265/75r16 duratrac from Goodyear, they are converted to approximately 31.8 tall and 10.5 wide per all the different Goodyear specification and other sites like discount tire. I'm in process of installing a 3inch lift. I got the new springs and Rancho shocks in the rear today and tomorrow hopefully the front lift...

Last night we hit big snow storm up by MT Shasta but we made it thru. we are back home and now have the next 6days off. hopefully I will get some things done with the pathy. I've already started laying all the pieces out and am getting the tires done Thursday(32 inch Duratrac's)....so wish me luck. Once I figure out how to post pictures I will get them up... yea I finally get to start in on upgrades...lets hope I don't end up like this LOL

If you're a Nissan guy first and want to get a v8 get a 5.6 from a titan or armada. 305 hp plus you could have something completely different . If I had the time and $$$ I would be really looking into project. And stay true to the brand...gotta admit it would be really cool..

Just curious, how much...

Yea 7000 gets old though as after 22yrs of keeping the rubber side down. Just got done with blizzard type conditions here in Wyoming. I have a feeling it's not going to be a good winter this year.already ran in the snow 4x and haven't yet got into the hard stuff. But hey we still have a job when so many don't. There is a get together up by my neck of the woods tomorrow that I would have liked to go and start to get to know other's on here. Elbe area is a good place to wheel for new/experience...looking forward to making new friends.

Thank you. I have to say, we seem to have a similar way of thinking, I don't think one needs to build up to the clouds to get a good ride. If I want to get crazy then I'll go get the quads out. I can respect the hard work you do on the house, its your castle and that takes a lot of time and effort to get it done. My pathfinder is same color as your truck for the time being. Probably am going to match the titans color. I am going to get the duratrac's and same style rims also kinda make twins...but color can always change. ONLY issue I keep running into is time, never enough for me with only 4-5 day's home from work. The rest of the time I'm working 24/7 with the wife driving.maybe when you get your truck done and mine finished we could get a 3-4 day trail rally together with a bunch of the other pathy pals...just a thought..

Btw update. New tires being installed next week. I went with the Goodyear duratrac in 265/75r16 or a 32/11.5 I will be trying to get the suspension installed next week time and weather permitting. I will be stripping and restoring the rims that are already on the truck. Along with tune up.

Be great idea for hunting season. BUT might scare the innocent young people seeing a couple rifles or compound bows hanging on the Windows. Maybe if I tint the Windows wouldn't be so scary. LOL

The only thing that scares me about the guard dogs are that they are a retread. The carcass are not guaranteed to match. You could end up with heavy-light tire combination on one side or on same axle. I'm going to be trail riding with this truck about 50/50 trail vs road. Don't mind some noise just not to loud. Thx for information.

Yes. The duratrac's are really good in the heavy E ratings. Hvy truck. But are they as good on the much lighter pathfinders? Thx that's one for duratrac

Need some input from y'all. I'm looking at some different tires to go on my 95 pathfinder. I'm not sure which is most trail worthy for Pacific northwest type terrain. I have been leaning towards the duratrac's due to my having them on my Titan and really like how they ride, but thats a full size truck. SO here's my list. 1) Goodyear duratrac 2) Goodyear authority 3) Mickey Thompson radial stz 4) Mickey Thompson radial mtz 5) Mickey Thompson radial atz-p3 6) dick cepek fun country 7) dick cepek mud country 8) firestone destination mt 9) bf Goodrich mt 10) hankook dynapro mt 11) fierce attitude mt I will be running around the 285-75r16 size. I didn't know the rims I have on truck are $225 to replace. So I'm not going to get new rims, just best possible tires in the $165-$235 range. Any and all advice or opinions will be greatly appreciated in my decision making process. Thx y'all. I will post the before I start the build and after. Once I figure out how to from home and this note2' LOL

Anyone have any information on HID lights. Daughter had them installed. They don't have a a hi/lo setting. I can't get the guy who installed the system to tell me anything as he is in jail. He told daughter it only has one setting. Does this sound normal.

I will check both area's out, don't know about who installed the alarm. Was only told it came from dealer with it installed.

Thx for the information. I will check it out..

That is the plan. Right now I've been repainting all the parts so they match, I have herd both good and bad. More good though. Been told trick is to go slow and make sure to torque every thing twice. Being a trucker I only get so much time when home and between the hunting and honey do list.

I'm using the complete lift kit from 4x4parts.com,, comes with the Rancho shocks and the hd torsion bars. The shocks are the rs5000' same with steering stabilizer. The rear springs are 3 inch taller than stock. With a 12000 lb winch being placed in front I think it's all going to balance out..

Same here, xe with tire rack, in process of building her up. Installing a 3inch lift with new springs Rancho shocks,torsion bars, uca, steering stabilizer and braces. Also have just replaced tune up issues. Plugs,wires,cap rotor, filters. New headlights HID. Styles

Where would I find that on a stock alarm. If I can fix it that way then it would be money saved..

Any ideas about using the space under back seat where I hv a very small bit of rust. I was thinking of cutting it out about the size of 1+1 or that of a small gun safe. Weld in and seal. Then incase bottom in foam. Be good place to store hand gun in back country and lock up valuables. Could also be great spot for a hidden subwoofer?? Ps..I have a cwl for Wa and legal to carry..not a gun nut..

A cooler from Nissan Titan are excellent at dispersing heat, I have one from an 04 titan with tow package as stock option. My transmission rarely runs hotter than 175deg. I replaced it in place of the stock one. I also run trans fluid at one part Lucas trans fluid to nine parts Nissan compatible sin/blend fluid. Transmission shifts very smooth and very little noise notable.my 95 has 234000 on it. Before I got the new cooler the truck had a electric fan with thermo sswitch and a toggle switch in cab so I could turn it on,off at my choice just like my semi truck has set up.

heck, the alarm on my 95 goes off at the slightest movement, had to pull the horn relay or pull battery post. I can't seem to find the fuse to pull, or power source. I don't need dead truck in morning. I think I'll go to car toys for new reliable alarm system.

Looks like the English like the Buick swap, your jy must have a bunch of dead Buick engines waiting for a new chance of life..I missed thr chance to get the 4.3/231 out of a rear ended grand national with only 85k on it. The jy got a whopping $8000 for it. To rich for my blood...

If you still have it or it returns try the spare tire rack on back, there is a striker there also under the door on exterior of truck, bad contact there caused mine to act same way until I replaced it.

What is that in, the brake buster is on left side of engine bay. How much work was involved

Has anyone herd of anyone doing a 231 swap. These engines have much more power and get better fuel mileage. I had one when I was much younger in a 77 Chevy short bed. I was able to make it a 385 bhp machine. Not sure it would work in a pathy wo a sas though...Just wandering, I'm sure it would be a really fun truck to drive with that kind of power.
