  1. Stage II eclutchmaster clutch kit US$200 with shipping to Chile Labor $140 Total US$340
  2. I tested the steering mod and it works great. No sign of damage and I gave it a real hard time. Very Pleased with the result.
  3. no idea... I just use the OEM
  4. Dunno why they don't work. You can do right-click, open in new tab. Or see them here Steering MOD!
  5. I posted this in my ride topic, but this should be here too. ENJOY! The results are VERY good. NOTE: If the pics don't load, right click, open in new tab I did what we call here in Chile "Barra Rusa" or "Russian Centerlink" (no idea why the name) You need to modify 3 things (VERY EASY): 1) The centerlink. Get your old centerlink and change the ends for 5010 high friction bronze bushings with greasers (US$50 the whole job). Make the bushings to fit a bolt a little bit bigger than the biggest part of the old end. Here's an example of the result (this one has no bushing, just the hole, it works too but with bushings it last forever). It's very similar to grassroots modification. 2) The Pitman arm and the Auxiliar Arm. You have to take them out, make a little arm on it to re-inforce and re-drill the holes to a bigger bolt size (same as centerlink). They should look like this. 3) Make an arm brace. Everybody knows this one. Then, you assemble everything and ta-da!!! END RESULT: NOTE: This pics are not mine, but I did the EXACT same job. I took pics with my mobile phone and they sucked hahaha. The result is AMAZING and I strongly recommend to put a steering stabilizer. I'm going to do it now because the steering is very responsive. IF YOU STILL CAN'T SEE THE PICS, GO HERE. THE PARTS IN BLUE ARE THE ONES. Steering MOD
  6. Amazing idea! Will try it someday..
  7. Is that the same as the Coolant temp sensor?
  8. I have the same problem... I have rounded dash.. but I don't know how to get that part off to change the bulbs
  9. I'll talk to my mechanic about the slave cylinder, but no problem so far. I got the kit at www.eclutchmaster.com If you don't find one, go to ebay and search "pathfinder eclutch" or something like that.
  10. it's clever.. a friend of mine did a new centerlink and used Toyota Land Cruiser tie rods. I'm doing a kind-of grassroots centerlink modification + pitman and auxiliar arm reinforments.
  11. I have a eclutchmasters stage II ceramic clutch. The kit is like US$195 and it's really good! I use the truck everyday and it's very street friendly for a ceramic, and WAY diferent off-roading, great for dunes/sand
  12. I already cleaned the throttle body... but i'll try what you're saying.
  13. just bought rancho 9000xl, as soon as I get them, I'll post a review
  14. I paid USD$ 6.931.05 for my 95 2door... and it was a good price here.. hahaha .. expensive country FTL
  15. In Chile, about US$7000 (crazy right?)
  16. - make a HD steering system - Do my brakes.. - Put longer shocks in the back - Panhard Drop - Change Clutch
  17. New improvement.. from 11mpg to 13.6mpg driving at higher rpm.. stil 2 or 3 mpg missing..
  18. I just ad 12.8% to my odometer with my 32x11.5x15
  19. I have added weight to it, but I have the exact same mods than a friend (same rims (12 pound alloy), tires, lift, rollcage, sliders, blah, blah) and he's getting 16-18mpg city. I'm driving at higher rpm now to see if I get an improvement. I'll keep you posted
  20. 60mph (100km/h) constant => 23mpg
  21. that's not happening so my brakes are Ok. ¿Any other theories? 11mpg is not nice on the wallet. Just checked timming and it's dead on, also I took the dist. cap off and cleaned/sanded the contacts, some crap came off, but that doesn't explain a diference of 5-7mpg
  22. I don't see any difference too dude
