Well shoot, you don't run around with all of 'em on all at the same time. Just use what you need.
Nice setup on da roof, man! I like to stealth look. Maybe some day I'll be able to get a 4-door in black and do the same kinda thing. 
i'll get you a nice clean black 4-door if you sell me your white 2-door.

So this morning i start up my truck like i alway do in the morning and waiting for all the lights to go off aswell as the oil pressure to come up on my gauge. Then i shut the door to go back inside and the truck locked itself! Now it has done this befor and it only douse this when it is cold out side. If you live in houston texas it can be hot one day and over nite it well be cold in to the 40s but was gust wondering if there is something that i can change or fix so this douse not happen agin. I got lucky and was at home and got my other keys but dont wont this to happen away from home like at work or somthing. I did have a oem alarm but changed it out with a viper alarm so i do not know if that has anything to do with it aswell. dont really remmber if it did it with the alarm that nissan put in.
thanks
HEY!!!
i've seen you before! i saw you a few weeks ago on Rhodes Rd. as i was turning into my neighborhood. you flashed your lights at me.
check out Texas Nissan Off Road. there's not many of us there, but it's a great place for info on the next meet/greet or wheelin' weekend.

time to swap in a V8. unless it's a VG30E, it's going to take some custom work to fit anything else, so might as well make it worthwhile.

i know people swear by the Staun deflators, but i've tried them on a friend's truck and it's still not as convenient as my ARB EZ-Deflator (or similar). it's designed to remove the valve core but keep it contained within the tool. it has a gauge to monitor air pressure as you air down. you can air down 34s from 38psi to 15psi in about 15sec. and at $35, it's much cheaper than the ~$60 Staun deflators.
for as much beach fishing as i do, they're a worthy addition to the glove box.

What am I thinking???
i'm thinking that you're thinking about making the sickest R50 ever.

Hey Alex, what is your opinion on the Terra Grapplers, the Kumho SAT (their new A/T) and the Wrangler Duratrac? I will be needing new tires for my X rims this summer and want to see if any of the new tires are any good...
I know you're asking the other alex, but I'll answer anyway.
my buddies all have terra grapplers on their pickup trucks and they're worthless off road. check out my youtube channel for a comparison of my pathy on highway-oriented ATs, against two trucks on new and new-ish Nitto terra grapplers.

You're welcome.

I don't get it?
you don't even know what you know. you swear against BFG ATs but then you support them by saying there's nothing wrong with old technology and that your dad put them on his F150. pick a story and stick to it. either you like them or you don't.
all we can deduce from your post is that the BFG AT is an old, antiquated tire best left for pavement pounding. when you really want to go off road, get an MT (even if you don't do mud).
-
the only way to replace that piece is to cut it off and weld in a new one. the other option would be to try and pull it out a bit, then fill it with bondo and/or fiberglass it. it shouldn't be $1800 but it's not going to be cheap. i say ignore it. you probably can't even tell it's damaged.
your other option would be to get some rock sliders. they'll hide any previous damage, and prevent future damage.
-
The BFG ATs suck up mud and don't clean very well.
Good for everything else, but not mud. There's so much rain around here I wouldn't consider putting those on my truck.
My next tire will be a MT, hopefully a KM2.
THERE IS NOTHING WRONG WITH OLD TECHNOLOGY. The performance and reliability that comes with it is much better than designing something new and having it be a total failure, and ruining the company's name.
They have no reason to do something about the design unless people suddenly quit buying them. Which I don't see happening any time soon. My dad just put a brand new pair on his F150.
thank you for proving my point.

you're right dean. i recently replaced my front rotors and reused my wheel bearings. i was thinking the wheel bearing is in the rotor (chevy style), but the rotor is bolted to the hub, which houses the bearing.
brakes are not as easy as other vehicles, but they're still not difficult. but if it were me, i wouldn't mess with the rear drums until they started getting noisy.
-
And? Was there some sort of point to that remark? So are Swampers...
for the money i'd get the BFG KM2s or SSwamper TSL Radials. at least they work in the (real) mud, unlike the BFG ATs.
-
if you're not going to mention what year pathy you're talking about, at least update your profile to show you have an 03 Pathy now.
you don't need any extra parts to do your front/rear brakes. you could reuse your front wheel bearings, but it wouldn't hurt to replace them.
the springs on the rear drums do not need to be replaced. the only other thing to watch for is front bearing preload and setting your rear parking brake.
-
the rear control arms should be replaced whenever Steeevo starts producing them.
-
the front wheel wells are larger than the rear, so tire-to-fender measurements don't accurately portray levelness.
-
it's not ATF so it won't be milky pink. it's gear oil so it will be like chocolate milk. if it looks bubbly and frothy, time to change the fluid. make sure you can get the top fill plug loose before you open the lower drain plug - for obvious reasons.
-
BFG AT is an old design
-
i hope you're planning on a lift if you're getting 275/75 tires
-
remove the fill plug, stick your finger in there and check the fluid. if it looks like chocolate milk, there's water.

mine aren't hidden lol

on my R50 i ran the wires for my four roof lights behind the weather stripping for the front driver's door. i just pulled back the seal, routed the wires behind it and replaced the seal. no drilling and no ugly wires.
my wires all go to the engine bay. power comes from the battery, but switched power is from the driving lights and the interior switch is wired through the firewall.
-
the front shafts can't bind/pop if the tcase is not sending power to the front axle.
