Jealous...enough said.....

We call her the toy truck or the pathy. Toy if grandchildren are talking, pathy if wife or me.

well it's not a pathfinder. but replaced the front rotors on the 04 Titan with some real nice drilled and slotted type to help stop the big Nissan. Thank God I have a real good breaker bar the caliper brace is set at 125lbs per the spec's not easy to break loose. tomorrow will bleed the brakes and give a good test drive.....hopefully the brake fade's will be gone, the stock brakes are pretty weak, the only thing I have always griped about was stopping power....we'll see!

Thanks for the compliment, I was just trying to show the flexibility from both sides, with the lift and tires, there is about 5 inches of total lift over stock . I know what you mean about the NW we are blessed with some of the best way to go out 4wheel driving. I can drive on the longest beach in the world (longbeach) and an anything in between the Nachees trail. A Rubicon style trail in the cascades.

Amazing how fast it swings it's punch. LOL

I haven't tapped into the joints, but I put them thru a little bath of Lucas oil 100wgt and now I have to use the pin every time I open it up, otherwise I'll get slammed with it with the slightest wind. Cheap but has worked great for over a year now.

IIRC that squelch noise is your steering bump stops rubbing metal to metal, your plastic ends have been rubbed away, putting grease on both sides front and rear should stop/,reduce the noise. If you have no zerk fittings then yes it should be pre lubed already in the LBJ. Did you get the CL replaced when you did the ball joints? If that's wore out you can get the loose feeling. Hope your ok, and welcome back.

3/29/57 yes I'm OLD but still kicking. LOL

My 95 xe with 32's and 3 inch lift 10/16 rims.

He can't be Greg, I'm Greg... LOL

I know what you mean by the rub...I have the 3inch lift from 4x4parts. I have 32in tall tires on 16 inch rims with stock backspace. I don't have any rubbing until I back up and wheels cranked hard. I have a 95 xe built for the trail and have no other rib issues. Used heavy duty torsion bars and 3 inch coils. I replaced all the bushings and steering components, also new shocks. I did replace the steering stops with a longer version to prevent inner fender rubbing. You might need to find them at jy? You can see the truck in members rides under my 95 Nissan xe build if you want an idea of what I did to keep rubbing to a minimum. Hope this helps you out...

Bad news, Puget sound area, my daughter told me about a sand colored 95 Nissan Pathfinder that was stolen from a home in the gig harbor area last Monday, the neighbor saw it leave on a silver tow truck in the morning after owner left. I don't know much more than that. She heard it from her hunting friends. We might have a new theft ring starting up.might want to secure your pathfinders a bit until the thefts stop. As stated above, there is a lot of people getting into the wd21 pathfinders lately making the truck more valuable to thieves. It's Better to be safe than sorry. This is a sad time people.

I'm always watching craigslist for parts, I live in pierce county, just south of you, so will definitely be able to catch something like that bumper/winch. I believe you can put a stolen parts alert on craigslist also. IIRC??

DID you look at the armada? At least it's not a minivan on steroids...LOL congratulations on your new Nissan. Wait until you have the itch to go up a gravel road and get a scratch on it...ear muff a must....have fun and enjoy.

Hey there Jim, sorry to hear your truck being stolen, NO matter what it sucks. I have watched the video of the time you got it back from wrecking yard. I'm not sure, but this kinda sounds like someone knew all about the pathfinder and that it was going to be unwatched. It might be someone who knows you has been talking about it and got heard about by the wrong person. Mite want to talk about it with those around you, they might find it through word of mouth. Same thing happened to me with my OLD Bronco, I got it back and the teenagers were caught. I'm not saying that it was any of your friends/family.just someone that shouldn't have been told about it OR something. Sure hope that they catch all the person's involved and get all your truck stuff returned. My deepest sympathy and prayers 4u

Sorry, I missed that in the pictures, my bad, and yes you be looking good...

SO......what happened

Use steel skids, saw a yota a few weeks ago that used aluminum skid plates and paid the price for the lite weight, ripped wide open and cracked his oil tank.

I say it is time to get a good weed torch and burn away.

Liquid tarps for sale at the local hardware store, its called Roundup...LOL

I still have the stock brake lines and like adamzan have had no problems with them. The only thing I did was take a 3inch piece of bicycle bracket to keep the rear brake line slack. I'm cheap when I can. Just got into the odd parts drawer. A bolt here and there. Walla brake line extension...LOL

Come on, be the adult you are and stop this stuff, all the bickering is going to do is get a bunch of good people upset, and then we loose what's the NPORA is, a great forum for the discussion of and exchanging information from like minded folks. Time for the piddly words to go away and focus placed back where it belongs, on people's problems and the advice or information that can be used to help or get help. IF you want to go on gripping then go into the off topic area and then make your own thread, and then those who want to can join your topic. It doesn't belong here where others like myself go to learn about the topic, even if we never chime in because we don't have anything to add that can be helpful, but if I have a question or comment, I don't think it should get overshadowed by someone else being upset with an individual. In the future for us that are trying to learn, take care of it in off topics please. Otherwise please don't say anything else unless it's about the current topic. Thanks again and GOD bless you.

It's a good lift, I have it, was a easier install than I thought it would be, once it settles in and you get the alignment done, you'll be pretty happy, congrats.

Semi truck noise is money to my ears, Ohhhhh that's right I drive one...LOL

I think I would be interested in going that way if it was a lower mileage engine, with the engine in my own rig having almost 240k not sure if it would be a good investment at this time. I'm sure though, I will look into it once I get a low mileage create engine and newer/stronger transmission. Since the pathfinder is paid for I want it to last for a long time. So $300 will be worth the piece of mind I will get with the timing belt not braking.
