  1. Ok so KYB or OME Struts which ones you figure are better?
  2. Hey Dan do you know if Rancho adjustables are available for the R50 Rancho says no but I think I read on Ac someone has them. If so do you know the part# for them. I have the OME front HD springs but I need some struts for them. Looking for the Remote adjustables FYI. Thanks,
  3. Ahh just to set you straight on a fact. First off with the VDC turned off you can get wheel spin, it brakes the engine with it on. I do quite a bit of trails in winter and summer and I have been stuck but it was for the crappy factory tires that were on it (changed that) not from lack of wheel spin,had that a plenty. Now I do have the O/R but I knew that rear locker wouldn't help me as I made myself some pretty huge ruts. So didn't even turn it on. I was just spinning no use. Well this Spring I will post some Vids of some trails with 05 X.
  4. That looks more like the FJ cruiser then anything else. Further more that's a 1000X better looking then the new Pathy that's out. It can only get better boys Nissan sales are lacking on the new pathy from what I am told so maybe a redesign to make a come back
  5. That's cool, If they make it I think I might have a new truck.
  6. Herm you have the Fram plug do you still loosen the bolts on the Bracket bar? If so try this next. Take your Fram Tube and cut it shorter then screw your Drain attatchment in. This is what I do and it seems to work on the First Gen the second Gen is Super easy without the Fram attatchment. I do believe you have 1 of my first Gen Defender plates? I remember I had to do that before I put that Fram drain plug on as well.
  7. I just drop the Front skid it's 6 bolts and the rear plate you don't have to take off at all. You don't have to loosen any bolts on the Rear plate just let it hang there. Herm is correct all the new plates have a larger hole for the oil drain plug.
  8. This type of problem that you had was installer error. I have 2 aftermarket remote starter/alarm. The first is the wifes remote starter which had to go back as they screwed up. Second was my remote starter and alarm on my X now the first guy that put it in didn't have a clue so I went over to the other Best buy. The guy said Nissan was the hardest and that they should never put a mediocre guy to do the install. So he fixed it up took him awhile about 6-8hrs as he had to rip all the other guys stuff out and start over. The reason- the guy hooked it upto the battery which is a huge NO No as it's not a domestic or Honda. Nissans have to be done properly or they won't work at all or they will be finicky. Just make sure you ask your installer if he has ever done 1 before and talk with him if he has your good to go. If he has not well don't let him mess with it. total spent on my alarm starter was around $400 as a bought the 1 thet tells me if it's started. I do suggest this 1 by far.
  9. The Factory Alarm will not go off if someone breaks your window but when they open the door after they do is when it will go off. I put an alarm in mine and it still keeps the factory needing the key in the ignition to drive away. It has the sensors for the windows and such I put that in because I wanted command start. Being where I live it's pretty cold usually this is the first warm winter as it hit only -25 and only for a week or so but the steady temp has been around -10 which is super warm for our winter.
  10. And again I told ARB that from the beginning.
  11. Well the Navara Bar that ARB said they fit on the R50 pathy's don't fit them at all. So I'm just giving you a heads up before you go through what I went through with ARB and their techs + Reps. I had that Bar for over 3 months trying to get rid of it. Oh BTW ARB said they fit the Navara Bar on 2 other R50 and they only recommend that 1. Then after the 3 months they all changed there mind and now know the Navara doesn't work. I know this is for the new pathy but I would still apprehensive about them now.
  12. How I heard that one before if it fits a navara then I'd say wait it out I went through a very long string with ARB and they had no clue at the end. The bar they sent. Navara bull bar. Did it fit anything here? NOPE. The Navara bar is set up naot for anything in North America.
  13. C'mon Luke I know you have that propeller hitch plug
  14. A shifter and a switch kinda weird
  15. Dam that's a good return
  16. Check it out boys. Nissan Canada
  17. 94 pathy's don't have that. You know this went alittle off topic but I do think that it is more important kinda haha When they started making them in the US I knew they would cheap on something didn't think they would go that far though.
  18. Well I saw the pics of the Stress Cracks and I have to say WOW!! What was Nissan thinking of putting a Aluminum Diff in the Front End?
  19. I totally agree with you Trainman! I think it all comes down to money. Nissan should charge a tad more if you want that option on any of there models of SUV's. I know my wifes R50 has that Auto mode and it's a great feature I do wish my X( joke to LUke ) had that.
  20. have 2 in the family 03 (wifes) 95 Both Black
  21. No Prob, Whoops, should of posted that along with the first post. The Rock Washers will be finished Dec.1/05 The reason for the length of time is because I put in such a large order. So if I would of ordered less then I did the cost would of trippled per Washer but I would have had them sooner. So all my existing customers will have them sent out to them when I recieve them. All Rock Washers will be a Gold Galvanized plating on them.
