Ya I get it. Never ended up putting the skids on my wd21 but was just lucky I suppose!

Have you been working on your X? I don't think I'm going to make AW to be honest.     We are going but the X probably won't make it i haven't had the time to deal with it or deal with the logistics of getting it there.     I'm pretty upset about not going this year but I'll have get the shirts out ...

Rumours are all I ever heard. Nissan really missed the boat on that IMO. They could easily build one on the new Frontier platform and I'm sure it would sell well. But there's probably a lot of compliance crap they have to meet that would make it hard.   When I had to dump a ton of money into my car...

Ya everything new is huge $ Anyone heard anything on a new X coming out? or is it just rumour?   Rumours are all I ever heard. Nissan really missed the boat on that IMO.

Doing a tranny swap for me is too much work and beyond my skill set,I think it's time to upgrade and get something new? anyone need an 06? It's driveable but not reliable as is.   Yeah that's fair. What do you think you would replace it with? Those new frontiers look nice but too much $$$ for me ha...

Ya she be broken.Probably good for parts but most likely going to the scrap yard unless some one wants it?
 

 

Maybe you could pick up a good used transmission at the wreckers?
 

Finally got the front of the truck stripped down... There's a lot to do and many a spot weld to drill out. Going to make a separate thread about it.

Need to do sliders next.
 

  That happened to me too, what gives!? I thought the paint put on 15 years ago by the previous owner was good for life! 
 

No ambition to work on the X right now... So I freed up the sticking caliper on the Frontier.

Was at a Ford dealer tonight doing some network upgrades, these new pickups are too f-ing huge.  
 

Looking to finally replace the broken motor mount on the X... Anyone else done them on a first gen? They look like a tight spot to get to lol.   I know Adres has a couple times but i haven't my self.   I've swapped engines on these trucks but that only required taking the nut off that holds it to t...

Yeah exactly. In the last week I fixed a massive power steering leak on my brother's frontier, the hose barb that the resevoir line bolts to had developed a pin hole. Luckily there was a 2004 Xterra at the JY and it had the same piece. On the same rig I found a MINT leather steering wheel so grabbed...

Every single time I taken mine in for alignment they tell me it needs new uca/camber bolts. I've never replaced them... I feel like they see an older vehicle coming and they just tell you it needs them without even looking at it.

Bump, HBD. Hope you are well @Drizit

Seems to be the only vehicle where there is not one aftermarket company that makes one... Insane. Might just bite the bullet.

 

Got my money for the pathfinder. After it's fixed I'm going to start driving it more... I parked it to save it from the salt and wear, look what it got me. May as well enjoy it.   Congrats!!   I hope you fared well.   Well enough that I can fix it all and upgrade/repair a few other things that I ha...

Don't use it as a charger, only to maintain a charge. Been using many of them for years. So fa {knock on wood} they've been good. Had one fail, just stopped working, but was an older one LED style IIRC. I have one on my lawn tractor battery and one my emergency spare car battery 24/7, and use them ...

@Bow_Tied I picked one up, lets hope it doesn't burn the truck down for how cheap they are LOL

Sweet! Gonna stop by on my way home, it's right around the corner.
