Guest Silver98Pathfinder Posted August 15, 2005 Share Posted August 15, 2005 Hi guys, i'm Mike, I'm new here, live out here in Texas, Just bought a 98 pathfinder, unfortunatley its a 2wd. Any of you own a 2wd? I know it might seem like a stupid question since this is an off-roading association club or what not, but i was just curious. If any of you own one, can you give me some tips on how to modify it, and make it off -road accesible. Do i have to give it a lift? what kind of tires do you recommend? Or do i actually have to convert it to a 4wd, if thats even possible, if it is how's it done.. As you can tell i'm new here, and probably dont know much.. But i am learning alot reading the forums.. i will appreciate any advice.. thanks. and ohh yeah by the way awesome site!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RedPath88 Posted August 15, 2005 Share Posted August 15, 2005 Welcome Mike... this is a good place to get your questions answered. There are some people here with 2WD Pathy's and mods can be done to them. Since I am not up on what all can be done to that model Path, I’ll hand it off the those who do Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DJ Dank Posted August 15, 2005 Share Posted August 15, 2005 Hey welcome to the message board! There are people who drive 2wd's. You can still hit the trails up! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Trainman Posted August 15, 2005 Share Posted August 15, 2005 Welcome! 2wd? No problem! Lots of the info here will apply to you regardless of 2wd or 4wd. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pezzy Posted August 15, 2005 Share Posted August 15, 2005 Welcome to the board - this is a good place to learn about your truck... There are a couple current threads about converting 2wd to 4wd... have a quick look and you should find them... (although they are in reference to the older pathy - but I am sure a lot of general info applies - basicly - it's a lot of work, and if you REALLY wanted 4wd, you might be better just getting a 4wd) That said, there are a couple guys here who wheel with 2wd - mudfinder being one of them, he should be able to give you some info... Have a look in the section for your year pathy - there is plenty of threads about tire sizes & types, and info on lifts... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SC88Pathy Posted August 17, 2005 Share Posted August 17, 2005 Seems like converting a 98 to 4 wheel drive might be very difficult since it is unibody. Anyways welcome to the forums! Put some extremely aggresive tread tires on there (think Super Swampers or Swamper Boggers) and you should be able to hang out off road with us four wheelers!
