How do I find out what gears I got? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Alright great to know. My vehicle is going to be daily driven and used on the highway so im glad to hear that you havent had issues with even bigger tires than what I was going with. Btw awesome build!! I have been following your thread and I am amazed at how fast you get stuff done lol

Hello NPORA, in the coming month or so I plan to go ahead and lift my pathy. Yall have given me lots of information over the past 6 months and I have learned a lot. Today I was just going over some threads and reading about Lokka and LSD swaps while bored in class and i was getting confused about gear ratios and stuff like that. Then I watched a video on youtube about gear ratios and they explained it well. Also how they all connect with your engine, trans, tires and diff. Most people haven't mentioned it in any of their mild to mid builds so i figured that as long as you werent doing a sfd and trying to fit 33´+ tires that a regear wouldnt be necessary. Just to make sure I wanted to ask yall if i need to regear and what I can expect in performance changes. I plan on running 32s maybe something like them falken wild peak a/ts. Talked to some guys on instagram and they both said great things about the lr9449 and ac springs so that is what i will go with. Thanks Fletch

I have noticed that after disconnecting the negative battery terminal to do service my sunroof creeps open and doesn’t open in one press. I’m sure it’s a similar problem for you. I looked up Nissan sunroof relearn but before I attempted it, the problem stopped after a week so I never tried it. Weird Nissan @!*% lol Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Happens on mine all the time sometime the rubber rots and the springs start sticking.

All appeared to be oem paint to me. I was very particular when I bought it to go through and make sure the vehicle hadn’t been in a accident. You are correct about the damn 3M tape it did hold on to the paint lol. The second picture is the worse one because under the duct tape it pulled all the paint when It flew up on the highway. Nice to hear that you had a good experience with Maaco, funny how it works but they just opened one a little drive a way from me. I will be interested in seeing how they operate. I have been impressed by their “$399” paint jobs I have seen on YouTube. I will report back when It’s all said in done. I’m hoping to expedite the repair. Thanks Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

It’s &^%*ing ridiculous I’m pissed off about that @!*% Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Correct it appears that it was 3M adhesive Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Buyer beware Nissan Pathfinder Rain/Window Guards My mom bought these for me on Christmas and riding down the highway they flew off and took the paint with them. She says she got them off eBay. I would advise not buying them entirely but I wanted to put them on cause she got them for me. Guess I’ll be calling Maaco now [emoji24] Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

i like these ones as well... https://www.etsy.com/listing/538198468/decal-npora-nissan-r50-vinyl-decal

I would say the oil is not worth going out of your way for. If it’s easy for you to get go ahead , but don’t expect to notice a big difference compared to other full synthetics. Just my two sense but if you did do the research and it does help with leaks might as well try! Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

I currently have in Valvoline maxlife full synthetic high mileage 5w 30 . It was the first thing put in the truck when I got it because I heard it was tough on sludge. I didn’t have any way of knowing how often the previous owner changed oil and if there was sludge or not. So far it hasn’t wowed me but it’s a decent oil. My rear main seal area has a slight damp look to it which makes me think it will go in a few years but for now I am fine. I do not plan on continuing to run Valvoline simply because I’m a sucker for premium oils but go ahead and try it out see if it works! Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

That would make sense. Thanks Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

I don’t want to know my resale value lol. I’m driving this thing till the wheels fall off. But I completely agree with you the last thing I want is to pour all this money in with the lift and tires and then watch the truck fall apart. Thank you for the reassurance!

I completely agree with you. That darn mechanic had me worried. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Very true! Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Exactly what I needed to hear thank you for the advice! Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Awesome thank you so much. I was getting big sad until I talked to y’all. Lol. I will be perfectly content with 2in and I will be mindful when on the trails. Thanks for the info and the trail tips I didn’t know that stuff about the cvs. Have a good night! Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Ok thank you both. Small things wearing out are just fun to fix every once in a while . As long as nobody else ran into any major problems, I don’t think lifting will be a bad decision. Thank you for the reassurance. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Thank you for the quick response. I see how strong the r50 must be after all of that abuse with the sfd and I haven’t gone as far to consider any thing like that . I will really just be happy with 2in in the front with those lr springs in the back, this should be easier on the cv axles. When regarding tires I was gonna throw on some cheap pro comp steelies on 32s and call it a day. Basically all I do is light to medium muddin with friends and I tow a light trailer every once in a while. If you hadn’t done the sfd do you think it would have held up fine at 2in in lift?

A buddy of mines car died and it ended up being a camshaft sensor might wanna look into that as well Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

I would have your fuel pressure tested or do it yourself with a fuel pressure kit just so you know that it’s no the fuel pump. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Hey everyone, today I decided to visit the local mechanic and ask him for any advice he could give me about lifting my Pathfinder. I had already made my decision that I was gonna go with the AC springs up front and the NRC9449 springs in the back. I figured i would talk to the mechanic to gain any info I could be missing about other work like pan hard drop etc. He told me that lifting the vehicle would be a huge mistake I would regret in the future. He said it will cause premature wear to all suspension and steering components and completely devalue the truck. I knew that there would be some periodic work I would have to do like ball joints and and potential cv axle work but he was acting like lifting the truck would make it turn into a repair nightmare. So my question for you guys is have any of y’all ran into any problems as a result of your lift? Anything breaking or needing replace? I have no problem working on my own truck and small things needing replacement is fun for me but I am trying to avoid something I will regret considering this is my daily driver. Please let me know what you guys think. Thank you for your time. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

It might be a little drive from where you live but I just went to Pull a part in Duluth and they got a 97 pathy in the back, if i remember correctly it was in good shape and the headlights were in tack. Im assuming you know of one closer to where you live, it just crossed my mind that i saw one this sunday. lol
