What year Pathfinder? I'm only familiar with the wd21's IFS. If your talking about just your shock absorbers (or dampeners) then it shouldn't matter either way. If it's a MacPherson strut then they usually have a right and left. If you haven't noticed a difference in ride or tire wear I wouldn't worry about it. Take it with a grain of salt until someone else chimes in. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Driver side right or looking at the truck from the front? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Mounted my walkies to the a-pillar. I always forget I have them now I won't. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

You rear axle will do the same thing. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

That's normal. They will turn opposite directions for an open differential, or turn the same direction with a limited slip or locked differential. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Finally put the old school Thule roof bars up my grandma gave me. $30 in hardware; 8 rubber coated jacknut type deals and 8 1/2-20 bolts. I was worried 2 per side wouldnt be enough but damn is it stout! Once I have time to make a roof basket I'll re use the mount points and design around them. Now it will be way easier to throw the yaks up top. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

That looks way cooler imo. I saw a few sets at the junkyard yesterday, I might have to go get them and do this. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Yeah it looks like I can do some cutting to make them fit. I think the end product would be worth it. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

For the 1989 model year. Has anyone followed the FSM instructions for servicing the air conditioning? It says to fill form high side, vacuum it out then fill again from high side them fill from low side after that. All this with the engine off. I thought you should only fill from the low side with the compressor running? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Discovered my lightbar is in fact not busted! The previous owner mounted the relay to the side of the fender pretty exposed, and it got wet one too many times. I put the new relay in the open spot in the relay box, so hopefully it stays dry from now on. It feels good to be bright again. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

What year? Sounds like it could be a fuel problem. When you turn the key to the ON position, do you hear the fuel pump prime up? It'll sound like a faint whine, you have to really listen for it to notice. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

That makes it 100 times better haha Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Cardboard. Using a sharpie draw whatever mating surface/part on the cardboard and poke holes where each respective bolt goes, then just put the bolts in the holes. Makes it super easy to know exactly where each one goes back. Couple this with some extra large zip locks so you don't loose the bolts if it's a longer project. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

I would think dry is fine. Only reason I ever put rtv on gaskets is for extra leak protection from fluids. I guess air is a fluid, but I don't think it would need it. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

I'm going to replace all bushings when I do this, probably to poly. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

I read in another forum you can just remove the compression rod from the control arm to do it. It's rust free so I think I can go that route. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Thanks RC. I'll be addressing this in a few weeks when my semester is up and I have some free time. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Great idea! I still have the old races lying around from when I did bearings on my ranger a while back. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Also, if the hole is pretty messed up, which as of now looks like it probably will be, if I brace over it with some steel do you think it will mess with my alignment? Seems like it would be easier and faster than cutting the whole square plate off and putting a new one on to keep the mounts geometry the same. I can do that if required though.

Well that's a bummer. Everything looks oem and not modified at all, I wonder what happened to it. Think I could make one myself and weld it on? I know how to turn parts, not the best welder but I have acces the newest Miller welders on the market at my school and have experience with stick, mig and tig. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Think this is the cause of my series of pop noises when I accelerate through a turn? I know it's not cvs and everything else is tight. It's hard to see without pulling the lower control arm completely off, but it looks like it's starting to tear through the metal on the welded mount. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Yeah I know I can measure. But figured I try and see if anyone had any idea about the weird markings for these wheels. They're not like any I've seen before. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

J15 x 6JJ DOT TOPY 1619 87 S3.8 NISSAN All I can tell is they're 6" wide and 15" diameter. I'm trying to figure out the offset and pcd so I can try and trade on my local 4x4 forum for some 31"s. Is the S3.8 positive 3.8" offset? Seems like that could be correct for how far they sit in the wheel well. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
