    Pictures of air tank install

    in 90-95 WD21 Pathfinders

    Posted

    I have the compressor mounted under the hood. I moved some electrical pieces and placed it just behind the battery. Gauge and switch are installed. Filter is in the cabin area just behind the glove box. I have the box sliders sealed and plumbed into the air system for a little more volume. I just have the tank strapped down with plumbers strap in the back cargo area and want to get it out of the way, underneath preferably, and just a quick connect where I currently have hoses running.

    I have a friend wanting to sell an ARB locker for the R180. NIB, been sitting for a few years now. He never installed it in his Xterra before he stopped wheeling. Posting in the NW boards because it is in Seattle and he would prefer to not ship. PM or reply and I will get you in touch with him.

    Just for visualization reasons so people that have never been to these two can see. The winching in Manatash can be bypassed, we intentionally did it.

    Can you say #3?

    Last I heard about Reiter it might be another year, maybe two, funding keeps drifting away I believe, and tree huggers are getting more control. Don't quote me, that's just what I hear. I go to Manastash at least 2 times a year, I wouldn't want to run it too late. Last year I went in the first week of November and couldn't make it to Funny/Moon Rocks because of the snow (coming from Ellensburg side). Early October is best. IIRC Liberty is close to the same conditions, but I think soupier mud. Regardless I think those 2 are the best in the NW. I can't say about Walker, never been, but want to!

     

    Just my experiences and .02 :my2cents:

    What else do you drive?

    2007 BMW 335i. Sport package, fully loaded less the nav system. I hate the nav, it ruins the look of the interior. 66k miles, DD and family car. Still not sure how I haven't gotten into trouble...

    I'll have to look into the centerlink. I have the steering stabilizer kit sitting in my garage, just haven't had time to do more than put the idler arm brace in. It's been sitting for a month, just too damn cold lately, and the 6 month old eats most of my time. There is still tons of stuff I need to do. New manual hubs, repack the wheel bearings, probably new ball joints, new fan, find and fix a small leak from I think the power steering. Plenty of work, enough that I have probably sold the Dana 44 taking up half of my garage.

    Help in Portland area

    If anyone helps you, you have to come to the next run with us in Feb up at Tahuya ;)

     

    What part of Portland do you live?

     

    I'd help but will be away for awhile, as I work in the Seattle area during the week.

     

    Appreciate that :) I haven't been to Tahuya in a few years. I may be heading out with my club in the middle of January for some snow fun, but need to get my fenders trimmed so I can put chains on. I have a six month old, and the wife works weekends, it is hard for me to get out and wheel much anymore.

     

    I live in Tigard near King City.

    Hi all, Dave here in Portland Oregon. Some people may recognize me from other sites. Loads of great info on the site, thought I should register and say hi. Hoping to find someone nearby to help me with some fender trimming :)

     

    My rig: '92 XE, auto, 155k miles, 3 in suspension lift, custom sliders with air fittings, ViAir constant duty air system, 33x10.5 BFG MT KM2, Lockrite locker in back, Cobra 75 handheld, Trans cooler. Future mods include new HD Torsion bars in garage, and a steering upgrade kit from AC. Front/Rear tube bumpers and tire carrier in the works. Also have a pair of racing seats I need to fab some brackets for.

     

    Edit: added some parts.
