[Split cv boots avail for R50s?]

Hiya, & thanks for the reply! Searched cvman / the cvman on the ebay but couldn't find..

Do you have anymore information that could point me his way?

[Split cv boots avail for R50s?]

Howdy,

I run a WD21 and I know that they make bolt together split boots for those rides.

 

I'm wondering if anyone knows where I can get the same for my friend's R50? She has split her boots, doesn't have a lot of $$ and will only need the truck for another 4 months.

 

I tried 4x4 parts.com but don't see them listed on their website.

Wanting to help her out, but I don't have time or space to re&re her axles to do the "proper" job.

 

Thanks!!

ouch!

[Thinking about buying 02 XTerra; your thoughts?]

Thanks, I appreciate your time & comments!! Yes, she's in booster in back, centre....air bgs are for the parents.

 

Alkorahil, that's perfect insight - thanks! I'll def pay more attention to that area. I guess that I can use my obi-2 scan tool to read for a cat code or is the condition of them just based on doing a visual? Rough cost for for leaf springs? I can search out the cost of cats pretty easily online.

 

cheers,

With a new addition to our family (little girl!) my trusty 95 WD21 is now dimly viewed for lack of airbags. I found a 130 000 mi 02 Xterra for 5000, and it is a 1 owner, well maintained vehicle. Hopefully I can make it out to view this week. It has 30, 000 mi less on it than our WD21 which takes me 2 years of driving to amass.

 

Any information that you'd like to share? Problem areas that I should be aware of?

 

Cheers,

[What did you do to your Pathfinder today?]

Fitted HID headlights, LED dome lights & a new tire carrier warning switch.

One washer under each bolt for the loop totally did it! No more door-a-jar light flickering on & off while I'm driving!

...Awesomeness!!

[Buying a WD21 with tranny problems...]

Ok, don't drive and test the thing. Step one, make sure the cooler has flow. Step two, drop the pan and see what is in it. Step three, reassemble, top off drive and perform AT diagnostics as per FSM.

 

Key here is not to keep messing with it before figuring out the issue. It may only be minor now...

Good advice

[WD21 Rear Hatch Sensor]

Gotta do mine tomorrow. Glad I found this thread!

[What did you do to your Pathfinder today?]

There is a thread around here that deals with it. I put a couple washers to shim up my striker and now it stays off.

 

Thanks for the reminder! I read that thread some time ago & totally forgot about it!! I'll search it out tomorrow.

[What did you do to your Pathfinder today?]

my door-a-jar light came on randomly....seems to be intermittently from the rear hatch? Anyway it p*****ed me off enough to pull the fuse.

[What did you do to your Pathfinder today?]

Yesterday, Removed front fender flares, sanded down the rust, ducked flying metal debris, por-15'd the affected areas inside the fender and out.

 

Today, fibreglassed the fender. Ordered a pint (of paint) & reducer. Opened a beer and cleaned the interior. Priced out a centerlink and tie rod ends for next weeks job.

[Please help identify this problem. Steering?]

Thanks all! I'll start w the visual like Nunya suggested and focus on the centrelink.

[Please help identify this problem. Steering?]

also has a lot of road wander lately..

[Please help identify this problem. Steering?]

steering box play was adjusted out last year.

hmmm. driver's side also exhibits similar characteristics........

[Please help identify this problem. Steering?]

Hiya! Today I'm sanding & Por15-ing my rusting front fenders and while I was at it, doing a front end check.

 

So, when I grab my passenger tire @ 9 & 3 o-clock and wriggle it, there is movement (about 1/4-1/2"). When I do the same motion at 6 & 12 o-clock, there is no movement. What's gonna be my next "to-do"?

 

Thanks,

L

[What did you do to your Pathfinder today?]

started to source out replacement front fenders - mine are rusting out! Damn, shipping to Canada is exxxxpppeeeesivvve!

Who does twisties in a pathy?!

 

 

anyone with a soggy suspension like mine! -

[Seat comfort in XE vs SE]

SE seats are faster in the twisties imho.

[What did you do to your Pathfinder today?]

Drove it hard for 600 miles in one day, and somehow....managed to get the best mileage ever out of her!

[my pathfinder wont start... 1993 4x4 automatic]

Take the battery to a shop & have them load test it to see if it's up-to-snuff.

What part of BC are you in? Maybe there is a member nearby? I'm in Kamlooops

[Don't know if this has been covered, tranny coolers tube and fin VS plate style]

I run a B&M stacked plate (forget the BTUs) but it's a small little unit (~ 6"x8"?) out front of the rad where it works at 100% efficiency. The stock cooler in the rad is bypassed. Temp is ~150 cruisin' through the mountains pulling a 4x8' utility trailer w/ two motorcycles on it. Works well in the cold winter weather we have here and doesn't make for difficult or hard shifting. I'd put that on if I was to do it all over again.
