  1. Rockstars, Coffee, Pilsner! when I want to drink hard stuff I usually get Tequila or if iam at bar Pickin ill get Gin and Tonic =D

  4. Everyday stuff: Gum Coffee change Water (usually have a flat of it in my truck) Shammy's Meguire's ultra shine! some tire shine Some rags.. Extra belts Socket set Duct tape (Aka Gods gift to man) Box Cutter with extra blades Hatchet ball peen hammer. Oil ATF Liquid wrench( my trucks from Ontario so this is pretty much a must have) Wd40 some rope Pliers Extra smokes. My wheeling usually means going camping So. Rooftop bag with: Sleeping bag Pillow camp stove Food (Regular and Mre's) Then we get into the back: Beer Kool-Aid mix Fishing Rods. Tacklebox First aid kit Shovels a bucket Toilet paper (3 rolls) High vis Vest Flagging tape lighter fluid Lots more just cant think of them Fun fact. those fishing rod holders with the foam that you stick the rods into can also hold a medium sized axe farely well..(just put a bungee on it just incase) and you can toss it on your roof. the same for a regular sized shovel. I bought another set of roof racks at a garage sale for like bucks and put the rod holders on them!!
  5. I cant understand anything the locals are saying.
  6. Its 600 bucks for just labour, No part.. and thats if the bolt is not seized on.. HATERS GONNA HATE!
  7. Got my Pathy back from nissan today, they say its my harmonic balancer that needs replacing, The rubber bearing is worn apparently. They estimate 600 bucks labour and thats if the bolts not seized on. So Ive opted to do it myself. It cant be that hard, the vehicle is from ontario so iam going to assume its seized. So an overly large breakbar will likely be required. If anyones ever replaced these before any hints/tricks for doing it would be much appreciated. Ill try and get pictures/video to post up when I start (still got a few days for part to get it) Thanks guys! All i do is win win win no matter what!
  8. We have to be 18 to go into the junkyards unsupervised. under 18 need to be accompanied by a adult. I think the age restriction is just for liability reasons as there is plenty of things to hurt yourself on out there.
  9. Alot of the sites ive tried ordering a Bull Bar from are in the united states. and half the time they either dont ship up to the yukon or want like 4x the cost of the item in shipping price. Anyone got some canadian sites they know of that sell bull bars or 4x4 autoparts in general. Thanks guys =D
  10. Far different then our ford, but on it, the wire color was yellow which was Signal/Auxillary and brakes were brown ( You can run brakes off a 6 pole, just have to add it into Auxillary)but not recomended . if your going to be pulling a trailer with trailer braks. i'd strongly reccomend getting 7 pole. Less load on each wire.
  11. After doing some tinkering (mostly because i cant afford to drive the truck everyday).... I bought all new belts, put them on, and the squeal stops unti I put a load on the alternator. So its the alternator belt thats being grumpy now. Its pretty tight so iam not 100% sure if thats the problem the only thing i can think of now is that either the bearings in the alternator are goofied or my tensioner might be buggered, Should I try tightening the belts a little more? And is there a way i can check my alternator bearings without taking it out?. Thanks. sorry for not being as helpfull as iam good at asking questions lol. One day ill find a question i can awsner!
  12. ive got about 139,389 Kilometers on er now, Ive only put on about 5 thousand since ive had it
  13. Pulled a chevy astro van outta some sand today, was a pretty steep incline so we used about 120 feet of Tow rope so i could stay at the top of the hill =D
  14. P-town as in Prince George? =D just a guess!
  15. If they can cut the damned thing outta there without me waking up.... They can have it! haha, Ive never heard of this happening on streets, But out at our wrecking yard in town something like 200 Cats were Stolen from the vehicles there.
  16. Damn thing looks like those new dodge Caravans. personally. i like R50's, far more rugged looking but still street sexy, the trim on the new ones look horrible for the body style. (my opinion only though, we all have our own preferences, on how a vehicle should work and look), Iam sure the r51 is a nice cozy ride compared to all the others. But would you want to take it offroading? all new and shiny and pretty! Little off topic, But the new Ford Fiesta's look sweeet, Id drive one.
