    I have the same exact gauge, and it always sits at that level (when warm) as well, never higher.

    You did nothing but drop the diff, and got 3-4”? That sounds pretty cool (less involved than an SFD with similar results if I’m understanding correctly?)

    @hawairish, you may be interested to know that now instead of my dome light glowing like yours does, when my switch is in the on position my backup light (but not either of the “puddle” lights) glows even though it’s powered by the relay. If I put the switch in the off position, the dome light glows.

    Well, one diode and one capacitor later, my light setup works perfectly now. So I guess this project is complete unless I add anything to the circuit later. I’m happy to help if anyone has any questions that weren’t covered or wants to see more pictures. Thanks for all your input, I definitely learned by taking on this project

    Spontaneous combustion

    That may very well be the case. It could also make your front end look over cluttered and overdone. Either way, I like the your rig! Seems to be only a few well built white pathy’s running around

    Maybe it would match more if you could get a black “bug guard” on the front of the hood/grille? I have one, and my center grill piece is currently gray due to just being replaced. I’m thinking at some point it’s gonna get painted black, especially if I get some kind of black front bumper

    I spray tinted my fog lights yellow so that’s not going away haha

    Your grill lights look identical to a light I was considering for a backup light. Vision X?
  13. PathyDude17
    Ok, understood. That's the issue I'll be running into if I get new tires.

    @02_Pathy are you currently fitting a full-size spare in the stock location?
  15. PathyDude17
    I have the same problem, but I've noticed it only happens at less than 1/4 tank of gas I come to a stop or brake really hard. I've just assumed its something wrong with the fuel pump (was replaced right before we purchased the vehicle) and filled up ahead of time until I get the chance to look at it.

    Got them all installed.

    I used the exact setup from my wiring diagram (EXCEPT I had to swap the my hookups between pin 87 and 30) to get one rock light and the backup light hooked up before I had to stop. They work exactly as I thought they would, the only thing is the relay “chatters” and rattles when the lights are subject to dimming like the dome light does. I believe a capacitor should fix that, and I’m hoping to get the other rock light wired tonight. Definitely put out a ton of light. Hopefully get pictures up tonight as well

    Never mind, misread something

    So it does improve handling and stiffen up your ride. It also makes your ride stronger, and protects the front suspension from undue stress by linking those lower arms together. I legitimately noticed less body roll in cornering, and I guess its harder to prove that it strengthens the structure of your ride, but that's generally what crossbars do..... Also if you make the crossbar a certain way, it serves as a great mounting point for some skid plates

    Ya, I've heard the same thing about the power band with a CVT transmission. Read somewhere (Car and Driver in the Dentist office?) that Porsche tried to put one in a track car decades ago but the design was banned from competition.
  23. PathyDude17
    That's what I was thinking. Even if I can't get it mounted or a good spare for it until 6 months down the road, at $30 Its hard to turn it down if I have any interest in going that route. Although it had a weird lock on one of the bolts through the spare tire attached to it that I couldn't figure out. Probably pretty normal (security lock of some sort?), but it wasn't something I'd seen before. Ya I also disassembled the latch mechanism and threw that in the trunk

    My friends Altima is cvt. You don’t feel much for shifting, kinda takes the fun out of accelrating
  25. PathyDude17
    I’m really tempted. Junkyard quoted me $30. I even disassembled it and put it in the trunk to protect it from further weathering. It’s in great shaped and the same color as my trim. I just have to think it over and decide if it fits my budget and the direction I want to/am able to take the truck
