Not personally. Check Ratsun.net if you haven't already.

It could be. Although one thing to try is pinch off that brake hose while the wheel is free and apply the brakes, see what it does. If it still locks up its not a brake issue. Brake hoses can collapse and not allow the caliper to release.

Lol that's hilarious

GM hydro boost sucks... that's all I have for input.

No I just snipped the end and put a ring terminal on it.

I had the same issue, it was a fusible link connection at the battery.

Sounds like a CHTS issue... temp sensor for the ECU so it can adjust fuel and timing trims.

I'm a big fan of Ultra Gray.

No, they came with a KA24 as well.

They are. Just cut them down to fit.

Took a cut off wheel and die grinder to the factory bose speaker baskets. Had to make room for the Audisons. Took as much material as I could get away with and they just barely fit.

Changed the oil the filled up the '88. Then parked it in the garage. Ready for the next time I have the urge to drive it.

Nice

Took it to the beach yesterday. Nice trip, weather held up pretty well. I saw an XJ that was stuck up in the soft stuff so I gave him a pull. He lost his 4wd due to an air leak. He stuck his head out the window and got sprayed with my roost, it was pretty funny lol.

Looks good!

Yessir.

Plenty of info. It'll swap right in.

Pulled the plenum off and fixed the fuel leak on my '88. Also fixed the floppy door panel with a couple of black screws... Going to take it camping tomorrow and toutle around.

Ackerman is the caster angle of alignment. It's how far forward or back the wheel is on its axis. If the caster is suddenly off its because of an impact that pushed the tire(s) back a little.

A bad enough valve cover gasket leak can actually cause unmetered air to be sucked in through the PCV system causing the O2 sensors to read lean therefore causing the engine to run rich... as in poorer fuel economy. Horrible mileage? No. Maybe an MPG.

The water pump is a little guy. Cheap too. Honestly, depending on mileage, throwing a new chain and guides at it would be a good idea. Guides and tensioners do wear out as they're plastic or nylon. Usually accompanied by a rattle on start up. The Z24 was Nissan's emissions motor. Not much power is to be expected. The head is restrictive and open chamber. You may have noticed the 8 spark plugs... for optimal power and economy they all need to be firing. They're long lasting little turds though so long as one doesn't let a typical blown head gasket take out the bottom end.

'04 4wd auto transfer case. Comes up as RL4.

Camo!

Did a transmission service on it yesterday. Fluid was basically black. I used Castrol Transmax Import ATF, it does feel a lot better and it's helped the hard shift out of first on light throttle quite a bit. When it's fully hot it's really smooth. Was glad to see no metal particles in the pan... kind of alarming that an '04 with an RL4 has the same weird characteristics as the RE4s.

The reason is there is an o-ring inside the torque converter that is very easily damaged and when you do, you basically need to buy a rebuild kit just to replace it. It's also insanely more difficult to mate anyhow. You'll get it in there. Many times I've gotten fed up with it and came back the next morning and it pops right in. When you get mad you fight not only the truck but yourself too.
