  1. Got both headers on........that drivers side one was a biotch!!!!! The Y pipe won't go on because the other exhaust and Magnaflow is in the way.....guess I get to drive to the muffler shop in the morning with open headers!!!!! Oh, and holy frijoles it's loud with open headers!!!!!

  2. I had a buddy of mine that had switched backup lights and there was a guy behind him at a red light that had his high beams on....he was a little pi$$ed at the high beams and flipped on his backups and then the nice deputy flipped on his blue lights.....needless to say, my buddy got a ticket.

  3. Not as funny as some, but here goes...

     

    While I was in college, I worked for an oil and gas pipeline company during my semester breaks. One day, we were walking lines checking for leaks, as the pressure was down at one of the meters....when we would have this situation come up, we would put mercaptan in the lines....this is the stuff that is put in the lines that causes natural gas to have an odor.....since the leaks that we were looking for were in lines from the well to the plant, they didn't have the mercaptan added yet.....well, we found the leak.....however in the process of adding the stuff to the lines, me and the other guy got some on us.....Now it's time to head to the hardware store for the part to fix the leak and it's lunch time.....we went by the hardware store first and while wandering around the store, we kept hearing people in the store saying, "Is that a gas leak, do you smell gas, we need to call the gas company!!!" After getting everyone in the hardware store into a frenzy, AND not saying a word, we got out of there very quickly!!!! I don't know how we made it to the chicken place to get something for lunch because we were laughing so hard......we went through the drive thru so as to not cause anymore chaos......passing back by the hardware store on the way to the jobsite, we saw that the fire department was there.....oops, and we never said a word.......

    Tuck in that wiring, soldier!! :D

     

    Today I charged the battery...

     

    B

     

    Yeah, yeah.....I see it every day and apparently I am too lazy to tuck it in.....oh, and I must say that I really do like those lights.....I have them wired into the markers too....not a bad deal for 15 bucks

  5. had the windshield replaced and got a new inspection sticker.......put on the X-Racks and admired them.....now it is raining and I refuse to go out there and take them off so I can sand and paint them......hopefully it will stop sometime during my nap and I can get to them this evening!!!!!

  6. got home and put all the insides back together in preparation for the windshield guy to get here tomorrow.....test fitted the X-Rack and the dents in the front of the roof from the rollover wont let the front feet sit flat... :thumbsdown: ...now I gotta work on the dents before I can get the dang rack mounted

  7. Mine cost me $21 in Baton Rouge. :tongue: Course if I count in the gas my titan burned to go over there and get it I probably paid more than you.

    I wish you lived closer, I could help you mod and mount that, then you could help me put the trans back in mine! :D I stop and look at it every day but it still hasn't moved on it's own.

    I will be on leave from 13 Apr - 30 Apr....Maybe I can come down there and help you on the last weekend of the month....I will just have to see what is happening....you are only about 3 hours from me!!!

  8. I found all the parts here at nissanpartszone.com......The part numbers match the 92 Pathfinder....everything but the shock cost $23.24 without shipping.....I am gonna order from them so I don't have to dig and hunt for bolts and nuts and washers all over the place......I found the Monroe shock that 88 talked about at Pepboys for $31-32. Hope this link helps any and all that are looking to do this upgrade!!!

  9. Looks GOOD!!!

     

    Building drawer number one...

    IMAG0185.jpg

     

    I never build drawers like that. If you have any weight at all, one good tug on the drawer front will pull it off. Better still to run a rebate, glue it up, and pin it from the sides & bottom. That'll do ya!

     

     

    I think I am just gonna drill some holes and knot some nylon rope for drawer pulls....any other ideas on the drawer pulls???

     

     

    Drill a couple 1" holes and just use finger pulls?

    Cut out a shape like: -\____/- that fits your hand?

    Drill two 1" holes 5" apart and use a jigsaw to join them up? Kinda like this: (______) Although my 'puter only lets me make the bottom like.

     

    Thank you!!!!! I have done the best I could with what I have.....I built a 28X28 deck for a friend a year ago and fried both my table saw and chop saw so all this was done with a circular saw and jig saw....

     

    Each drawer is on 60# medium duty sliders so I don't think weight will be a problem and the 4-2 5/8" screws holding the face on should keep them from coming off...

     

    yeah, I just thought I would drill some holes and knot rope on the backsides to make something different from all the others I have seen, however, the notch on the top sounds like a good idea too....

     

    Next adventure is a heavy duty slider on the other side to put the spare/backup/extra battery and air compressor on.....the slide out will make working on the stuff easier....oh, and a door for that compartment with a piece that covers the center line of the drawers so they don't come open or move when they are not supposed to!!!

  10. Finished up the drawers in the storage compartment.....

     

    Got the area prepped to take the drawers.....

    I had to do some adjusting on the sliders to get the drawer as square as I could!!!

  11. Got my new blinkers mounted....they are parking/marker lights as well.....

    also mounted my fire extinguisher and first aid kit......

    IMAG0182.jpgIMAG0183.jpg

     

    Measured the depth of my storage box so I can go back to Lowe's to get 1X4s and drawer sliders so I can make the drawers for the storage area......

  12. LOL. I love how you operate.

     

    $3 part now, $200 part next week.

     

    Hell, the PCV valve has been sitting in the garage for a while...I was cleaning my work area last night and found it and figured why not put it in... :shrug:

     

    My wife picks on me about my mechanical ADD....I will be doing something and see something else and stop and do it and then go back to my original task.....

  13. Might be best to PM him since he's not always keeping an eye on everything out there on all forums. He's a busy guy and unless he's alerted of a new message, he may over look this and it will come across to you that he's being a dick that doesn't want business. Try either his GrandpaX or AK9849cy logins.

    will do.....thanks!!!
