  1. what B said ^ It even says in the owners manual not to drive barefoot. as the floor rusted out on both my D21 and pathy ive had a few problems. like the floor rusting away from the body mounts and causing the truck cab lean, having a golf ball sized hole rusted through my floor where the wiring harness for the ECU goes past the passenger's feet.. shorting out the wiring, killing the "finder of paths". Having the rear hatch "shocks" not hold the hatch up in the winter only and it falls and hits you while you're looking for something...
  2. i like the red lettering... but but they dont have the most aggressive tread..
  3. i just finished patching the floor and rocker panels in my D21 using the hood from my dead pathy. rivets to hold it together and then weld the seams
  4. and these... https://www.4x4parts.com/catalog/hardbody-fiberglass-front-fenders-p-646.html
  5. kinda like these?... http://www.kartek.com/Specials/FiberglassNissan.html 3" bulge.. pretty decent almost pre-runner style
  6. a watered down ammonia cleaner. get a windex bottle with like a 60/40 water to windex solution and a clean cloth, i know it is good for cleaning parts after sanding, before painting. its primer & paint safe. it removes the little particles and makes the paint job look nice. tack cloths work really good too! that starting fluid might react with bondo... im not sure tho. and i use varsol for bare metal only.
  7. http://ruggedrocksoffroad.com/nissan-hardbody-suspension-lifts-c-482_650.html bottom of page I forgot to mention they are listed under hardbody..
  8. You can buy superlift UCA`s from www.ruggedrocksoffroad.com i dont know if they come with bushings and hardware.. but thats probably where i will order mine from.
  9. thanks for the info thats false advertising! bullsh*t i say They hunt continues...
  10. https://www.4x4parts.com/catalog/hardbody-upper-control-arms-p-141.html i havent heard anything about these... is their something i dont know about these? 3" lift, proper ball joint angle, $200.00. can someone fill me in, before i order a pair?
  11. I found this company in Canada, http://www.otto-max.com/index.html they say they make coils and leaf springs. They say they Can make stuff for Nissan, custom, lifted, lowered, etc. even high articulation. Looks pretty cool, they welcome custom designs too! http://www.otto-max.com/index.html
  12. Hey Guys and Gals, i found a spring option from a company in Canada. They say on their site, they can do Coils, Leafs, Nissan,yes. custom, offroad, lift or lowering, "...including custom and high articulation applications. Custom applications and designs are welcome." http://www.otto-max.com/index.html It looks cool anyway, check it out.
  13. what about using the front diff drop bushings from RuggedRocksOffroad.com to help the CV angles??
  14. i think that a lot of city drivers are very bad drivers... when i lived in Ottawa i would have to do the 100m dash to cross the road. even at a crosswalk... drivers on their cell phones, going 20 over the limit, not paying attention , too worried about going to the Tim Horton's drive through... :coffee!:
  15. they said on the news, the Vietnam vet was the previous owner, the NYC cops found it....
  16. yeah we need a show about cars and not about the D-bags who drive them.
  17. You nailed it! I miss WRC and Isle of man TT... it is quite sad indeed. there is another racing channel, i seen it on youtube... i forget what its called. Anyway these days i watch stuff online. a couple i like: http://www.gtchannel.com/ and streetfire.net
  18. it doesnt say "where" in my '93 book... i found that if i drove with the gas door for the fuel filler open the light would come on... i cant remember at the moment... on the left side is my best guess
  19. They look real nice... PIAA is a great brand. How much would that model of light be if you ordered it at a local shop?
  20. that thing is sweet.. its a rock crawler by design... rockwells are good when you have 50"+ tires
  21. i wrote them an email and got bad news..... Yep - nothing available for 4WD - sorry! My guy thought you were inquiring about 2WD - duh? Sorry about that - and as far as we know, there really is nobody out there doing Hardbody 4x4 components. You might Cal Mini's @ (909) 622-1381. Thank you, KARTEK OFF-ROAD. 2 good 2 be true
  22. i believe so... beats buying sheet metal! just like the TV show says, Chop Cut, Rebuild. my truck is pure offroad so i dont care if it looks bad. as long as my feet dont get wet, or my ECU for that matter...
  23. heres a little pathy math: 3"+3"=33" 3" suspension lift & 3 inch body lift. allows for 33" tires...
  24. i recently found my mysterious gas smell, the evaporation line that goes back to the tank was rotted, and clogged, so it wasnt venting the fumes. i loosened my gas cap and a big rush of fumes escaped... it was broken in the passenger side front wheel well, i noticed it when i was putting on my rancho's.
