Different manufacturer's tires measure differently. My 285/75R16 should, based upon the math, equal 32.8" high. They're actually 33.5-33.75" tall.

The WD21 can be squirrely in slippery weather if you're not careful. Believe me. I'd say the R50 is a lot safer on the road, and easier to control....comparing the 2 in 2wd.

Here's why... Driving a locked, or heavily LSD'd vehicle in 2wd on slippery surfaces actually increases the probability of the rear end kicking out in turns. On road manners take precident over off road ability. Yes, a locked or strong LSD equipped vehicle will get going faster and with less wheel spin than an open or weak LSD equipped vehicle, but that is far less of a concern than control.

This is true. 230lbs vs 130. WD22 Xterra shares the R50 LSD.

Click the links and READ. Don't just look at the pretty pictures. There's a button on one of the links that says "Join NPORA" It brings you to this page. http://www.nissanpathfinders.net/joinnpora.html You attach the pictures there directly.

By the way, doing a BL will do nothing to further ruin your CV's as the suspension isn't touched. and x2 on what Cyril said.

Yep.....those are the holes most folks use.

99.9% sure it's not the fuel pump. I'd be inclined to think it's the sending unit. However, are you SURE that you've got spark? I had a melted wire that would cause intermittent starting/running issues that ran to my distributor. I spliced in a new one, and I've been fine since. Might be worth a look at your wiring near the battery. **side note** I didn't have time to get that pump out to you, but I will get it out this week, in case it is your problem.

could be a bad hub as well, or bad wheel bearing.

I never have, on either of my 95's. That said, I don't know that I've ever locked up the rear wheels, unless in 4wd, which disables the ABS anyways.

lug-centric for my 33's here. NO problems My winters are stock Legos, therefore hub centric. Adapter rings work okay, however, they sometimes stick to the hub, which can be a pain if you are switching rims and forget.

So, winter driving, and hard braking, could cause warping correct? I'll leave that to everyone's imagination. Agreed. I wasn't speaking in terms of the rotors becoming unsafe due to metal fatigue, but I was simply stating that fatigue would cause warping. With that in mind, fatigued metal (metal that's already warped once) is more likely to warp quicker than a new piece of metal. Not to mention, the turning factor, as minimal as it may be, adds to this.

Fair....what say ye in regards to metal fatigue? Warping, and constant heat weakens metal, no?

This I don't believe in. If the metal is warped, making it thinner by turning them, is only going to make them warp quicker the 2nd, and subsequent times. I replace only. That said, I had original rotors on my old truck for the entire 320,000kms. They didn't warp at all, and I was able to lock up my 33's with no problem. My current truck needs a little love in this department, as my brakes aren't quite as good as the old one was.

Sounds like a good idea. Would these be street legal?

Sounds like FAR to much work, when the problem can be solved with new rims.

The tires rub on the strut at the "spring perch" area.

Yes, and the piston was still in the caliper.

Very cool. Let us know how it works out!

The shims are for nothing but noise reduction. IT's fine to leave them off.

Yes....same arms, powder coated. Pezzy's got it right.

They are correct. They'll give you 3". It is totally dependant on how high you crank your t-bars. The 2nd link B posted has the entire roughcountry kit for the HB, and it includes shocks, which will work for your truck, and from what I hear, they get good reviews.

4x4parts UCAs are no different in dimensions than stock. Therefore, they do nothing to assist with alignability or ball joint angle when you crank the T-bars. They're built strong enough, but they don't serve much purpose.

Check the electrical connections on the back of the cluster. That's the first place I'd look.
