I thought about searching for this but had no idea what to search for. For those of us who have body lifts, has anyone had issues with the rubber intake boot? I know the guys with a 3" body lift, the intake is bent quite a bit. I was thinking about a wedge to be placed between the air box and the piece that the maf connects to, or a wedge between the throttle body and intake. That would take the bend out of the boot. I don't know if that would have any ill effects on the maf. Does anyone with more knowledge know if it would work?

Most of out tachometers don't work, or work intermittently.

I can't answer that question. What I can say about connectors that are not used. Most manufactures make 1 harness for their vehicles. It's easier to make 1 rather than multiple harnesses. If you look around the vehicle you will find multiple connectors not used. I know that doesn't answer your question. I wasn't sure if you were aware.

I drove a friend's sion. The box looking car. It had some get up and go to it, but not impressed.

She had a Ford Escape and sold it. It was giving her issues the dealer couldn't figure out. I have looked at a few small suv types. CRV seems to be the best of the bunch. I would prefer something I am familiar with. I can save her some money by doing the work myself. That's why I was asking about other Nissan vehicles. B I will look into the r50. Thanks for the help all.

My mom is going to be looking for a vehicle soon. She needs something that sits up higher than a car. Something like a crossover or suv. I don't have much experience with other Nissan vehicles besides my 95 Pathfinder. If you have a recommendation of a vehicle please give me some info on it. What to look out for, maintenance issues, or lack of. Does it have a timing belt or chain. If it has a belt I will have to do the work on it. I want to know what I'm getting into. Something with an automatic trans. Are all Nissan auto trans subject to the cooler failing and ruining the trans? Something with good mileage, at least 25+ mpg. I was thinking the Murano but not sure about the CVT trans. I'm going to guess and say less than 10k. Don't need 4x4. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

If the injectors are firing and you have spark, the only other thing would be air. Have you checked the maf?

After you drop the exhaust it makes some room to get at the bolts. You may need a long extension to get at a couple bolts. You can put a couple extensions together, but that will cause some deflection and may not work very well. I assume a 95 is similar to the 90? 4x4 or 4x2? On a 4x2 you should be able to squeeze out the cross member around he torsion bars without removing them. 4x4 I'm not sure, I have not done my clutch yet. I did a clutch on a 4x2 and I didn't have to remove the torsion bars, it was a 95. The transmission is heavy, very heavy. Have a buddy help.

You actually add a ground to the existing ground. Make sure you get the right wire. If not things will melt.

I don't know how Canada is about vehicle modifications. Do you have a place that will make them?

If the exhaust is clogged it won't run well, if at all. The engine needs to spit out the exhaust. Unless your O2 is bad and dumping a lot of fuel into the exhaust, it's unlikely the cat is clogged. Possibly but unlikely. The maf will probably check out fine. Add a ground to the existing ground. It drops it at random.

It has a cup holder.

An exhaust shop can fix you up if you can't do it yourself. Some of the hangers can be purchased from the dealer.

The maf can lose its ground for some unknown reason. Add a new ground to the existing ground. You might look at the iac valve. That can cause idle issues.

What did it cost to do this? More info on the install please.

One thing to consider is the fuel cools and lubes the pump. If you are letting the fuel get that low you run the risk of premature pump failure. I'm not saying it will go out sooner, something to think about. I fill up after I get down to 1/4 tank.

I hate the placement of the filter. I put a remote filter on mine. Granted it sits straight not angled. My oil light does not stay on even when I go to the snow.

I'm more of a do it all so you know it has been done. Less to worry about. It is a bit more expensive to replace it all, especially if you pay to have it done. Don't be surprised if the shop wants to replace a lot of items. It doesn't help that I don't trust others to work on my vehicles unless I can't fix it myself. I like the boards here. Lots of helpful people.

My alt figured it would die on me today. I managed to get to the parts store before the battery completely died. I replaced the battery also. I'm glad these are pretty easy to work on. I changed the alt out in the dark. I did have a drop light though. The way I look at it, I own the vehicle, so no payment.

Consider tie rods and centerlink. I would jack the front up and let the tires hang off the ground. Grab each tire and move it side to side. You will see some movement if things are bad. Idler arms seem to hold up well. Like others I made my own idler arm brace. You can buy one if you don't have the skills to make one. Do you need one, probably not. I would replace upper and lower ball joints. While you are there repack the bearings. Inspect the bearing for wear before packing them. You can re index the torsion bars. If you do only go one tooth. If you have any boots missing on the bars change them. The dealer should still sell them. Inspect your cv shaft boots. If one is ripped I would just replace the whole shaft. Just easier and good insurance in case the joint has been exposed for a while. I could go on. My point is if you have never touched the front end, do it all. It will make the wife feel safer.

Lifetime warranty, translated means you spend your lifetime replacing the parts. Lol

I was young when we lived in Montana. It was cold and we didn't know any other weather.

I finally got around to putting on the 2" body lift. Made brackets for the ebrake cables and drive shaft safety loop. I put longer hoses on the power steering reservoir rather than drilling new holes. I have to have new hoses crimped for my remote oil filter mount. I installed the rear gap guards but not the front. I'm probably going to cut the front guards down and use the factory holes for mounting.

I have no more mountain blood left in me. When I travel to snow country I have to pack extra warm. It has been chilly here. 39°f at night. 50°f during the day. Yes that is chilly to me. Lol

I'm in the same boat as you. I do go to the snow sometimes. I do little off road. I went with a little less aggressive tire so I could head the radio when going down the road. I bought Hancook Dynapro AT. They clear the mud out of the tread well. I did plow through some deep snow and had no issues. I'm not saying to go buy them. Just a suggestion.
