No, no problems. The wiring harness for the radio and climate controls are separate but run back to the same conglomerate I think. I had to wire my harness wire by wire, but bosch sends instructions for each individual wire's purpose. Make sure you got the right wires I guess. Hope this helps.

best bully dog setting for trail graps?

Hey yall, got a bully dog triple gt a while back and was wondering what some of yalls opinions were on which setting I should run for best power/mpg gain. I'm running a 2" lift and 285 trail graps (they're pretty heavy), so I was thinking of tuning it for power to balance out the mpg loss I suf...

Excellent info guys. I am expecting gains from $600 worth of mods, maybe not better than stock mpg's and power, but just a noticable difference. I think I'll go with the bully dog and an intake spacer, hold off on the K&N. The way I look at it now, my engine just has to compensate for added weig...

So what I'm actually looking for is the manifold spacer, not the small square shaped intake/throttle spacer? I figured a lot of K&N was just the cone shaped filter tho. Seems to just allow for more surface area to be used when taking in air. Could I just buy a filter and pvc pipe it to the intak...

The intake spacer increased my midrange power and mileage a bit. Truck downshifts a lot less often on the uphills. Several people here who've added heavy wheels and a lift are happy with the spacer. Ok, so I haven't looked to much into a spacer for the intake. Could you give me some info on those? ...

Balancing out power and mpg's after mods

So I recently upgraded to a Rancho Quicklift, rear spacer, and 33's and, over time, I've been able to tell a big difference in fuel mileage as well as power. I'm thinking of dropping in a bully dog tuner and a K&N filter in order to try and level it back out. Anyone with experience on this and a...

I really like the look you got there That's what I'm saying!! Haha I see trail grapplers everywhere, all of my friends have them and they're suppo...

Haha oh yeah, before I got 285's I used to brag on a pathfinders passing gear. I'd be going 60 and mash maybe a quarter of an inch more out of it and hit 80 by the time I pass the car in front of me! I bet the gears are a big aspect of it tho. I haven't looked at what ratio is stock but I know I use...

doesnt the v8 pathfinder have a little big bigger brakes? I'm not too sure, if so, I may look into getting a set of those from a scrap yard. Tons of those around here. I wish I had a V8 pathy tho. I wonder how much of a difference it really makes driving wise. The V6 does pretty good in my opinion,...

You're probably right haha well maybe sometime in the future I may get around to changing some of the braking components, but for now I'll just stick with that. Solid advice! :lol:

You mean the sway bar? Stock is very stout, so perhaps maybe an upgrade to the end links and stabilizer bushings might help. I got rid of my sway bar since this is not really an on road vehicle, and even with my lift and tires, it's not terribly bad on road. Ok, I was thinking the sway bar was the ...

rancho steering stabilizers?

Just wondering if anyone has changed out their steering stabilizers after lifting their pathy? I don't really have a problem with the stock stabilizers, but just handling wise I can tell it is a slight strain on them especially when taking bumps on a curve
