  1. I did some searching and found some posts of what my problem/symptom might be.. I was driving one day and all of a sudden it was a small bang/thud like it popped out of gear... had to coast to the shoulder. None of the gears work, doesn't matter what the transfer case is in... motor jus revs. It was all of a sudden and it wasn't the dreaded reverse signs of going out that your transmission is going to die thing...

     

    So i've read that it could be either be input shaft or the torque converter. Anyone care to chime in that has had this type of thing happen to them.

     

    Also has anyone changed an input shaft on an auto? Difficult? I've done motor swaps, mustang t5 tranny rebuilds, etc... so i am mechanically inclined..

  2. I hate to sound ignorant, but where is the burp button and what is the burping procedure?

     

    I'm scheduled to drop it off tonight for a flush and fill. Thought I may try burping prior.

     

    how i do it is make sure the radiator cap is the highest point in the cooling system..(park it on an incline or jack the front up a little) then open it and start the car and run it till it gets to normal op temp to when the thermostat opens and allows coolant to start flowing throughout the block.. you'll start to see it bubbling and stuff.. pretty much when it stops bubbling is when the air is out..then turn off and cap.. don't forget to fill the overfill tank..

  3. This is what I found with a little help from the :search: button...

    What about Pro Comp? Wouldn't the 324509 mensioned above be a little short if you use to disconnect the rear swaybar?

     

    I've searched the Pro Comp's catalog and found that 325500 is a little longer:

    Extended Length (in): 25.740 in.

    Collapsed Length (in): 15.490 in.

     

    If anyone is interested, here's the info for Rancho RS9000X series that fit 87-85 Pathfinders:

  4. Did a little wheeling yesterday but need to upload the pics when I get home from work today. Still didn't re-index the t-bars...rather when out to have fun instead of work on the truck..hahaha.. I went to test out the MT's and the OEM manual hubs which worked like a charm.

     

    few far inbetween....I've come to the conclusion that.... I want to go SAS...but parts here in hawaii are limited...
