  1. The only 2" lift springs available are the AC springs. (4x4parts.com/nissan).

    To lift the rear. I believe you only need the WJ adapters that also provide 1" lift with 4" springs. I'd call to be sure. Just that the spring rate is different for the WJ. So 4" gives us closer to 5.5 or so. At leas from what the FAQ says on there site.

     

    Oh, and while your in there. If you havent replaced your struts recently and they have age on them. Change them out. RockAuto.com for those.

    Rear shocks, according the the FAQ for the subframe drop, is to use 2002 F350 rear shocks.

  2. Find a place to get them mounted up?

     

    I checked out on Google map where you were talking about. Down south off of Card Sound road. Yep. that place looks fun. If you head that way, definitely hit me up.

    PM'd you my contact info.

  3. Damn you are close to me. <br />I want to explore but dont have anyone around to go with me.<br />I found out about the Mudoholics. I guess there the only ones with tru permission to ride on the private land at 8th Street and 137th.<br />Other than that I dont know of much down here really. Since most of Black Bear is closed except for the tamer trails. <br /><br />Also i have pretty much street tires right now. So definitely need a 4x4 buddy if I get adventurous <br /><br />Sent from my Galaxy Nexus using Tapatalk 2<br /><br />

  4. Sounds good. Probably take a wheel off today to clean up and verify. <br />If it is 40mm then the wheels i like that are 16x8.5 and +18mm offset. Giving that the offset calculator is right. Would give me 3mm more clearance inside and outside would extend out 41mm past stock. Which will fit very nicely IMO. <br /><br />Sent from my Galaxy Nexus using Tapatalk 2<br /><br />

  5. I have been running the Valvoline Next Gen High Mileage oil. Usually you can get it cheap at Walmart like posted above. Plus, if it has as much recycled oil as claimed; then maybe we can say were helping the environment.

    Plus check advertisements for local auto parts stores. Usually they will have it on sale for ~2xx a quart plus $2-5 off any filter. Which I then usually pick up the Napa Gold or Mobil 1 filter depending who has the sale.

  6. When its time, I'd support Fluerys and just order some from him. T6 Aluminum, threaded and Powder coated.

    Most of the machine shops around me would charge about ~$150 just to CNC cut/mill the spacers. No threading and I would still have to get em powder coated afterwards.

  7. Guys, need some knowledge here. I have been scouring the web and I cannot find the stock wheel specs for my wheels. This is driving me bonkers atm.

    Reason is, I am wheel/tire shopping. Not quite ready to buy. But getting my "wish list" down.

    These are the wheels I have that I need the specs for:

    Factory SE 15x7 6spoke alloy wheels.

    These are the wheels I am looking at:

    Level 8 Scorpion 16x8.5 available in 18mm or -6mm offset. Depending on stock wheel specs determines which ones would provide the fit I am looking for.

    TIA!

  8. On the topic of trans coolers. Which line is in and which one is out on the radiator for the tranny. Installing a Hayden 678/9 this week. Was thinking of just bypassing all together. As I think my rad part may be clogged. When cold when I go in drive. Takes a sec to engage drive. But reverse is instant. Trans fluid is nice red not burnt smelling. <br />Live in South Florida so no cold temps. <br /><br />Sent from my Galaxy Nexus using Tapatalk 2<br /><br />

  9. As I said in my post above. Pull your distributor cap. Then remove the cover in the distributor that covers the coil and ignition module. You can pull those using a phillips. Check and see if your coil is shorting out to the distributor. Plus check the module for any damage.

    Those symptoms are what I had when my coil ground out, then eventually fried the module. But if you can catch it early enough. You can find the coil solo online for fairly cheap. Over replacing the whole distributor like I did.

  10. Thanks for the info on the ride quality.

    Arent there metal framed pet barriers? Hmm. Most of the metal ones just use tensioners to keep pressure to keep em up. If you get the net, could try that spray that is supposed to keep dogs from chewing your couch etc.
