i want this. would he make more?

I just returned from a three week journey through my favorite bit o country. southern utah, n. arizona and the eastern sierras. I just wanna say she never lets me down. I love this truck.

are my cvs and front diff spinning at this point?

what gauge would you say the cable comin from the alt to battery is?

after a slight electrical malfunction this on this weekends trip, I've decided I want to clean up and upgrade my electrical system.first I wanna replace the factory battery terminals with something beefier. I have some military spec units on hand, but I need some new terminators. anyone know a good place to source quality cable connectors or terminators? specifically the a new termination coming from the alternator. also any good ideas to tie the large black connector on the positive terminal into such a unit?

not only will they rub ,they may explode!

nonone? wtf?

I see. I am still interested in mph and "trip" mileage. will handheld or hiking units provide this info?

I'm looking into getting a gps for the truck. not so much for city driving, but for remote trails and such. I also like to keep track of mileage and speed for tracking fuel consumption. anyone have suggestions?

cool thanks.

I need to replace the overhead dome light bulb but can't find what size it is. anyone know?

tin snips worked like a charm. case closed

any one have experience with this stuff? I just got a 10x10 sheet of it to make some gaskets for my exhaust. cant get the flange at the end of the headers to stop from burning up. anyway, its a lot different then I thought it would be. any ideas on how to cut it?

are the taper on the center link and the taper on the spindle the same? perhaps I had the TREs reversed?

anyone have experience with the AC unit . any pics?

BRILLIANT! I knew there was two different tapers but I just didn't crosss my mind! thanks again B! and I just recently became a caliper owner.

all right heres another question. while tightening the driver side inner rod end I noticed something odd. lets see if I can explain this. when it works correctly you reach proper torque and the whole in the bolt lines up with a slot in the castle nut, thus you can slot the cotter pin through. my replacement pulled through thus the nut bottomed out on the threads too low for the whole/nut/cotter pin engagement to work out. I then stripped the hell out of the threads lower on the threaded portion. this was a raybestos professional grade tie rod end. so I figured it was, perhaps, a faulty part. I then went to auto zone a picked up a MUCH lower quality part to see if it would fit. again the same thing. so what gives? is my center link beat?

I recently replaced every ball joint and rod end in the front end of my pathfinder. they all came with a bolt in place of the zerk as well as an uninstalled zerk. do you think it is advantageous to leave the bolt in place to protect the joint from mud and crap? or does the zerk provide adequite protection. or am I thinking too much.

where'd you get that bumper?

wheres this tag?

I'm thinkin about puttin two lightforce 170 on my bumper. anybody done this already? also at what point would these impede air flow enough to cause heat problems or is that a non issue?

I adjusted the bearing and can get no movement twisting the tire form top to bottom while its raised. I do,however, get plenty of movement left to right( steeering). the center link does a sort of twisting thing that I understand the HooHaa unit takes care of? how can I tell if the rod ends or idler arms are bad?

yodel! so I recently put some larger tires on my hoopty and I noticed that the steering feels a little sloppy. kind of a side to side kind of slop. like theres a bit of play. so I figured that I had some bad ball joints as she was lifted recently as well. so I started poking around to see whats what. I noticed on the center link there appears to be a really convenient mount for a steering dampener. now I've never looked through the steering section of the FSM till just now, and I'll be dammed! there is a steering dampener on the schematic! is this something that comes standard and I've been missing all these years? or perhaps only with the trucks that came with 31s, which I now have? now if I sound like an idiot don't worry.. I am

so I had my girlfriend drive next to me to see how far off my speedo is and it appears to still be on. strange.

whats the military buggy thing? I really want a rear tire carrier, mine didnt come with one stock.but I haven't found any really good options
