is a linky to what I have found, and what I want to do... http://www.motorgeek.com/phpBB2/viewtopic....p=117968#117968 just my 2 cents....

Filter - where do we go from here

oh, and it is just one more reason to love pathys...

I love that vid. I faved it on my utube a while back...

I like my warns... but I have broke them too...
