    Pulls left when accelerating at highway speed

    Most likely worn suspension link bushings in the rear suspension. 

    If you have an automatic transmission, just park on smooth level pavement, with trans in park and brake off, have someone rock the truck forward and back while watching the ends of the links at the frame and axle housing. If you see movement more than a couple of mm, the bushings are worn and allowing the rear axle shift and inducing rear steer effects.

    It's a manual transmission,  but I think you're on the right track. I'll take a closer look at it. Thanks

    Make sure the bushings in the caster bars are not worn and that the hole/mounting point in the frame is not flogged out.

    Went through that before. Bushing needs positive location to be effective. 

    Are caster bars part of the front suspension? If they are what I'm thinking, those bushings were also replaced and the frame was not flogged out as you say.

    Intermediate parking brake cables

    Yes I do. I have had no luck finding the drivers side. They evidently made some changes mid-year. I thought i found them, but when they came in they were incorrect. I called a Nissan dealership and went on the Nissan website (UNAVAILABLE).

    I'm kinda desperate here! i have called salvage yards within a 600 mile radius to try and locate intermediate parking brake cables for my 1988 Pathfinder, with no luck. Currently my drivers side is bad, I was given a boat by my father at the end of last summer and can't launch it till I have functional parking brake. ANY help would be greatly appreciated, (New, Used, Somewhere that can rebuild them?)

     

    Thanks,

    Back Dome Light

    My 88 Pathfinder rear dome light likes to randomly come on. I haven't been able to locate the device on the hatch that turns it on when you open it. Can anyone tell me where it is located so I can clean it?

     

    TIA

    Right rear parking brake cable

    HELP!!

    I have an 88 Pathinder SE and my left rear parking brake cable is bad and would like to change both at the same time. I can find the left rear on line, but not the right rear. Does anyone have any information on this? I've even been to the Nissan sight and entered my VIN # and it has no info on mine. Any help locating a source is greatly appreciated.

    Steering Stabilizer

    Quick question:

    I purchased an 88 Pathy from a one owner a few years ago and I'm getting ready to replace the ball joints and A frame bushings here soon. I've noticed mine has no stabilizer shock and was wondering if some of them didn't come with them. Also any suggestions on what I should purchase that will have all the components I need to put it on.

     

    Thanks in advance,
