So today was the first day it has not rained up here, went outside to get a better look at the damage and noticed my exhaust hanging lower than usual so I crawled up underneath and saw my resonator has a huge dent in it from the rocks I suppose. Then I noticed that the J.A. missing link is bent, also noticed a dent in my lower control arm on the drivers side but not too noticeable. Then I was looking at my CV as I just went out and bought one and it seems to be intact and ok, but the MM manual hub on the driver side is completely blown and cracked which explains the loss of 4WD; and I bought new wheel bearings and a bearing packer instead of doing it by hand this time which I figured helped cause it fail. So it makes fixing it a lot easier not having to replace the CV.

I have MM hubs and have never really had a problem with them, I just have to use lock-tight with with the allen bolts that hold the face on and check them periodically; but I run Bias Ply 34x10.5x15 Swampers and they vibrate a little more than most tires....

Thanks

eventually I will get lockers, I want a SAS then lock both front and rear.....

its a brand new cv..... only put it in about 5 months ago; I am just gonna replace it and step up my search on a waggy D44 for a SAS.

So I went out wheeling again this morning with some buddies on a trail I have only run about 2 other times and there are endless trails out there, I was doing a rock climb and got hung up and had to winch out then there was a hill climb with some stumps and I made it 3/4 the way up after the 3rd try. I just kept on the gas hoping it would crawl up the rest of the day and my CV on the drivers side snapped right at the joint, along with my wheel bearing started to make some noise on the way home so I need to take it apart and look inside. So looks like I will be taking it apart this coming week and fixing it.

Whats the final cost on them? And I would most likely get a custom Driveshaft made for only like $200....

order a skid plate from fluery's

a oil pan from a xterra 3.3 should fit.....

distributor.... just had the same problem not too long ago....

Devonianwalk - you are talking about re-centering the axle and in that case yes you would have to get new links and driveshaft made. DCGabel - in order to make it completely level you are going to have to take in account the sag the springs will have and buy some rubber coil spacers to put in to level it out.

Shift220 is the owner of KrFabs and those were the prototypes.....

update?

take it off and build one...... that happened to my lift gate after backing into a couple trees with my bumper

My buddies truck that was stuck:

rocker guards are essential when trail riding; they have saved me from alot of body damage,

Today was the first day I have tried to pull anyone but my own pathy with the new winch. My buddy was driving his 3/4 ton chevy and sucked in mud and blew his motor in the pit. I took a strap and put it around a tree with a D-ring and put a strap from my rear bumper to his rig and it pulled it out of the pit and 10 feet up a hill; I am very impressed with the winch and that my bumpers can take the abuse as well. I will have some pics up again soon but I don't know if there are any good ones as my buddies GF was taking them; hopefully there are some good ones. On a side note I peeled one of my light guards back while squeezing between two trees; so I need to take it off and bend it back to fit; the rocker guards once again saved me from body damage.

IT did help when rocking back and forth

there is some water in there....

yup

In the for sale section of NPORA by new4x4. Figured I would help him out.

This is where I got the info for mine. http://www.nissanpathfinders.net/forum/index.php?showtopic=28155

I guess you wouldn't have to be afraid of damaging it.....

I think it is $1000 max and that is if I dont haggle....... looks like it is just a trail beater. But one mans trashed pathy is another mans treasure.
