  1. positive. i should know, i got ALL excited when i saw superwinch hubs for my 92 pathy.. only to find they were 31 spline, NOT 28... learned my lesson. SW don't even MAKE a 28 spline hub for pathy's don't know a P/N off hand, i have mile marker hubs...... use the the P/N is posted all over the garage and here. try the garage/how to's section 87-89 is 27 spline 90-95 is 28 spline 96+ is 31 spline. ~> http://npora.ipbhost.com//index.php?showto...;hl=manual+hubs
  2. just an FYI. your hubs are 28 spline r-50's are 31 spline. 87-89's are 27 spline....
  3. that's an old crime here....... been doin that for a few yrs now, especially now the tundras have titanium in their cats..... been goin missing on a daily basis couple local shops got busted for buying (illegal here in ca) used cats (knowing them to be stolen "to order") and installing them on peoples cars

    if you have the $$ (about $2k) why not go with the new 3 link set up steeveO has? very SCHWEEEEEEEEET, VERY little fab work, almost a direct bolt on, and if oyu go on his rugged rocks off road site...... you'll see it in action
  6. i check my tires hot, as that is the temp i will be driving at (after about 5 mins from a cold start)..... you don't want to air your tires up cold to the maximum (or even close to max) then they get hot and you are over inflated....... the pressure can change from cold to hot up to 5lbs...... i never run max pressures.. usually 3-5 under. if you are constantly driving on snow and want grip. say 10 under. obviously, the more inflated your tires, better the gas mileage. but don't over do it. and everything trail chaser said too!
  7. the only other person i know of who has broken those mounts is Dennis, otherwise known as terrano. from russia (now in canada). but i am not suprised seeing the roads he drove on daily........... definitely NOT a common problem on WD's
  8. and, the winner of the "idiot of the year award gos to".......... FORD. yay. you win.
  9. i agree with aaron (88) ^^^^ 33x13.5 is a WIDE ass tire. i should know, i run 33x12.5x15 on 15x10 rims....... i have a 4" SL & 3" BL and lemme tell yah. my meats RUB THE SNOT out of the front fender (the rear part) when i go wheelin or bounce up a driveway.... my fender flares cover the damage to the actual fender..... but it's annoying and not good for my tires. i have 4" BS on the rims.

  11. holy crap! that's one lucky man
  12. how are your shocks? t-bar levels? pull the wheel off and have a look around once you've done that, you'll prolly find the issue.
  13. have you checked to SEE if it's in 4wd??? gone through the ritual of putting it in 2H and backing up 5 feet? could be stuck in 4wd... bad habit on factory hubs

    Flexing

    7" of total lift on 33's. and he lookie lika dis........ and that's just after i BROKE one side of the sway bar. so it hadn't been completely removed yet. it is gone now body roll, obviously more, but not bad at all. quite tolerable indeed. just no sudden actions at speed...... just as a comparison, i threw a pic of mini (jgc coils and 31's, no BL) to compare to for flex.... not nearly as good.....
  15. my new year got off to a very good start happy new year y'all!!!!!!!
  16. i agree with aaron, king has 4"SL & 3" BL on 33's, for a collective total of 7" of lift............ that thing is no higher than King.... KING
  17. oooooooh! me likey that grille!!!!!!! looks awesome! sorry to hear about the damage to your other vehicles. as GG said, those shelters are mainly for shade in summer....
  18. brush guards are pretty much a waste of time.... in a front end "whoopsie", they usually cause more damage than they save your truck from. the stock bumper mounts are very weak and fold easily in an accident. brush guards that mount over the stock bumper only mount with 2 bolts, so they have a tendency to fold backwards into the hood in an accident. if you don't have plans to mount a winch at any time, then a smittybuilt bumper like the one i have on mini me is great... i modified it a "tad" (hehehe) and i push trucks and other stuff around with it all the time... it's very light so doesn't cause my truck any front end sag, but it's tough. i believe mine is actually for a mid 80's yota. i paid $100 for mine from another NPORA member. check craigs list and ebay for deals and also the classifieds section here in npora.
  19. i drive my pathy 50 miles (min) a day for work, longest road trip was about 130 miles each way through the mountains.... and that is with the head gasket already going.... and had no problems except overheating going over the mountain (gee, there's a suprise!) when i go wheelin "local" i drive 30 miles, plus usually about 10 miles on trail and then home again. they've always got me home. I haven't taken king any further than to work n back and wheelin n back (max of 80 miles)... so we'll see. yeah, 16 hours is a long drive if yer not used to long haul driving (i used to drive semi's to KY from CA), so you will either need a co driver or a rest for sleep on the way **lmfao JJ @ "...without taking meth"
  20. i'm with B. you can also take your battery to be tested at any local parts store just to be sure.
  21. this has definitely been covered a hundred times... here's some links.... http://www.nissanpathfinders.net/forum/index.php?showtopic=16262 Slick's exhaust
  22. did you (or the garage) mess with your timing at all? or accidentally turn the dist?
