Im going to install my oil pressure guage tomorrow and was wondering about how to wire up the light. What im wanting to know is it ok if i run a jumper wire off one of the wires from my light dimmer switch? That way it can be adjusted or should i find another wire behind the dash? and if i do will it mess anything up? I just dont want to FUBAR my truck up with such a simple little light bulb. Thanks Guys

Hell yeah def post some pics up!!!!!

I have titans on my hardbody and bored them at work with a friend. I seen where a guy put some on his 4x4 hardbody and it looked like he took a lot more off to me.

You have to bore too much material out on the rim to make them to fit the 4x4 hub and is very unsafe to me. They would look good on a pathy but not safe.

Check out my Pathy thread Lots of pics with 31s http://www.nissanpathfinders.net/forum/index.php?/topic/32608-94-pathy-woody/

Cool thanks for the write up

Just thought i would post this up for future searchers. I took my pathy to nissan and got the oil changed. It cost me $30. and they put a oem filter and 5W30 oil in. It runs So much better and the lifter tick on cold starts went away. Im gonna start getting my oil changed when the ticking happens rather then waiting on my mile mark to come first. The ticking could have been from the oil filter that was on there (not sure what it was). Not sure if it was the fresh oil or the oem filter but they both helped out majorly!!!!

Hahahahaha ok ill look into it more . The truck is a 88 and has a 97 harness becuase the whole thing has been updated to except the engine and all the other newer stuff. The previous owner had it all done at Nissan and they must have taped it all up making it look like one harness.

Ok thanks I did pull the panel and it looked like it wired into the rest of the harness. I'll look harder and maybe trim some tape back.

I have power mirrors on my hardbody and pathy but i want to swap my chrome ones on the hardbody to the pathy and the black ones onto the hardbody? I pulled the panel on the hardbody and was thinking there would be just a quick and easy connector but its wired straight into my harness. Not sure yet if my pathy is the same way? If so would it be ok if i just cut the wires and put some electrical connectors to make swapping them easier for the future? Kinda a stupid question but i wanted to see what you guys thought before i go cutting wires. Thanks Guys

It only cost $30 for oil change from Nissan and they give you a free wash. And I'm gonna do the plugs my self. I'm going to run ngk and ill prob have them put 10w30 instead of the 5w30 becuase summer is coming up.

I would do it my self but those plugs look like a bitch to do and I never liked changing the belts. My buddy that's a mechanic said he would do it for me. But I'm gonna have Nissan do the oil change becuase I don't have anything to catch the oil and store it and they will wash my pathy for freeeeeee and it needs a bath lol.

Thanks for all the help guys a lot of good info in here I'm planning on takeing my pathy to the dealer to get the oil changed. I called up to get a qoute to go ahead and have them change the plugs and belts and they wanted like 3-4 hundred $.

Thanks guys for the feedback. Junta thanks that would be great. Maybe another sticky? Lol. And I used fram on my z24 and my ka24 and I have had problems with both engines. Not sure if it had something to do with the fram filter but I have read bad things on other Nissan forums about them. So I'm staying away from them. I like them becuase they had the little grip part on the end. Always helped installing them. I never use filter wrenchs!!!! But thanks again guys.

Ok I have heard a lot of bad things when it comes to fram oil filters and this and that about other filters. I'm going to be doing a tune up and was wondering what is the best oil filter for my 94 v6 pathy. I have searched and I couldn't find anything on this topic or any brand of filter. People just state that they replaced there oil filter and don't give a brand. So if you guys would can you please help me out on this? Thanks Ryan. Oyeah what oil do you guys recommend for my pathy that has 174,000 in the AZ summer that gets up to 115? Brand and weight?

Yeah I took it apart and cleaned it. Mine had some of that white electrical grease in it so I cleaned all that out real good and added new grease same kind and it did work for about a week then it started acting up again so I said screw it and bought a new one.

There was a ad on craigslist about tires from a small mom and POP shop. I went down there and they had them in stock along with a set of 33/12.50 but I got the 31s for now till I get my lifts installed. My girlfriend was trying to get me to get the 33s bad lol she kept telling me to go big or go home. Lol she's crazy. She would have @!*% when they would of hit the fender at turn for the first time.

Ok cool yeah the blocks looked good as far as cracks or anything. There was some spots that where smashed but don't seem like they will hurt anything.

Did you like it? Anything to look out for with these blocks?

Well some of you may luagh but these only cost me $4 to make well actually i got paid to make them while i was at work. These are just a test to see if they will work (pins hold up) I took them to the belt sander to clean of the paint and to make them slide into the tubing better. The tubing is made of aircraft stainless and i found it in my junk drawer of my toolbox. Nice fit After measuring them up i found out where the tubing needs to be and then tacked welded them. We have a full blown machine shop on the other side of our building but all the machines where being used so we went this route. After they where drilled i deburred them and blasted the link ends and cleaned them all up. Let me know what you guys think. Oyeah what else do i need to button up the body lift? I have Blocks and hardware Front bumper mounts Drive shaft drop brackets and hardware Hardbody shifter Things i need Gas filler hose Gas vent line Power steering hose E-brake drop down brackets Transmission & transfer case extension? What is this? ???? Thanks Guys
