Hello All!
Well my 2 month long search for the right Pathfinder is finally over, and thanks to this Forum I knew what to look out for and how to recognize a good one. I needed a solid backup and play 4x4, got my '12 Mazda 3 HB for my daily and the wifes '14 CX-9 is by no means a trail /camping rig and basically off limits
I managed to find an original owner, garaged (no rust), never wheeled, '95 SE with a manual, LSD, 4 wheel discs, leather and every available option but brush guards. It has 175k, mostly Hwy, it is in near perfect condition and runs better than any I checked out with a lot less miles. Has complete service records and the TB/WP, all fluids, and ignition were all done less than 10k ago. Tires are new, unfortunately he put on 235s but that will be upgraded before to long. About the only wear part that has never been replaced is the clutch but it still feels great.
With all the big service stuff out of the way, I get to use the rest of my budget making it a solid trail to moderate wheeling ring. going to do 1.5-2.5 suspension lift, Rancho RS9000XL's, upgrade the steering, and some A/T 31's. This summer I'm moving close to my in laws and my father in laws is going to teach me to weld by building some bumpers together.
So stoked I found this one, my patience paid off
