TRUXterra Posted August 19, 2014 Report Share Posted August 19, 2014 I don't think that air flow is going to be an issue. The OEM intake is/was way more restrictive than a 2" diameter in sections (if it's similar to the intake on a Pathy with the same motor). Here's pics of the stock set-up on the Pathfinder. One section was only 1.5" in diamater! If you don;t like the Neon idea, maybe cover it in Union Jack stickers :p Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BlackPrintz Posted August 19, 2014 Report Share Posted August 19, 2014 I was thinking of it like an HVAC system, the diameter and the length of run have an impact on duct diameter for air flow. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Command Posted August 24, 2014 Report Share Posted August 24, 2014 Got around to bed lining some more things, rockers and doors done :) also did some on my hood to protect it from rocks and possibly hail......mostly rocks though haha Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
05TJ Posted August 24, 2014 Report Share Posted August 24, 2014 How do they ride? They ride really good, rims a little pushed out now so turning radius has changed a bit. What did you do with the spacers? I still have the spacers if your interested . I went through an ordeal with them my old steel rims with aluninum spacers in the middle, touching steel axles. I guess the aluminum was softening up cause the spacers to shift and then all of my lugs got warped/snapped off. And to top that the inside of my hubs were all bored out for the same thing. If you do want em I'll snap a few pics, only two of them have noticeable damage. Something you'd throw on temporarily but I'd never run them again. Ps, think there only 1/4 " Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ps, think there only 1/4 " No you should just toss those then... I need 1.25" spacers that actually bolt onto the hubs, and then the rim bolts to the spacer on the studs on the spacer...

autumnwalker Posted August 25, 2014 Author Report Share Posted August 25, 2014 A day late... but I started it for the first time in about four weeks (fired right up) and then I pretended it was a rally car. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
derekmac Posted August 29, 2014 Report Share Posted August 29, 2014 Yesterday I pulled the seats and carpet so I could fix two holes (which turned into 3), and check the rest of the floor out. The only place that was bad was right over the muffler. I fixed the holes up, cleaned the whole floor, and sprayed the entire thing with a good coat of LPS 3. I cleaned the mounting feet for the seats up too, painted them, and sprayed LPS 3 on them after I put the seats back in. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sar4x4 Posted August 29, 2014 Report Share Posted August 29, 2014 So yesterday my transmission linkage fell off at the transmission end. (Burb) Good job I was just putting it in reverse, sitting on level ground! The short story is I shut the engine off, chocked the wheels and crawled underneath and shifted into Drive, unchocked the wheels, started 'er up and drove home! Where I again parked her on level ground and put her back in Park. I wil re-attach it tonight. It felt weird driving knowing you can't go into reverse or park easily! And I could start it, because the 'Start only in Park or Neutral' lock-out is controlled at the column shift end. I just left it in 'Park' the whole time.

SQRLPWR Posted September 3, 2014 Report Share Posted September 3, 2014 I saw this on sale for $9.99 at crappy tire, and I like the inside/outside temperature gauges...and not having a clock in the X is also a real pain. The display is a bit in-the-kitchen-tastic....I might have to hack it ;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
