Replaced the rear bushings last week to get rid of the "death wobble". Ride is much smoother, drove it 900+ miles last week and what a difference. Going to put the coils and new shocks/struts on hold for a bit, money is being diverted to an entirely different project. I'm still not happy leaving it as is though, going to add a few 2" coils spacers to get some lift and also add 2" wheel spacers to get the tires flush with the wheel flares. Manual hubs are still on the list. I should have parts ordered up this week, get them put on in the next 2-3 weeks.

Did I miss it, but what kind of lift did you put on it? Looks great, I have a '97 as well I'm just starting to tackle.

It is another Nissan but my neighbors, my DD is a 3-series BMW thats pushing 300,000 miles. As far as rear differential, it's whatever it came with from the factory. Could you explain the locker for me? I've come across it being mentioned but never looked into it. Bumpers and winch would be nice but will be further down the road.

I bought my Pathfinder in 2003. Since then I've moved 7 times, put 110,000 miles on it, squeezed five kids into it, and generally pushed it to its limits on terms of towing overladen trailers and boats. I owned a 1971 CJ5 and 1989 4-Runner previously and the Pathfinder outperformed both in terms of towing ability, traction, and all around 4x4 vehicle. This year we upgraded to a 2015 Sequoia, fitting 5 growing kids and camping gear was getting tough. Since it's no longer the family vehicle and not my daily driver, it just sits out front, getting driven 2-3 times a month. It's not worth selling so I turned to here for ideas on what to do with it. I'm not looking for a rock crawler but a semi-overland vehicle. Something to get me to more isolated camping/climbing/hunting spots. Here a list of upgrades I have planned: - manual hubs - 2" AC lift, including new struts and shocks - roof rack - additional lighting (360 coverage, additional front and rear) - cargo organization, drawers, shelving, etc. Possible upgrades or ones for down the road: - 1-2" spacers for front and rear to prevent rake - new wheels with negative back spacing - larger tires up to a 32" - under armor/rock sliders - compressor - gas/water can mounts This is the obligatory picture of how it sits now. Very dusty from sitting and a recent sprinkle. I'm looking for any suggestion or tips, something I may have missed from the numerous threads I've already read. Thanks in advance.
