My idler pulley seized on me last week and burnt up so I'm currently running no AC in July in OK, which is a no go. I went to AutoZone, O-Reilly, NAPA, Advanced Auto Parts, and even Nissan, and they all pull up the same part. The same one that's shown in the Haynes book too. But it's different from what I have that seized on me. I haven't had a chance to get to a junk yard yet, and I know a picture would help out a lot on this, so I'll get one up soon, but does anyone have one laying around or have any options on where I could find the part I'm looking for? The main problem is that the hole in the middle is too big, and I'm not sure I can get a bigger bolt in through the bracket the tensioner is on. TIA!

I found a website by a member here that may be helpful if you're looking into a SAS. It's www.nissannut.com He's posted all kind of projects on his site with pictures and explanations of the progress as well as a spreadsheet of the parts used and his cost. Could be really helpful in knowing what you're getting into and getting a parts list with some things you might easily overlook.

That's a beautiful front axle. Can't wait to see the kit...

Wow! Looks like you have a hobby to keep you busy for a while. Looks like good work, I'm going to enjoy watching the progress!

Looks good. Hope that little hatch works out well. Did you consider a larger one or even making the back end flip or or even making it a drawer that pulls out? I remember someone building one with a drawer for tools and such a while back, don't remember who it was though... Either way, nice work!

#1 complaint, and really only complaint of any substance, about my console is no cup holders...

AK just shrunk the rear doors down to about 18" IIRC and used that to make the whole thing shorter. But that was just one intermediate step he made in the long run of chopping the whole thing and tubing it... his pathy is what started my interest and inspired me for mods. He did some sick work!!

No, the fronts are quite a bit larger than the backs

Bosch are probably the best, but they are pricey, I just got some Rain-x and used to have ANCO, they are a great upgrade from those...

Thanks 5523, that's what I was curious of.

I wouldn't mind knowing the gearing on the 5 speed behind the V6, I've been curious for a while and haven't been able to find the numbers on it.

Someone earlier this summer (I think) posted some pictures of their chop top pathy, can't remember if it was a two or four door though.... Maybe someone else will remember it better and chime in to who it was

Ok thanks, I'll check that and see if that's where to problem is.

I don't think we ever bled the ABS, talking about the actuator? I was told it was on the passenger frame rail under the rear door, that right? And other than that, that's the order I went in. I'll check that, and yes it does stiffen up when pumped, but then after so many pumps it gets soft again. Someone suggested to me the booster has a leak??? I dunno, will do some more checking this weekend and see what we can find out.
