I'm sad to say that this might be the end of my R50. The transmission is dumping tranny fluid out & is all messed up. It could just be a seal or a hose but the problem is in order to do even that fix the tranny would have to come out, since I do not have the facilities I have to go to my mechanic & I know just to pull out & put the tranny back in will be around the $800-1000 mark. If it's just a seal I'd be looking at about $1000-1200 all the way around (being that the seal only cost $15 but tranny fluid & a new filter & such will up it a bit), & then theres no guarantee that its just a seal thats gone bad. If its that the transmission is going bad & the leak continues b/c of the pressure build up then I'll have to either rebuild or replace the tranny on top of the monies already spent (and being, as I said before, that I have no garage or facilities I'd have to "out-source" the work again), which means... this is probably it for the R50. Its hard for me to justify dumping so much money into it with only a 50/50 chance of it working right. I'm going to sit on it for a couple of days but being that I work 40 hrs a week as a janitor & pay for college on my own theres not a whole lot of liquid cash at my disposal.

I say, don't listen to everyone about getting your R50 checked out thoroughly before you do anything, yada-yada. If you want to upgrade your suspension I say do it. You can get you engine checked out then too.

The way the rear tire carrier is if it doesn't come with one it can't be simply switched over.

3 of my 4 were ripped off offroading (the only one not ripped off while wheelin' got ripped off when I had a blow-out on the interstate), so I'm no help. sorry man

I say, salvage what you can & try & grad another Pathy. I've had mine for more than 10 years & when the time comes that its ca-put, I'm swapping junk over to another one. Sorry to hear about the Pathy, always sad when one gets hit & destroyed instead of just running its course & eventually dieing on its own

Why the hell not. I'll play along:
Sorry the picture is hazey but I cant adjust it. but You can see my half-sleeves fine (they're like 10 years old now)
The backpiece in progress (this was from over a year ago, sorry I dont have an updated photo)
And the newest addition, on my collar bone. No its not Asian symbols that I dont that I cant read, or or Hindu (which a number of people have asked me). I had my best friend, an Athiest Iranian model, verify & make absolute positive it was correct in the strictest terms... it says "infidel" in Arabic...

He's no traitor he's just smarter than the rest of us...
& sorry I don't really know anyone lookin for an R50 right now.
I guess I need to get off my arse & build a front winch bumper this spring & install my SFD lift & install my snorkel, oh & install my lockers... too much crap not enough time

Adam, when did you get that nice tan?....

I've ran 33x10.5 on 15x8 rims with 3.75" of BS with no rub on the strut tower & very very little on the front fenders with the 2" AC lift

Damn, Dean beat me to it, in all fairness he probably said it better than I could anyhow. As someone who has had gone through water crossing that wasn't as high or higher than my hood & destroyed my engine because of it (see the sig pic).
You can always route it though your glove box, this is something I've thought of. But alas I have conceded to functionality over looks with the snorkel, sorry. I want a wheeler thats capable not a driveway/poser queen...

15x8's with 3.5 of BS
last time it was clean (like 2 or so years ago)...
-
BS of a wheel would only matter if you plan on running a wide tire. If you'd run something like 35x10.5 you wouldn't need a low amount of BS but if you'd run like a 33x12.5 you'd still need a rim that was like 10" wide with like 3.5" of BS no matter if it was 33" or 35" tall. Height is a matter of fender clearance, width is a matter of strut clearance.
And BTW who cares what it "looks like" as long as it performs well.

I have noticed that the voters here happen to like LOTS of deep mud, or retarded flex.
I get mentally handicapped flex sometimes... big whoop wanna fight about it, lol

All I can say is that I guess if you get a girl you cant necessarily fool around in the back seat really well...
Yes you can! It just becomes a show with this machine...

Congrats big guy. Awesome pic.

I have a '94 F-250, thats my work truck that I'm using as my daily driver. But I might just turn the truck into my daily driver & be done with the R50. I've had it for 11 years now. Bought it bone stock with 19K miles on it & have since gotten another 206K miles.