  17. I bought a little Tent trailer to pull behind my pathy, The floor is frigged so going to be replacing that with hardhood i think(pictures soooon as i get it home!!) and from the same guy i bought 2 Sleds. 1 2008 Artic cat M-8 (it was on fire at one point so its going to require some elbow grease and TLC) and a 97 Summit 600 with a broken tunnel, and no Ski's. Got all summer to get the sleds going and cant wait for winter already! Spent a little over 2800 for everything so little broke now haha.
  18. Let my Girlfriend and her sister wash it, her sister wants to use it for prom. They left Soap spots and water spots all over it. forgot to clean the wheel wells, mud flaps and the tires/rims, So it got washed twice/waxed once, Vacummed and armor all'd! Its super shiny and smells like cherries inside! =D
  19. So iam sorry for being that jerk that doesnt use the search button. Iam mainly going to be using my Pathy for Fishing/hunting and hauling my junk up the Desert and Deep Creek! Money is kinda a option as I dont make it rain anymore A little more clearence would be nice as my Trailer hitch currently hits stumps and other crap when i have my trailer on. Do they make 1.5 or 2 inch lifts for a pathy or would i have to go 2.5? and I know my prices are going to be abit different then all of yours, But how much did it run you?. If iam going to go for a lift id like to do a good job on it and not Dog-F part of it. Bullbar is pretty low on my priority list but id still love one! =D, How much have you guys spent on them with the skid plate on the bottom aswell. Punched a hole in one of my headlights, Should i just go ahead and replace or do you think if i put some clear silicone apoxy on there it'd work out pretty good for awhile? As for my exhaust, iam thinking of replacing with a new stock one, or a performance exhaust. if iam going performance id like it to add a nice sound to my truck if iam going to spend the extra money. What do you all have on yours. and do you enjoy the sound it make... (non of that Dancing devil sounding stuff please) on my girlfriends truck i put a MBRP exhaust setup on it. Sounds great but they dont make those for pathys =( Last question! If i get a bullbar with a skid plate, Should i get another?, And diff Guards? should i get some of those for the front/back? Any other protective equipment i should get for my truck before i undertake real offroading?. Iam sorry for the massive wall of text and my ability to ask more questions then help solve. Iam still learning this automotive game. Thanks, Kyle Aka Next to Alaska!
  20. Today!!! I put all new belts on, and the squealing has stopped!! then I washed it, Had a bird crap on my hood. So i washed it again, And Applied my Rockstar/ Monster Energy Stickers and Heli-Boarding stickers. Bought some Sandblasting sand for my Rims and some Cheezy Skull Valve stem covers... but they i'll make em work =D
  21. Iam a music fan, especially in my vehicle, so the first thing I decided to do when I got my pathy was replace the stock stereo n speakers for some new stuff and high quality. I bought 2 JBL 1200's n am using 2 Sony explod 1200 watt amps. Just waiting for them to come in =D,my speakers i got at canadian tire, just some Pionner 6x12's for the back n still lookin for some mini's online for the front. Found a wicked instruction guide on install doctor! http://www.installdr.com/installdocs/nissan/PDF/647017.pdf
  22. Sheet metal tape is your friend if you dont want to do a full redo. Spraying your new stuff with rust check spraypaint helps alot to if its not stainless steal. Especially on the bolts and seams as those are were most leaks start.
  23. Its a 87 Chevy 350 3x3 Dually, In almost mint shape, just abit of rust around the passenger rear wheel well, I love it! just not the part where it has a 454 haha. Iam also in talks with him to buy his other truck.. its the 3rd or the 4th truck not sure which place it came in, Its a 75 Ford ranger camper special straight cab, The body is pretty chewed but its got a very very strong 390 in it. He wont sell it to me because i cant afford to drive the damn thing (which is true!) but i still want to buy it! it rained here today.. Felt like it was gunna snow again, so happy it didnt.
  24. I stared at mine as i WALKED to work this afternoon, Got one of my pop's oldie trucks now to drive until I can find the time to work on it, Woop Woop! its a awesome dually! but it gets like 7mpg if iam lucky so no cruising. Unless of course its to the liquor store!, Oh and i got the paint for my front passenger fender!
