  1. Does anyone know how to change the Auto Trans shift points and make it shift harder? I've looked all over the web and found nothing about it.
  2. I found some at napa auto parts. If it is the part that I'm thinking about. Sway Bar Links?? At least that is what they are calling them at napa. (Sway Bar Link Kit)
  3. I bought my links from Napa auto parts. They refer to them as a sway bar link kit. It takes one "kit" for each side. They come with bolts, washers, and the link. Believe it or not, they were half the price of autozone. What kept your strut together? Luck?
  4. I think I may have it narrowed down to the struts. Does anyone else have any input. When I hit the slightest bump, I can hear and feel a little clattering underneath. I have looked high and low for anything loose, worn out, I even lifted the front off the ground with a forklift. I shook the tires to see if it might be wheel bearings loose or gone, checked the brake calipers for rattling(chevys are notorious for this). It is driving me nuts!!!! I found some Monroe struts on Ebay, I have never seen them mentioned here. Does anyone know if they are worth a damn? Someone help......I need Prozac!!
  5. This is a "flex pipe". It keeps things from cracking due to vibration and stress.
  6. does anyone have a good link for BP? I keep getting some BS site that has nothing to do with offroading. Maybe my inner dumba$$ is coming out.
  7. This is exactly why I prefer to work on my own stuff. The class you mention will save you a lot of time, cash, and headaches. By all means take it. Or you can learn from the talent on this site. i have learned a lot of shortcuts and tips here. On another note, even by removing the tie rods(as long as you do not adjust them) one can reinstall them without an alignment. They should fit back within a few thousandths of an inch.
  8. Most of what I've seen are home built. You may be able to get one of the bumper builder guru's to build you one. There is a lot of talent in this group.
  9. Reflective white sounds cool! I'd order that over plain white.
  10. I have mine dual in dual out. I had issues with a clogged exhaust. Since it ran poorly when I got it and dualed it out right away, I never noticed a loss in power. Sounds like I should go back to single due to torque loss. Never woulda thunk it.
  11. I was 15 and just got an old '76 International SWB truck. 392 V8, all wheel drive. Me and a buddy snuck it out and went to the river. At 2 AM, I'm calling my uncle. I bribed him with a case of beer to not tell my parents. By the time I was done with it, it was on 44's. That really messed up the capability. I was young and dumb. Live and learn. It did get the girls though! 6- 4x4's later I bought my first Nissan, no more domestic for me. No goin' anywhere gas hogs!
  12. Sweet ride, some people have all the luck when it comes to deals.
  13. everything seems top notch, I wonder if it is the rack? How would one check that out. it doesn't leak or make noise.
  14. Does anyone know where I might find a steering stabilizer for my 96 pathy? If I hit a pothole or bump at speed, the steering wheel shutters violently? I have cheched out the rack and pinion, struts, tie rods, bushings, etc. The dealer says it is a nissan flaw. Nothing can be done about it. I don't believe it. I'll build a subframe with 4 ling and new axles if that's what it takes...a stabilizer would be much simpler though.
  15. I will order a banner and decal on payday. Very nice!!
