  1. Quick easy thing to check is your rack and pinion bushing. Mine were shot and would produce something close to that.
  2. Looks nice. Once I do get my new front struts in the front with the strut spacers. I'll see how the truck ends up sitting. Would be nice, if you could put them with the springs on the front strut to add a lil lift.
  3. If you have a smart phone with bluetooth. Check out the Torque App. Works with bluetooth OBDII adapters. The app costs $5 and the adapter costs about $20-35 on Amazon. Its what I use and works very well. App: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=org.prowl.torque&hl=en Adapter: http://www.amazon.com/BAFX-Products-PIC18F2480-diagnostics-compatible/dp/B005NLQAHS/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1377009766&sr=8-1&keywords=bluetooth+obd2
  4. I tow the work trailer a lot with my 99.0. The work trailer weighs 1620lbs. Tows fine, obviously slower on take offs, longer stopping distance. I get 16mpg with or with out it. But, the max speed it tows it comfortably is 60-65. Could do 70, but mileage really drops and the transmission starts to struggle on hills. Good thing for the monster cooler I have for it. If that trailer weighs 2500lbs. You will notice it. Both in sag in the rear if its not balanced for proper tongue weight, and start/stop power. You could invest the ~250 to put on a hitch. Then do a test run, or tow it someplace close to get a feel. See how it feels to you. If you do go another Pathfinder. I would highly recommend one that has the 3.5 in it over the 3.3.
  5. There was another thread recently about these type of coil spacers for the rear. I'd have to find it. But I believe the user ended up using Daystar's rear spacers for same model 4Runner and they worked.
  6. Could just be plugged up. Sometimes a pick can be used to free up the check ball. Or just take it off and clean it up then re install.
  7. Be careful of TAG. They have a history. Just google em. FYO
  8. Something very important there: GVWR First, I would go weigh your truck empty. No cargo. Just a full tank of gas. See how much you have to play with. Example: My truck, max GVWR is 5150. With my work tools and two of us in the truck. Its at 5000lbs. Doesnt leave room for much else!
  9. You know what aggravating? I was there today and completely forgot to ask about this. BTW, small shop.
  10. No its not Fluery's set. The OP is having issues with the AC skid plate set.
  11. Since I swapped to the Mobile 1 Synthetic High Mileage. I am now doing 5k changes. Just because I can hit 5k pretty quick and they are hard miles. If they were easier miles, I'd easily go 6-7k between changes. (Truck sits about #5000lbs normally, plus the #2000lbs trailer, ~250miles a day in highway and city stop n go.)
  12. As for your question, thats the oil I run in my Pathfinder. 99.0 with 176k. Works great, and cant beat the Walmart price of ~$21 for big jug.
  13. A quality muffler shouldnt produce drone. As long as you have it exit from the vehicle. A turn down where it exits under the vehicle will produce more drone though. When I had my 01 Z28 and true duals that dumped under the car. Whew, that was some drone! But was running Moroso Spiral flows.
  14. I see what you mean now. Doesnt look like much lines up at all. I'd give them a call tomorrow and see what info you can get from them.
  15. Able to provide pics? Possibly while holding it in position to see? What is this support bracket?
  16. Small update to this. Weighed the truck today. Truck weighs: #4520 with lil less than 1/2 tank of gas and my loadout of tools in it. So, add ~#90lbs for rest of gas, 210 for me, plus either 175 for my business partner or wife & kid and Im hitting #5000lbs easy. Pretty scary that close to max GVWR.
  17. +1 +1 Nice. Doug Thorley has made nice headers. =)
  18. Who would be the manufacture? If possible. I've had bad experiences with Pacesetter headers on LSx engines.
  19. Interested. Just dont be over $300 hopefully. Unless they come ceramic coated.
  20. Rain rain rain. Not stopping for very long, or long enough to bleed and replace fluid here. Hopefully this weekend I can get it done.
  21. Unfortunately i probably wont be able to bleed them till next week. We have the remains of a tropical storm raining us out right now Sent from my Galaxy Nexus using Tapatalk 4 Beta
  22. Agree on rotor mileage. Mine look factory. But wear is minimal and face looks perfect Sent from my Galaxy Nexus using Tapatalk 4 Beta
  23. Abs should kick in under hard braking where the tires start to lock up. The abs then pulses to keep them from just slidiy Sent from my Galaxy Nexus using Tapatalk 4 Beta
