Guest evylgrynn Posted February 21, 2004 Share Posted February 21, 2004 Hey all, I own a 1989 Pathfinder SE, and I have the opportunity to buy a 1987 Pathfinder for a parts vehicle. The body looks to be in good shape, but the engine is completely blown. I may be able to get some parts off of it, such as the starter, alternator, etc. I was wondering if the parts are all completely interchangeable, such as the brakes, transfer case, some body panels, maybe one door (my driver door has pretty bad rust) and if it is worth it to buy. Thanks for the help Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
88pathoffroad Posted February 21, 2004 Share Posted February 21, 2004 Since they didn't change body styling or engine/drivetrain features until the 1990 4-door models, you should be just fine using an '87 for parts on your '89. Everything will interchange as far as I know, and I've been junkyard parts-sourcing for quite a while. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest januk1 Posted March 12, 2004 Share Posted March 12, 2004 darn, I'm posting this everywhere! I have a fully functional 1989 SE-V6 which I am selling really cheap. The reason being, the transmission is in the trunk. I'm a student, can't afford to replace it but refuse to scrap the car (love it too much). I have a post in the sale section and my avatar is also a pic of the car. Check it out!!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MatterHorn Posted March 13, 2004 Share Posted March 13, 2004 everything on those two models will be the same ... the only variance may be in the actual trim package, I.E. - the interior ... but things like door panels can be interchanged between each other, just make sure if you decide to replace your door(s) that you get yourself a interior panel removal tool ... they are pretty cheep and look pretty much like a ball joint seperator ... if you do it any other way, the snap pins will break or you will tear them straight through the panel ... espescially so with our older model pathfinders ...
