pathybuilder Posted April 21, 2012 Share Posted April 21, 2012 Picked up my wheels/tires and coil spacers. Lined the coil spacers up in the coil buckets to see if they'll work. Looks like we've got a match more to do this weekend.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RF600 Posted April 22, 2012 Share Posted April 22, 2012 Finally got around to the timing belt. Not as bad as I thought. Fixed a couple other annoying rattles. Just can't find the rattle in the dash. Turn the music up louder and it goes away. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RF600 Posted April 22, 2012 Share Posted April 22, 2012 I built a speaker box today. I'm going to wire it tomorrow. Did you measure about how much space the box is? Just curious in case I want to go that way. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mr.510 Posted April 22, 2012 Share Posted April 22, 2012 I pulled my air cleaner off and adjusted the TPS on my VG34i. Now the funky little surge when coasting down a long hill is gone once again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nefarious Posted April 22, 2012 Share Posted April 22, 2012 (edited) Wow...lots done today... Started off by modifying and reinforcing the rear of my frame to move my steel bumper up 3" to match my body lift(finally) and made custom brackets to make it all work.... welded on 2 nuts on the passenger side of the frame to accept my steering damper pin for when i switch to the 2wd steering setup which mounts the damper to the opposite side of the truck.... bent out the pigtails on a pair of yellow tag ZJ grand cherokee v8 springs, they now sit at a cool 19" with the pigtail expanded.. then a buddy came over and we replaced the steering rack in his R50...along with the tie rods and aligned it. i can't believe how much got done in my front yard today! haha Edited April 22, 2012 by Nefarious Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tmoore4512 Posted April 22, 2012 Share Posted April 22, 2012 After 72 hours of work, I finally got a moment to touch my pathfinder... Started trying to mount the new front bumper, but ran out of steam. Maybe next week. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We need to try to link up one weekend......they are open every weekend...... I watched my buddy's video from over there. When a truck with tractor tires as tall as me gets stuck and someone pulls him out in three separate pieces I don't want anything to do with that mud hole. So I wouldn't even bring my pathy so I wouldn't get tempted after too much liquid courage! My weekends stay booked up lately that’s why I couldn't make it. Working 55 to 60 hours a week and sometimes saturday too doesn't leave time for much else especially when your old and need sleep. It was so much easier when I didn't need to sleep!

silverton Posted April 23, 2012 Share Posted April 23, 2012 (edited) Wasn't to my Pathy, but I feel like sharing anyway! Put an MSD 6A-L in my s12, got it with a 6000 rpm rev limiter, but Mr.510 had a 3000rpm limiter, so I plopped it in to mess around with it. Here's the resulting video Edited April 23, 2012 by silverton Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TugboatTony Posted April 24, 2012 Share Posted April 24, 2012 (edited) Kicked it..........f**kin' auto hub started grinding away doing 60 km/h after needing 4wd to pull my boat out up the ramp, tide was out and was below the seaweed belt. If it's not one thing its another with this money pit...........same story with my wife, BUT I still love both of 'em.

adamzan Posted April 24, 2012 Share Posted April 24, 2012 (edited) That means they are sticking, clean them and lube them with a bit of light grease and they should be fine. If the grease is too thick they will engage on their own in the cold months. Edited April 24, 2012 by adamzan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

E_ROCK Posted April 25, 2012 Share Posted April 25, 2012 Did a little spring cleaning in the garage over the weekend and found a pair of forgotten Rancho RS99116 shocks that came off my Jeep project. Took off the JKS bar pin eliminators and stud conversions and cleaned them up a bit. Checked dimensions and thinking about mounting them on the rear of my '99...maybe this weekend when I fiddle with my custom HDPE strut spacers.
