Canadian Nissan Truck Club

My Bora wheel spacers have been shipped and on their way. I also took advantage of the sale and ordered a snorkel through Z1. I'll order the adapter later

Not the truck but bought a new hood for my golf, found one on marketplace the same colour, no rust and best of all, no hail dents.

I ordered my ASFIR aluminum skid plates. I know there's a new ASFIR Canada reseller, but it's almost $700 cheaper to order from ASFIR directly. We'll see about any brokerage fees when they arrive.

Note. I got a call, »They're coming from the USA and willbe pre-charging brokerage fees, at a wonderful $400ish. I also got a FedEx bill for my wheel spacers. They want $90 for that.

I wanted to get another set of Rugged Rocks battery blocks, but on top of the $70USD cost, they want $46USD to ship those little things. And I'm sure there will be more fees on top of that. Not feeling like spending $200 on those...

 

I ordered the SuperPro offset bushings for the rear suspension. Despite being *barely* outside of spec, I'm told I'm ok, but I still want to err on the side of caution, especially since I do tow a lot, which squishes the rear suspension further. I'm also wondering if the wheel spacers will exaggerate the issue. Considering the price of those damn tires, it wouldn't be a bad idea to minimize any excessive wear.

My ASFIR skid plates arrived, but I also got a warning to get my exhaust fixed.

My Flock gauges will be shipped soon to my friend in the USA, ahead of schedule and really excited to have them. I also ordered a set of Bilstein 4600`s for the rear. I don't like how bouncy it had become, thinking the Munroe shocks I installed to pass inspection are dead. I checked their price on RockAuto and were only $99 each, only $37 to ship both, and added the typical 5% discount code.

That's pretty good for bilsteins. Those monroe ones don't last for poop. I remember I warrantied like 3 sets on my old pathfinder.

Finally got a sway bar for the rear to run some tests to get the front to cycle more. Just need longer adjustable links. Trailer is also 85% done.

How do we donate for membership renewals? The old link is 404'd. Need to do this before renewing OF4WD!
 

I am not sure why it says it is not accepting donations. I don't have access to the paypal account. @Pezzy @Morpheus can you help?

As for the truck. In the past week I replaced both torsion bars and a cracked exhaust header on my stock SC 5 speed. Wow it's so quiet now.

Guess that's what you get for $150 ebay headers lol.

Must feel like a new truck!

Yeah, it feels pretty good! Just need to get an alignment now.

I really should get out on a trail this year...

Done! Just waiting on the OF4WD code and will be updated. 

We should hit up Minden before AW if you can swing it. I already plan on going to AW, booked my time off already. My son was born on August 22nd last year so was a non-starter.
 

[image][/image]My plan is for AW this year, but I need sliders before I do. I`m being picky about the style and they either don't ship to Canada or haven't gotten back to me.I'd do the Coastal ones, but I don't want the kick out.

My truck now has cats in the exhaust, and my Flock gauges are officially on their way to my friend in the USA.

Yeah that would be nice, I need to replace my fuel tank and motor mount. 2 injuries the truck had after the calabogie trip in 2023, I didn't drive it at all last summer

Man what trail did you do!? Although my diff blew up on that california road/powerline trail everyone does. It is a cake walk and yet that was the trail that did it in. Mind you the 11hr nightmare we went through the summer before with Drizit probably was the real culprit. I was driving a time bomb in 2wd  for a couple of months, and once in 4wd it went off. Took me out for the summer too.

Did a few, the gorge, lavant (my favourite), calabogie line, and the first day we did crag lake which I think is where I busted the engine mount. But Jim and I ratchet strapped it down and I wheeled the rest of the trip like that lmao.

The gas tank I just noticed it last time I filled it up, it was smelling like fuel and noticed the tank was wet on one side. Haven't really looked into it tbh.
