I'm betting it is for an oil pressure gauge... B
-
I got mine from Summit Racing, forget the name right now. Trans adapt?? They are all pretty much the same. Search using the advanced and put my name in, there is a thread about the only issue I have found. Oh, a crowsfoot wrench will probably make the install far easier... Way to come back Aaron... B
-
Exactly, and then try to get a foot on it. Most peoples legs and far stronger than their arms... B
-
I have used them and have one in my tool box. They have their uses, but are light duty only. Remember, you have to hold it to keep it from rotating; got really strong hands?? I use the 1/2" drive breaker bar, the electric impact gun and the pneumatic impact gun far more often. B
-
I don't believe you until I see pictures... B
-
Pictures, or it didn't happen... (exactly what I expected) Congrats!! B
-
Ditto the last 2 statements. I used a Sears multimeter to trouble shoot a clothes drier last year. I had used it for years before, but the old (crappy?) unit did not function well and caused me to waste a lot of time doing research on parts that tested true the second time and bad the third. Damn near threw it in the trash, but will keep it for voltage and such and buy a Fluke... B
-
I will if I can. Remember though, I'm a machinist, not a welder... *needs to change that* Only 2 years?? How rough were the trails? Do you have an idler arm brace? What were the symptom(s) that told you the modified CL was shot? How long was the warranty, the life time?? I'm just asking to fill in future blanks. B
-
Thanks, I missed a 1 and got them backwards... B
-
Try it and tell us... Yes, it should help, no, I don't think it will solve everything. Remember, the CL can still flex downward (to the rear) and rotate some even being bound against the stops. B
-
Holy Crap, I remembered something!!!! Oldsheimers hasn't gotten me yet... Thanks Simon, you saved me a search. B
-
LOL, I'd say you nailed it... Literally!!! There are a few threads about the new length/travel of shock to get. Lokk in the pinned garage section and/or use the search function. If you can't find it, let me know... The ride may be softer once the springs can extend all the way. I think the Rancho # is 912 for stock, 9116 for lifted?? Don't quote me on that.
-
Your manual will say ATF. I have ATF in mine, but then I have the automagic tranny. I think Simon was one of the people who ran gear oil in his transfer case on his old truck. Let me seeif I can find the thread... B
-
Maybe by then it was no longer a decent CL??? Maybe too much skinny pedal?? B
-
LOL but I agree. Yeah, go for it. You have a compressor, the time and aren't trying to make a show car. No harm in a little practice first though, just so you can experiment on some shapes for the camo. B
-
Damn, that looks good!!! QUIT GIVING ME MORE PROJECTS!!! B
-
Some issues with new installation of body lift + suspension
Precise1 replied to pathfinder93x's topic in General Forums
Looks good!! Champagne 4 doors FTW!!! I'm not following you with the e-brake problem. Are you out of adjustment? Cable stretch? Rear pads shot?? B -
Made by Far Reach International Inc. I'd do a search for reviews... B
-
Now that you mention it, I'm pretty sure that is what I wound up using also as it was all that I could find... A little stiff shifting in first and second when it was cold, but 5 minutes/1 mile and no issue. Yep. Everyone I talked to insisted that GL-5 was what I needed!! I finally asked one guy if that is what he ran in his pathfinder manual transmission. "I don't have a pathfinder" was the reply so I told him to quit wasting me time... LOL B
-
Good effort!! So you were in the east bay last weekend?? B
-
Good. I just did mine with all the exttras also. It took a while, but was able to do it all right the first time due to reading about all your issues. Thank you Doc... B
-
90-95 do. I think the earlier was gear oil, same as the tranny?? Many people run what is in their tranny so if ther is a leak, there is no cross contamination. I can not recall anyone having problems regardless. B
-
I prefer to stay inside of the recommended rim width. I had 31x10.5" on 6" rims and they wore a little odd but that was 1" of difference, not .5" Different manufacturers may state slightly different width recommendations. What you should do is look those tires up and know for certain first... B
-
Open centers?? Clarification for the elderly, please... I bought no centers so you can see the front hubs and rear drums. Is this what you mean or center caps that are open ended?? If that is the case, you would need the front open if you have manual hubs but could use closed center caps if you have the autolocking hubs (and fit over them, probably)... I prefer the center capless look on trucks with dirt tires. Does thatr answer a question I don't really understand?? B
-
Odds are that the drums are worn (not flat any more) and you have to back off the pad adjustemt like Adam said to remove them. Yes, the bolt holes (m6 I believe) are for removing the drum, but no puller is needed... You can try ringing the drum (striking with a metalic object/hammer) also, but this is usually for vehicles that have sat for a long time with the brake on. B
