My only worry would be that there'd be big openings on the rear wheels (no manual hubs to block off the openings) that would let in debris and hurt the rear bearings.

Ran into a clearance issue installing Mile Marker 435 hubs with '04 SE wheels. You can see in this picture that the 100mm opening has a small concentric lip (5-6mm?) running along the inside of the opening. This lip is what the small plastic center caps clip onto, and it shrinks the opening down enough so that the manual locking hub won't fit. Here is how far the manual hub will protrude through the opening. I removed the manual hub cap and it didn't help with fitment. And here it is from the back. You can see how the manual hub can't even clear the plane of the wheel, however there is plenty of room around the base of the hub to fit into the wheel opening. If you look at this picture from an old, stickied, post you can see that the hub doesn't mount flush, or on the same plane, as the wheel. It would need to be sitting 3/4"-1" or so into the wheel opening. So my options, I think, are to grind the lip out of the center cap opening, or to buy wheel spacers that compensate for the hub not being able to be set further inside the wheel opening. I don't have a Dremel, but I do have a cordless drill, and I imagine I can find a grinding bit that'll fit in the drill chuck. If I grind the lip, it should be fairly cheap. I would have to do all four wheels so I could rotate them during oil changes or other maintenance. If I buy spacers I won't have to alter the wheels, but it'll cost me $200 or so for the four spacers, which I still need to see if they exist. What do you fellas say?

Where are these DIYs? My center armrest is tearing, and I'd like to fix it up.

Ours beeps and lights up when you lock it, but not when you unlock.

Start here: http://www.nicoclub.com/FSM/Pathfinder/1997_Pathfinder/ec.pdf Scroll down to EC-76, then EC-78, where it'll refer you to EC-209, and EC-290. Here is the parent directory for all R50 Nissan Pathfinders: http://www.nicoclub.com/FSM/Pathfinder/ It helps to provide this link when helping others.

Did you have any luck?

I'm not a technician or anything, so I was just throwing out possible avenues to look into. Try reading some of the links here: https://www.google.com/search?client=opera&q=testing+fuel+injectors&sourceid=opera&ie=UTF-8&oe=UTF-8

OP, it would be helpful to take some pictures/video of the parts you're referring to.

Bad fuel injector(s)?

Small update: MM 435s arrived in the mail. I won't be able to install them until this weekend, but I figured I'd pull them out of the box and oogle them for a few minutes. Since the opening of the wheel is 100mm (3.937") and the widest diameter of the MM hub is 98.425 (3.875") then the wheel should have enough clearance to fit over the MM. However, I've been told there is a small lip on the inner opening of the wheel, that runs concentric to the hub. I'll have to see if this ends up being a clearance issue that requires a spacer.

What model spacers did you use?

Take a look at the transfer case manual here: http://www.nicoclub.com/FSM/Pathfinder/2004_Pathfinder/tf.pdf It may point you where you need to go.

I got some good feedback from RockAuto, and they said they would look into correcting their catalog, as well as contacting Timken, who has the parts listed incorrectly on their parts catalog. (****** source material) I'm also writing to Timken now, and am half-serious about driving 10 minutes down the road to their nearby New Hampshire factory to explain it to them in person. (who am I kidding... I'll just email them.) Thanks for your help so far.

Thank you. I just realized this myself after 300 google searches for the last hour. I already emailed RockAuto, but I'll send another one their way. Do you mind if I just copy/pasta your explaination in my email?

2004 SE Automatic 4x4 Timken SP500701 http://www.rockauto.com/en/moreinfo.php?pk=1116733&cc=1431977&jsn=13 I ordered two from RockAuto for the front end, and the shop that's installing them just called to say that they are the wrong parts, and won't fit. They also said that I just need to replace the bearing, not the entire assembly. I'm about to call RockAuto to confirm that this is the correct part for the 2004 SE 4x4, but also I need to order the bearings alone. Is it two replacement bearings per side? What are the part #s? I see Front outer: http://www.rockauto.com/en/moreinfo.php?pk=4583418&cc=1431977&jsn=10399&jsn=10399 And, Front Inner: http://www.rockauto.com/en/moreinfo.php?pk=4583331&cc=1431977&jsn=10400 Thanks.

I spent some time browsing through all the threads, but there wasn't much info on practical uses, or benefits over Torque Pro. It seemed like it was a lot of, "how do I get it to connect to my car?"

I just downloaded Car Gauge Pro ( signed up for Google surveys, and you get 15-30¢ per survey ---> free apps/games/etc...) and have heard that it offers some additional options over Torque Pro, which is what I've used for several years to monitor my cars and view/clear CEL codes. What sort of options do I have with Car Gauge Pro specifically?

I'm all jacked up on coffee, and the dog told me to buy the Mile Marker 435s for the hell of it. So I did. Turns out there is an active 30% off coupon code for AutoZone when you spend more than $50.00, and ship to your home. Code is SURPRISE30 My order was over $75.00, so I got the free shipping automatically, but then saved another $25.50. No reason not to buy them now.

Just heard back from Mile Marker customer support, and the diameter of the hub base is 3 7/8" (3.875"). Can anyone confirm the diameter of the center cap opening on the wheels pictured above?

I just emailed Mile Marker to inquire about exterior dimensions, and to suggest that they add the R50 Pathfinder to their list of Nissan compatible Nissan vehicles.

Thanks for the response. Can you tell me the diameter of the hubs? I have these factory wheels, and want to make sure that the MM hubs will fit with the center caps remove.

http://www.autozone.com/drivetrain/locking-hub-4-wheel-drive/mile-marker-locking-hub-4-wheel-drive-/140057_5532_1374/ Just want to double check. Also, what additional parts will i need? I've seen conflicting info with regards to extended studs. The Pathfinder sees mostly tarmac use as a DD, but will be driven out on sandy beaches/deep puddles/mud occasionally. Thanks.

I like what you did there. We have a rear-facing carseat for our newborn positioned on the middle of the rear seat, and don't want our dog, or any other potential object hitting her in the event of a rapid braking maneuver.

Ended up ordering this pet barrier from smile.amazon.com Petego K9 Guard Universal Pet Safety Barrier https://smile.amazon.com/gp/product/B00MV0CJDS/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o00_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1 I'll post up some pics and a preliminary review once I get it in the back of the truck. Just realized it was $44.00 yesterday, and $29.99 today. Online with their CS to see if I can get a small refund.

My wife and I just had our 1st child on July 4th, and as mostly clueless new parents with a dog we want to put up a pet barrier so our newborn won't get run over when the dog sees a squirrel out of the window. What do you guys recommend? Amazon.com has a ton of options, but I'd like some actual feedback. Thanks. Bonus pic of the accused: 55lbs. of love.
