Whats the largest tire sizes on the OEM rims without risking scrubbing the fenders? I love how aggressive the KM2's look and hoping with my sagging torsion bars that they wont scrub... 32 11 15's?

What differentiates the models that have the spare inside the rear of the pathy vs mounted on the back? I drove a 95 that had it inside and mine is mounted on the back...... any preference or advantages of either?

Yea I would never attempt rebuilding an LSD by myself.. that's way above my head when it comes to transmissions or gears.

Yes I totally agree- both the ground cable and the positive cables need to be replaced and probably the battery too... 1 wire from both - & + run to the bottom of the engine near the front so I wonder if its a part of the push button start... I'll try disconnecting one to see if it stops working as I never use it! And I might upgrade the alternator while I'm at it with one from a maxima or whatever puts out more amps... cheers

Yea we'll see how it does after I seafoam it this week - waiting for 2 cans of seafoam and one can of seafoam spray...... im going to spray the whole can inside the intake and put some in the fuel...... but can't find the vacuum hose to use to suck it into the crank case or should I Just pour it into the oil filler cap?

Yea that's kind of what I was thinking - there is a keyless system and the previous owner had a huge 5000 watt amp connected to it so who knows what tomfoolery he did to the electrical system...... oh and there's a pushbutton start on the dash (!?!?) of course that requires a key to be in the on position for it to work.... Anyways great setup!

Is it a bad thing that I drilled out the part on the throttle body that prevents the throttle plate from opening all the way? I was cleaning my TB and noticed that the throttle plate does not open all the way when turning the throttle cables... so i drilled it out a bit so it can open almost all the way - would there be any negative effects of doing this? I've alreay noticed an increase in throttle response after cleaning it and WOT is a lot better! The inside of the intake manifold however is forking nasty eh......... blehg thoughts? thinking of doing the intake mod to my 95 as the plumbing to get air into the airbox is just very restrictive....

LoL do you have any clues as to what is connected to my + side of the battery? I know it might be a bit tough to see...

LOL I have a 50Mbps connection so dont sweat the size the higher res the better! and DAYUM your electrical work is CLEAN! have you seen my nightmare of a jerry rigged battery setup? http://www.nissanpathfinders.net/forum/topic/35312-tachometer-resistor-and-other-electrical-madness/ How in the world am I going to clean this up? I have no idea where to start...

Can we see some pics that aren't 3 pixels by 5 pixels? lol This is pretty interesting! Daver123 are there any pics of your build? Sounds like a lot of work that many ppl here would like to see!

I'd be lucky to get 200 miles on a tank! Hoping that when I change the fuel filter it will be better... $70 fill ups sux......

when is it going to be on the road!?

George Lucas? lol :confused:

What is your review (performance / drivability etc) of the new LSD in the front end?

Well then someone must have been mashing that button even before I bought the truck lol I mean the whole assembly is loose not just the key inside it... the whole cylinder is loose almost as if I could just take it out and Im sure someone could fairly easily... As far as the funky wiring, there are 2 wires that go down towards the starter so I think it is related... not sure why its so jerry rigged tho and wired up nasty... I'd rather just remove it and put it back to stock but I have no clue what wire goes where.... The ground wire on the battery definitely needs to be replaced. And I got a CEL yesterday -- checked the codes and its a 33 - o2 sensor.... meh its always something to fix on these things! i just wanna to wheelin once I get new tires!

http://www.tirerack.com/tires/tires.jsp?tireMake=BFGoodrich&tireModel=Mud-Terrain+T/A+KM2&partnum=105QR5KM2RWLV2 is this the same size you got? I really love the square look rather than the rounded donuts look like these as much as I really love these KM2's... it'll give me more of a reason to find some trails here in socal! But are they noisy on the street? I posted the KM's by accident and I meant these ^^^^^^

I dont "Need" them lol I just like how they look - i just dont know what the best size is for mostly highway driving (and not big on the noise) so thats why I was leaning towards the T/A KO's which is on the truck now in various stages of wear...

I'm trying to decide between this: http://www.tirerack.com/tires/tires.jsp?tireMake=BFGoodrich&tireModel=Mud-Terrain+T/A+KM&partnum=575QR7MTAKM And this: http://www.tirerack.com/tires/tires.jsp?tireMake=BFGoodrich&tireModel=All-Terrain+T%2FA+KO&partnum=375SR5ATAKORWLV2&vehicleSearch=true&fromCompare1=yes&autoMake=Nissan&autoYear=1995&autoModel=Pathfinder%20XE%204wd&autoModClar= Of course the KM2's are bigger - I don't really want to run a huge tire w/o a lift so I'm leaning to the 2nd option which are more for daily use.... thoughts? What are the biggest sizes I can run on the OEM rims without rubbing or being too loud / and soaking up power? Thx!

Grr I wish i could just edit my original post! anyways to improve ride quality on the highway, should I just go with OEM bushings instead of the polyurethane ones?

https://www.4x4parts.com/nissan/pathfinder-rear-pan-hard-rod-bushings-p-2519.html Also found the panhard bushings.... (not sure why i cant edit my own post above??)

Awesome! How do you like having an LSD in the front diff? Does it crab walk when in 2H when making tight turns? How is the drivability on and offroad? https://www.4x4parts.com/nissan/control-arm-bushing-kit-p-4125.html I'm not sure if this covers everything needed for the front (im doing the ball joints too) https://www.4x4parts.com/nissan/pathfinder-bushings-pathfinder-front-bushings-c-435_377_349_741.html Here are the front bushings list for our model - what else do I need? Ive already replaced the sway bar bushings which has only made the older parts even louder! lol https://www.4x4parts.com/nissan/pathfinder-torsion-bars-p-94.html Also thinking about getting these - the front end is sagging and I want some additional performance when taking bumps... right now the ride is pretty harsh even with new Rancho RS5000's....

Yea its a push button start.... if I put the key in and turn it where the dash lights come on it starts..... weird. that might explain all the weird wiring on my battery! Also the part that you put the key in is very loose and the plastic trim around the ignition is also removable .. It looks like it would probably be pretty easy to start it w/o the key.....

What I meant was are those the same bushings he used in the rear of his pathfinder (the red bushings that you can see in the pics above)............ http://i698.photobucket.com/albums/vv348/Ryan95Sanman/Truck%20Build/IMGP0248_zpsa76cd3e2.jpg

https://www.4x4parts.com/nissan/complete-pathfinder-split-design-trailing-arm-bushing-kit-p-6244.html is this it for the rear?

One thing I tried was holding it while cranking the truck and it started immediately... I pushed it again and I heard the SHRRRRRRRRRR sound you hear if you try to start the car while its already running... this just makes me even more curious.
