Good choice on the skinny tires! I'm wondering, were there any reasons you chose the R51 over your R50 other than money?

Should be a fun project, welcome to the forum! People have adapted XJ and TJ bumpers to work before, so perhaps those can help give inspiration for sturdy mounting of your bumper.

Should work. Looks like those wheels have 4.75" of backspacing, so if you want to go with a larger tire in the future it won't work, but for a 31x10.5 you'll be good.

I believe plastic is black and aluminum is silver, may be wrong on the color of the plastic ones.

Pretty low miles, will be interesting to see what that bumper looks like when it's done!

Glad to hear the wheels aren't in the scrap heap! Sounds like the roof rack is proving more than practical enough to make up for it's looks.

Deleted some duplicate threads and plopped this into the regular R50 section (as it isn't an FAQ per se). (Note: if you're on TapaTalk OP, apparently it doesn't make it clear if you've posted a thread successfully - you probably have, so go back and check if it's there before trying again.)

You'd be experiencing no change in exhaust note because it sounds to me like your resonator fell off, that doesn't make much of an impact on exhaust note. Mine fell off too due to rust on my Infiniti, and I chopped it off my 4Runner so I didn't smash it on rocks. If it broke off at the main muffler you may have a hard time repairing it if at all possible, but if the pipe just broke somewhere in the middle you could probably cobble something together to route it out behind the mudflap or something.

Huh, I've never heard of a master cylinder upgrade on an R50. Would a combination of this and @hawairish's disk brake swap yield some great results for those with big tires and/or towing? ?

Welcome back! Rig is looking good. I'm still torn on if I like the Xterra racks on those, but it does look like a clean install. I'm sad the Lego's are gone though. ?

Sweet rides @OneUp, can't wait to see more about them!

Moved from "86.5-89 WD21 Pathfinders" to "90-95 WD21 Pathfinders".

2 inches is the general limit, with a spring lift being safer for the CV's than a spacer lift. Since you seem interested in taller, your only option is a sub frame drop (SFD). If you do some searching you can find lots of information about those on this forum. The limiting factor isn't the fact that the vehicle is unibody, it's the fact that it has IFS, so CV angle is the limiting factor.

It is only each alternate month that is themed, so you can post up whatever pic you want in the in between month (Some people will never see snow). It is a kind of rule, but a loose one. For example, water crossing nominations may be considered if there is a mud crossing, the truck is in water, or crossing the road in a torrential rainpour. If you post up a pic with no water in sight, then that will be removed.

November 2019: No Entries

X2 Welcome to the forum by the way! There's a ton of good tech info here.

I'm guessing you're on mobile, on desktop it says it under his username.

Those NISMO wheels are sweet, I do like the look of the older QX4 wheels but those are so much better. Sounds like that dealer didn't know what he had!

Sounds like you've got a pretty neat rig, how long have you had it? Also, got some more pics of that bumper? Looks cool from the side profile!

If you don't physically test fit make sure you measure the center bore, if they're coming off a Chevy or Jeep it may be too small. Looks right from the pic though.

I'm sure something could be arranged!

I do consider Michigan midwestern, not sure what else I'd say it would be, but to be fair Michigan is pretty thoroughly isolated from everywhere else lol.
