  1. WHat does it cost to replace the throw out bearing.
  2. where is the drain plug located? I lifted the ass end up with my forklift and hosed out underneath really well. However, I cant really tell exactly where the sound is coming from. It seems like it is coming from the driver side of the engine compartment.
  3. Hey guys. I got off into some mud in my pathfinder and ever since when I put my clutch in it makes a noise.. It almost like something is rubbing. Any help would be appreciated.
  4. Thanks for the feedback. I have already bought new seals and a thermostat. I am also doing both radiator hoses and the bypass hose. Of course im doing the timing belt and tensioner as well. Am I missing anything?
  5. Ok. I finally have some time to do some wrenching this weekend and im going to to the timing belt on my rig. I was wondering if anyone has any advice on what brand of water pump I should use? Any help would be appreciated!
  6. Thanks man. I appreciate the help. Im new to all of this and can use all the help i can get
  7. Ok. its time to bite the bullet and do the timing belt. Where is the best place to get a timing belt kit that consists of all the parts you need in order to do the timing belt? Thanks Phil
  8. Hey man. Im so happy that your mommys boyfriend let you drive the truck for 300 miles, but I have experience towing all over the country. No truck, other than titan, can compare as far a reliability goes to a tundra or sequoia. I mean just read your own post. " Replaced transmission" "all the work on them" your words speak for me. Lastly, the old gas pedal recall joke. Thats toyotas biggest recall in history. It was a huge mistake but every automobile company has had their fare share of mistakes. Remember when fords were catching fire in peoples driveways, or rolling over due to faulty tires. O wait... you werent even born yet. Im ending this right now. I dont have time to argue with children all day.... so on an ending note the ford is rated at 8000lbs.... checkmate.
  9. Cheap huh? In no way is the interior on a toyota cheaper than a ford or a chevy. You mention a corolla? No @!*% the corolla are not that reliabe, however what about the Camry? Those arent reliable? Anyways we were discussing trucks not small cars. Perhaps if you want to talk small cars you need to look into the ford escorts problems or the mustang? Lastly, i would love to see an f150 pull 12000 lbs. You keep living your life through all of your friends. "my buddy has a dodge... my friends parents have an avalance." How pathetic. I know my cars because ive owned multiple vehicles myself not because my friends parents let me ride in theirs.
  10. You must not have realized I was talking about the current generation of the sequpia and the Tundra. The old seqouia cant even be compared to the new sequoia. The newer one is much larger and has the 5.7 in it. It has a towing capacity of 10000 lbs. Also, if you have the money you can get the platinum that has the self leveling function. This is somehting neither the avalanche nor the armada offer. DO your research. Since the topic of this post was "towing vehicle" it se2ms to me a vehicle with a 10000 pound payload is somehting to be mentioned. Lastly, you sound like you are just completely against toyota, which is fine but you need to realize that they are known to be and have proven to be some of the most reliable cars on the road. Just because you dont have the coin to buy one dosent mean you have to criticize them.
  11. First you need to decide if you want a truck or an SUV. If you decide on an SUV the Toyota Sequoia is the best on the road. Tows 2000 less than that 2500! You say you dont want to tow a nissan with a toyota? Why not? Both Nissan and Toyota make good vehicles. Seems to me it would be more ridiculous to tow a well built foreign nissan with a crappy american truck. Just my opinion.
  12. my1path. Dont be a SEARCH NATZI. Get over yourself. Some people dont know any better and need a little help. No need to "all caps" someone
  13. banned for driving your daddys pathfinder!
  14. Royal Purple! Used to run mobil one but it was so ****** I threw a rod. Had to rebuild the whole engine. Royal purple is the only oil worth running. End of Story!!!
  15. The best advice I can give you is to quit smoking.
  16. I know tire size questions are frowned at but I need to know if 31x11.5x15 will run ok on a stock pathfinder? I know 31.10.5x15 are fine however I have a chance to buy some that are 11.5 wide and need to know asap. Thanks phil
  17. Bought my second rig this weekend. I dont have enough time to do the timing belt and water pump myself. Just wondering if anybody knows about what it should cost to have it done at a mechanic?
  18. Really? I have been saving money for an ARB bumper for several months. I know they dont make them for the Terano anymore, but i have the body lift, so from what I hear the hardbody one will work? Are they really not strong? I need something i can hook a chain onto and have my buddies pull me out, or better yet me pull my buddies out. I cant afford to spend that kind of the money on the ARB if it isnt quality.
  19. Welcome to the forum. There is a ton of info here and I have found it to be very usefull. Enjoy Phil
  20. I was wondering how long it should take for a professional mechanic to install a 3" body lift on my 95 pathfinder? I orderd the lift from 4x4parts.com Thanks Phil
  21. That looks good to me. Now I just neet to find a grill guard and a rear bumber and Im ready.
  22. Thanks man. I think im either gone run 31" 10.5 r15 or possibly purchase wider rims and attempt to run 31x12.5 does that sound like a good plan?
  23. Thanks man. You have done almost exactly what I would like to do to my pathfinder. I have been looking for a rear bumper like that for weeks. Mind letting me know where you got it? Also, what 3" suspension lift did you go with and where did you buy your spare tire rack? Thanks. Phil
  24. Thanks! You have a great looking rig. Im getting my timing belt done next month. THen the lift and tires and ill be ready for the trail. Thanks again. Phil
  25. Thanks man. That looks nice. Is that with a 3" body lift?
