Not on the rug, I appreciate your comment. Sometimes getting people to comment in this forum is like pulling teeth. A lot of looking but no touching.... :D I have read good things about the TOYO's. However, I quickly deviated away from them as my local Discount Tire doesn't sell the toyo brand. (I n...

I am having a internal debate with myself, and could use some assistance. I have spent countless hours researching and looking at tire specs and reviews. I have a 2008 V8 4x4. I currently have stock sized BFG Rugged Terrains 30" (265/60/18 ) but plan to jump up a size to 32" (275/65/18 ). ...

I have a v8 model as well. I have always run premium. I discussed this with my friend (Nissan master tech) and as I understand it you can run 87 octane without any hiccups or knocking but you will notice a decrease in power. The ECU will adjust after a couple hundred miles and you will be all set. I...

I wanted to help in the DIY department. I didn't find very many DIY's on this forum. I hope this helps others save money and learn a little about their truck. Performed on a 2008 Pathfinder LE V8 4WD. Things to note before you start: -Estimated time to complete: 30-45min -Fluid Capacity 3.75 pints (...

I plan to change the Transmission and transfer case fluids soon in my PF. I am just trying to find out what fluid everyone is using in their transfer case and what postive or negative changes they have noticed with that fluid. Currently, I am using "Redline 75-90 GL-5+ gear oil" in the fro...
