www.paper-papers.com We sell a wide variety of high quality paper and envelopes. Any size, color and finish you need Paper Cutter. I run a Challenge 305 paper cutter. All fullsize paper is cut down by me to 8.5 x 11 or any custom size needed. I got the job through a friends parents.

Pull the front wheels off and start pulling and moving parts by hand and see if anything has excessive movement. Thats how i was able to diagnose my front end noise. I actually just had my front struts replaced today. If your looking at getting new struts i highly recomment KYB GR2 but make sure to get OEM bearings, mounts, brackets and other hardware. Check under the hood to to see the condition of the mounts

mine makes noise all the time in park or in gear holding the brake. just havent got around to getting underneath it to cut them off. ive had people ask me if there is something wrong with my truck because of the rattling...hahahaha

I purchased a set of Geolander AT/S's in Nov. 2008 and god do i love them. Id say i have 40% left and have put 30k on them. They do great in dry and wet conditions and are wonderful in the snow. Ive only done mild offroading, primarily sandy/muddy conditions and have performed well. I will be purchasing another set when i wear these out! And i got 255/65/16 on factory wheels. Nice job Yokohama!

oh man i totally missed this event! I live in northwest indiana right by lake michigan. I have a black '01 R50 with minor mods. Where abouts in Indiana are you from?

My '01 Pathy is my daily driver, but sometimes i get to drive my dads '07 GMC Sierra, or my moms '07 Honda Accord V6. Or the spare (last choice, hahaha) '01 Honda Civic w/ 194k.

I just installed my missing link today and oh how amazing!!! the bolts were a pain but thats what happens when my rig is almost 10 years old. there was a great difference in just turning off the road to my house. Gonna put it through the real test tomorrow on a patch of road thats terrible. Took a while to get to indiana but i know how shipping country to country goes. I recommend this part to every R50 owner, and for only $50USD shipped, its well worth the wait!

Got an '01 LE with 119k. Drive it daily, approximately 300 miles a week. Averaging 18mpg mixed city/hwy. The beginning of July I got hit by Bambi going 40mph. And i was quiet surprised how well the pathy took the hit. Only had to get a new bumper, headlight, corner light, foglight and the fender banged out. Didnt even dent the hood.

As soon as i saw this post, I had to have the missing link. I emailed Mr. Jackson. and i plan on ordering tomorrow. i cant wait to get it!!!

I recently had this problem with my '01 and i took it to my shop and i had the sway bar links replaced. He showed me where the bushing wore out and the metal was hitting each other. I had both sides replaced for $200, which i thought was fair. Considering the dealer wanted much more...

Ive got an '01 with a magnaflow muffler and stainless steel tubing. only from the muffler back. i didnt want to deal with a whole system, plus it wouldnt be all worth the small performance gain. installed at 80k miles and currently have 112k. Sounds pretty good at all rpm ranges, especially between 4-6k. its a dual in single out, with 2.50" tubing, exiting close to the factory location. trust me, go with magnaflow, you'll be much happier.

So i know this is off topic a little, but ive always tried to convince my dad to get a power programmer for his '07 GMC Sierra. No go. But i recently saw on the 4x4 parts site there a computer programmer called V-Force Plus Performance Module. It say it does the following : * Provides improved performance, acceleration and the ability to monitor your Nissan's information. * Optimizes ignition advance and fuel maps for best HP and drivability. * Select from 14 different screens to monitor throttle position, mass air flow, manifold pressure, fuel economy and air/fuel ratio. * Allows you to monitro driving habits for best fuel economy and performance. * Backlit LED screen I am very skeptical about computer upgrades, but has anybody had experience with this unit???

i got yokohama geolandar at/s's on it. they seemed to do fine in the snow. plus i couldnt afford a set of winter tires and a set of summer tires and switch them out each season... but yes a strap will be purchased before my next outing... thanks for the advice...

