Whats up guys..
I'm a nissan guy, and needed another vehicle. I picked up a 87 pathfinder v6 at the begining of the year as a "work truck." Well that's what I told the girlfriend. I did need it to get around after I blew the motor in my 95 240sx, and decided to finish that build (my auto-x car).
I bought the Pathy from a family guy who's wife was making him get rid of it, also his "work truck." It came with a trailmaster 4" lift, rancho shocks, 15x10 a.r. wheels and 33" bf goodrich mt's, warn manual lock hubs and a box of tow straps, a hi-jack, a manual winch and a matching spare rim and tire so I was off to a good start if I decided to go get stuck. I know a lot about building cars, but not much about trucks. Regardless, i'm hooked. I want to eventually do a SAS on the front, but that's not going to happen while it's my daily. I have a few mods in mind that will allow me to still take on some pretty tough trails, but allow me to keep it streetable.
Future mods for me are simple, but nessesary:
Calmini Heavy Duty Steering kit
Calmini Heavy duty torsion bars
Calmini Shocks
Lockright rear locker
ARB bumper
Need to find a safari rack if anybody knows who makes one
Fresh headers, Y-pipe, and 3" low profile side dump pipe
I keep toying with the idea of buying a new truck, but this thing is too much fun.
