Sounds like a seized caliper. Since the VDC uses the braking system, it makes sense to me.

Had truck and utility trailer loaded up with shingles last night. All I can say is thank god for the air lift. i would have been totally bottomed out if it wasn't for this... 14 x 75lbs bundles of shingles in the back 2 rolls of 50lb tar paper Plus I had my utility trailer hooked up with about the ...

Got the Nuts/bolts today and installed it. Did a drive around base with 4wd engaged and all test SAT. Next is highway, didnt want to do that since it was rush hour getting off base. Hopefully I should be good on this for awhile. Next is the rear joints and new rotors/pads (when I can afford them).

I'm stationed on a navy base in Maine, I used the auto shop on base since I don't have tools/space. It's about 6/hr. I may just do it myself, I am just a bit frustrated with it right now. Coming from florida, I haven't realized the full effects of salt on a drive train lol. Plus FedEx lost the packa...

I talked to the mechanics in the base auto hobby shop about doing the rear shaft and they quoted it to be a 2 hour job...for 50 bucks an hour, I may have to swing that route since I already have the parts.

So I got up the balls to attempt to change out the u joints on the forward shaft of the pathy and what I nightmare!! Me and a buddy ended up chewing up most of the bolts just trying to get them off, they were rusted that bad. We had a bunch of pb blaster and a propane torch but it took a wee bit mor...

As far as durability it seems like it will hold up. I havent given it a good wash yet as it was raining before I left and I am deployed for a little bit. I am not too worried about touching up the wheels either as a can of paint costs 8 bucks instead of worrying about ruining a $800 set. I don't thi...

If you do look at used 4x4 from other states that are "snow" states, you gotta watch out for body rust. I bought mine in South Florida since I was moving to Maine and I wanted the 4x4 and there were only TWO (02) that were 4x4. Used of course. They were off lease and bought from dealers in...

battery? my pathy was doing that before the battery died and also when I had a loose neg term.

once the wheels are out, you pop out the center cap. THere are clips to remove the emblems, just be careful and gently apply pressure. Prep the same way. I wrapped a piece of tape around the "clip" portion to prevent issues with reinserting.

rustoleum bed liner spray. I used about half a can per wheel.

I believe there was a recall for the "Salt Belt" nissans for the Satellite air bag sensors possibly going bad due to corrosion.

So I decided to give my wheels a revamped since they were getting a little dicey. I pretty much used all the write ups I could. I cleaned the wheels with acetone and sanded down and roughed up the wheel surface. I used index cards that I had to "mask", they were a bit of a pain since I had...