Ok, so to start off i am from northwest indiana and in the past 3 days we've got about 24 some inches of snow. Today me and my dad decided to drive up to the lake and have a look around. So we were on our way to Michigan City. Man, oh man, the roads were terrible. But that didnt stop the Pathy. Once in Washington Park though, that was a different story. I was blasting through big drifts and cruizing right along. I slowed down and proceded to go through a gate and thats when it all went south. I sunk like a rock!! LOL. I guess when there are no paths in the snow to follow the going gets rough. Especially when its about 2 feet deep and not plowed. So she sunk down and started spinning. I got to rocking her back and forth but just dug myself deeper. Tried 4hi and 4LO but nothing. Just alot of burning rubber. Close by was a US Coast Guard truck with 5 guys in it looking for kids that were playing out on the ice (i hope they found them). it was a big F350 dually diesel crew cab 4x4, with a plow. Well needless to say we were not going anywhere. Soon after, we saw some people walking down by the lake with with snowshoes on! i realized it was deep when i opened my door and it pushed snow out of the way. haha. Well they helped dig snow out from around the tires and helped push but no go. Eventually an F150 came by and asked if we needed help, but he didnt have a strap or chain. (neither did I, oops!). We tried some more and no luck. We'll, next we saw a half ton ram come up and he had a strap so i asked him if he could pull me out. But before he did tried to pull me out the Coast Guard plowed in front of me, and i went to rocking it again. Well needless to say something magical happened and i was able to rock it out. So all in all i have learned my lesson, ALWAYS CARRY A STRAP OR CHAIN! She may have got stuck, but i was lucky enough to get her out. Hope this was a good story for everybody. At least i didnt get pulled out by a dodge or ford!! j/k haha (i like most brands anyways) Oh and all this happened in a parking lot, not out on the beach.

where else can you get a spoiler besides the junkyard??? price?

i want i want!!!!! i am also looking into getting all new LCA for the rear. i thought about just buying OEM from Nissan, but if yours are cheaper and higher quality thats alot better. Ive got all stock suspension, but have been looking to upgrade the LCA. i dont wheel too often... id think i would just need bushings on both ends, what do you think??? what is the purpose of the flexible joint??? thanks for all your help

Hi, i do believe that is the only grease point...and it should be greased every oil change. i recently greased mine for the first time. mine was a grease zerk, not a rubber plug...but maybe that changed from 2001 to 2003... im sure a veteran on here will be able to describe it better...

why is 2.25 piping too big?? i got it on mine and its awesome....from the muffler back...

well i finally got around to looking and i will soon be replacing the upper arm link bushing...ill post when i get it fixed. thanks for all the help... i know its been a while...but i think i got it solved...

'01 with 98,700 ish...almost to the 100k mark!!! just had 1 02 sensors and the MAF sensor replaced in my time owning it...

thanks alot for the info. ill have to look at the sway bar links and then control arm bushings... will respond back when i figure out the problem

ok so i havent posted in a while, but here i go. i always hear a clunking noise from the rear end of my '01 pathy when traveling over bumps in the road. there is one specific intersection where there is a bump straight across the road and everytime i go over it the clunking noise happens. i dont know what could be wore out...i am slowly approaching 100K and ive never changed the suspension. and i am unaware if the previous owner changed shocks... help please. also posted on nissanforum.com

Jafsiff, I dont know if the flowmasters are reversible, but according to the magnaflow website, all mags are reversible. i got part #12580 from summitracing.com. when i bought it, it was $80...now its up too $105.

i got a magnaflow set up on my '01 3.5 LE...97K miles Got the system installed at 80K Dual 2.25" inlet, single 2.50" outlet. The muffler itself is approx 15" long. Oh and i definately ditched the resonator. Along with an 18" stainless steel chrome slash tip angled out the back. At first it was so quiet, but as i started to drive it more...it got louder. That was in the first couple hundred miles. I guess it just needed to go through a break in period. I think it sounds very good for a V6. Ill try and post a sound clip within the next couple days.
