When I do finally get my lights installed it will probably be used mostly for spotting black bears in here where we live,as I haven't been 4 wheeling with it since I bought it. It's weird back home in NY we went 4 wheeling just about every night after work and at least one day of the week end. Probably cause no one near by to go with.

Next time I see this guy outside I'm going to stop and ask if I can take some pics, the trucks I've seen that he has built are definitely not big dumb mud trucks.

beat the crap out of the piece of crap starter to get it to start when I got stuck at the supermarket after work today !!

If you look on Autotrader.com there are hundreds of 2wd's and only a few 4wd's

The exact one i would get if I could find one reasonable, with a manual tranny

I ran those exact UCA's for many years in my old harbody, cranked up with 2 stage torsion bars and body lift running 35's at first than late 33's, never had a problem getting the truck aligned, just depends on who does the alignment, luckily a guy I graduated HS with and his father owned a body shop/alignment place, and my HS friend always did my alignments.

The original aftermarket UCA's were stock arms with a ball joint spacer welded in and the bottom of the arm fully boxed, no they don't correct the angle but that's how they were before the tubular ones became available.

I don't think that light bar would work on the modified x rack on our pathfinders being the front legs are cut down, I may be wrong but I don;t think so. Also those KC's are to small for my tastes ! LOL

Yeah Yeah, it's early, we'll let it slide this time.... LOL

I thought coil overs would be expensive. There is a guy that lives not too far from me that does all kind of custom work on trucks out of his garage and I noticed all the trucks he builds have coil overs, so far I have seen a brand new Ford crew cab running 2.5 ton military axles and custom aluminum semi wheels with very large tires, the same truck has the largest Mickey Thompson tires available on it sometimes, 54's ?? I've also seen a custom "C" channel frame built S-10 in the driveway, again running 2.5 ton military's and big tractor tires over there. They do all their own tube bending and fab in the garage. I ran into the owner of the ford one day at the auto parts and he told me the guy is a Cummins mechanic. I was parked next to the Ford in my sentra and could see straight under the truck sitting in the car !! From what I've seen he does excellent work. sorry back on topic

the X used the VQ33 up to 2004 and than went to the VQ40 in 2005, the pathfinder had the VQ35 in 2001

4 or 6 cyl?

So in doing a SAS what's everyone's preference up front, leafs or coils?? I would want to do coils or coil overs personally.

If your having a problem with any Warn product just give them a call or e-mail them, they are very good with customer service. I bought a pair of manual hubs from the junkyard (Warn) and when I took them apart to clean them I noticed a few parts were worn out, I e-mailed Warn even telling them I bought them at a junkyard and the guy asked me what I needed and sent the parts out FOR FREE!! Can't beat that deal great customer service and standing behind a product that they knew I did not buy new !!

Wish I would have kept my Hardbody !!:

if I can't find what I need from home depot or Lowes (across the street from each other ), I'll snoop around at work I also was thinking about mounting the black light bar with the angle facing forward instead of how it is in my first pic above, kind of like a little ramp or fairing in front of and below the lights ?? I'm not sure yet, once I can get it up on the rack I'll play around with it some and take pics of both ways.

trying to find a piece of steel to go across the bars, called one surplus metal/plastic store and the guy was out of his mind with his prices. Was going up to home depot today to see what they have. Looking for 1/4" thick by 3" by 4' long.

did some preliminary measurements in the cargo area to design and build a storage/amp rack platform.

Thanks I need it with starters, only luck I've had in the past has been none and bad !! LOL

update, found a company in Conn. that has access to 2 of these new Bosch starters so I just ordered one, good deal I think they had a 10% off code for the fourth of July Holiday so got it for $104 delivered brand new. Hope this will be the last I have to deal with the starter !!!

they look really good !!

The first time I had my AC repaired in my sentra, new reman compressor, drier and expansion valve, system vacuumed out, recharged with R134, using gauges no machine, the AC was cooling down to 32 degrees as tested with a digital infrared tester. On the drive home I wished I had a sweatshirt !!

Most people keep records of when parts were replaced, Nunya has to keep records of which part came from which parts truck 3 vehicles back !! LOL
