  1. So I wonder if we could somehow modify another extended strut to fit the knuckle of the our pathfinder. I'm not a big fabricator guy as you may assess from my posts just trying to come up with other ideas. But I do have a really good friend that is a wizard fabricator. Is this even something that could even be a possibility, to modify an extended length strut to work on our pathfinders??

  2. So just a though and I'm sure it's been explained so again sorry, but with the front coils, when doing the SFD it requires a coil spacer. Is there no way to use a longer coil spring without the spacer? I just hate the idea of using the spacer? For example the rear to lift it I've read on here you use a modified jeep coil thats extended with a modified coil spring perch? Maybe as I'm new to struts I'm not grasping the need for coil spacers up front. Any explanation/ help is always appreciated. Thanks again everyone!

  3. I also was wondering, for those of you that have done the SFD have you noticed any shifting or movement of the blocks?? Has anyone experienced the blocks themselves shifting or deforming? May be a silly question but it's stuff I think about. If I did the SFD would there be any negatives (other than permanent ) if I were to use the bolts and weld the blocks in? Thanks everyone I'm sure these questions have been asked before so I apologize in advance, lol!

  4. So Has anyone built their own sliders for the R50? My buddy is a really good fabricator and I'm sure he could come up with something but I was wondering since there isnt a frame to mount them onto where might the be fastened to?? I was thinking perhaps the stock location for the running boards, I have no idea. I guess I'll have to get under there and have a closer look. I just wanted to see if anyone else had any input on this. Thanks in advance!

  5. Essy I have those same wheels. Silverton I agree with you on the PITA to get it off the roof, but again having the tire under the truck on a trail and needing to get to it can be almost impossible depending on where you're at. I agree with the HCG perhaps I'll put it in the cargo area when wheelin and keep it under the truck in its location when just daily driving. As for man hubs all of the above better mpg's and less wear when not in 4x4. I wish I would have had them in my frontier. I live in AZ so there is never a situation where I would need to shift on the fly into 4x4, unless maybe going north in the winter but in that situation I would just lock em up and head out

  6. Yeah there is a set of pro comp flat black steel wheels in 3.75 bs that are calling out to me! Thanks Der_Vier I really liked that frontier but this pathfinder is growing on me. I think it's a little more family functional than the frontier was, as I rarely used the bed. And I've already utilized the pathfinders cargo area a lot already! I wish I was handy at fabricating things as I would just make the roof rack and sliders myself. I think I might try to convince a buddy to make me another set of sliders, as he made the set that was on the frontier for me. Thanks everyone for the responses this forum already feels like home!! I will try to get some pics of the pathfinder but I'll warn you it's still stock, lol!

  7. First mod I'll be doing to the Pathfinder are Warn Hubs, something I Desperately wish I could've done on the 2006 Frontier!! Not sure when I'm getting them but I know that will be the first thing to go on it!

     

    Also anyone know of a good roof rack for the LE 2002 Pathfinder, I have the kind of rack that goes the full length of the roof, its the one thats a little more than just the cross bars. It says Pathfinder along the sides. I havent seen many pathfinders with that type of rack running aftermarket roof rack setups. If anyone has this type of stock rack and also have a rugged rack I would love to see pictures, I'm trying to avoid custom as that requires lots of $$$, ha ha.

     

    Thanks in advance

  8. Yeah Penski is a wizard fabricator his frontier is ridiculous! Thanks for the warm welcomes everyone. As far as ONAZ goes we used to meet up and discuss stuff on NOR a lot but unfortunately the club has died down a bit. You know life and the fact that Penski's truck is now so ridiculous we can't go where he goes, lol!
