Just wondering if the new U-joint fixed the problem? I've got 2 noises and I don't know if both can be blamed on a bad u-joint(s): 1. Vibration / noise at 80-100 km/h, similar to an unbalanced tire except noise seems to come and go when flicking between 2WD and AUTO 2. Clicking noise audible outside...
Some new rims, tires, tint and it passed the safety inspection! Found some chrome mirrors in the junkyard, a little bit of polish and they looked OK. http://photoshare.shaw.ca/image/7/3/a/165453/bodywork38-0.jpg http://photoshare.shaw.ca/image/7/3/a/165453/bodywork39-0.jpg http://photoshare.shaw.ca/...
Here's some pics of the roof light swap. Not sure what the originals were, but they did not stand up to the Canadian climate too well. Replaced them with Hella's. http://photoshare.shaw.ca/image/7/3/a/165453/rooflight1-0.jpg 55w Hellas are bright, but I found after the e-code swap, I really did not ...
Here's the first coat of paint. I used a single stage, 2 coat process. The second coat I added some extra reducer that made it go on shiny. I had to do a second coat because the metallic bits looked like tiger stripes on the hood. I got a few small runs, but overall pretty happy how it turned out. h...
Ready to prime! I decided to paint the inside of the door frames and tail gate. What a joy that was to mask. http://photoshare.shaw.ca/image/7/3/a/165453/bodywork13-0.jpg Primer On! Surgical masks do not work as paint masks. I probably gave myself cancer spraying this thing in my garage. http://phot...
...and most of the front end. WTF? I was just supposed to patch a fill a few rust holes? http://photoshare.shaw.ca/image/7/3/a/165453/bodywork07-0.jpg Stripped out the window tint and removed the factory light bar. Got the cream putty on. Sanded most of that off too. http://photoshare.shaw.ca/image/...
Here's my 92 2-door 5 spd. I bought it back in 1991 and kept it until 2006. For a few years it had a 4" trailmaster lift, but I took it off in 2001. A few years later, the rust was starting to eat through the bodywork, to the point where it could not pass the annual safety inspection we had in ...
Hey guys, just rejoined the Pathfinder family last year with an 06 SE. I had a 92 that I kept until 2006, what a great fun truck that was. I'll post some pics of it in a sec. Hope to get some of the wisdom here about the 06 Pathy. I think I'm already suffering from U joint wear and possibly CV too.
