I'm in Fort Collins..... Check out RoninWeelers.com....they are a colorado based nissan group. I would be happy to help with the install. Matthew

My hubs are warm after driving, but not overly hot. check the brakes, if nothing is wrong there....guess its normal. Matthew

Maybe I missed the in-depth discussion about gears....could you be so kind as to point me in the right direction? Matthew
-
How close do they need to be???...I thought that there is some tolerance in gear ratios not being exaclty the same.

My 87 Pathfinder (C200/R180A) came with 4.6 gear ratio. I believe that some HardBody trucks and Pathfinders came with the H233/R200A 4.6 gear combo. Also some or the early model Xterra's came with the H233/R200A and 4.9 gear ratio. Matthew

I plan to use "the same old axle".....my goal is a better IFS than what we currently have or what is available now while keeping cost WELL BELOW the price of a sas. I do not know if this is possible, however, i will explore the options anyway. Matthew

***FEELER*** I have contacted a local suspension fabrication shop about making some new UCAs for my 1987 Pathfinder. I also expressed interest in removing my torsion bars and replacing them with some coil-overs!!! My goal is to do something like the TrailMaster suspension lift setup but remove the unpleasant side effect of the lowering of the torsion bars. I am looking for two things: 1.) Suggestions…. Any suggestions would be really helpful. 2.) Anyone else interested in this??? I do not have an idea of prices as of yet, however, this is just to see if anyone is interested in the idea. Matthew

I reciently did the 3inch BL on my 87 and the only things that i extended were the steering fluid res. line and the actual steering shaft. NO gas lines at all. Matthew

I am planning to swap a H233B into the rear of my pathfinder with 4.88 gears that i am in the process of buying. I also am working on getting some 4.88 gears for my C200 then the idea is doing as GrimGreg said "combining D44 knuckles with the H233b (in my case it will be a C200) center" Is there another gear issue to deal with? Matthew

I will be exploring this topic fairly soon. I plan to use the C200 out of the rear of my 87 Pathfinder as a Solid Front Axle. The issues are: 1.)$$$$$ 2.)$$$$$ 3.) See 1 and 2 4.) The "pumpkin" needs to be "moved" to the drivers side. (If I remember correctly.) Running a solid axle with the "pumpkin" in the middle leads to it smacking other stuffs I will let you know how my adventure pans out. Matthew

Manual transmission TSB
McClurgM replied to madkiwi's topic in Technical Service Bulletins & Recall Information
Quote: Does this apply to the transmission that was used with the 4cyl engines??? Does the TSB apply for the 4cyl engine transmission? Are the 4cyl trannys the same as the v6? I figured the that Gl-4 issue applies to it anyway. Matthew -
Manual transmission TSB
McClurgM replied to madkiwi's topic in Technical Service Bulletins & Recall Information
Does this apply to the transmission that was used with the 4cyl engines??? I believe that they are the same tranny but i wanted to ask anyway!!! I have both a V6 and a 4cyl Pathfinder and wonder if both need to be done or just one of them. Also would using a synthetic hurt the as both of them have over 225K on the odo??? Thanks Matthew -
After installing a 3 inch body lift, my steering wheel squeaks when i turn. Is there something that I need to lube or fix? Thanks! Matthew

How difficult is it to swap in the C200A and H233B into a 1987 4cyl Pathfinder?? (currently the R180A and the C200 rear) Also do i need to do any mods to fit 4.88 gears from a C200 into a C200A?? Matthew

Not modify the front R180/R200. Use the C200 from the rear of my 87 and use it as the front.

I have been told that I can not make a 3rd member into a front axle. I would like to do the following if possible: 1.) Swap the H233B from a donor 1987 pathfinder into my 1987 4cyl Pathfinder 2.) Use the C200 that is in my 1987 Pathfinder to make a front solid axle. ( cut the ends off and weld on some knuckles ) 3.) Use the H233B 5.13 gears from AC and the R200A 5.13 Gears also from AC (the R200A gears will be placed into the newly cut and welded front C200 axle) Is that even possible? What about the "pumpkin" placement? does it need to be off-set to fit in the front? if so toward the driver or pass? If this is possibe it would allow the usage of both front and rear ABR lockes!! On solid axles!! how sweet would that be??? Matthew P.s. 88pathoffroad You are AWESOME!!! You know EVERYTHING! P.s.s. I love this Forum! Everyone is so helpfull here....thanks!!!

What exactly is a 3rd member? Is the H233B a 3rd member? How about the C200? Thanks Matthew
