New here, but not to Nissans
Hello fellow Nissan owners...my name is Adam and I live in Oregon.!
I know this is a Canadian based Nissan club but I thought I would still join
I found this site by searching the web and another member here also showed me this site.
I signed up so I can see more Nissan owners trucks and find answers to questions I may have also to look for more ideas for my truck.
I have had 3 pathfinders in the past and picked up my 4th August 2011...all WD21
Started out with a little garage paint job (OD Green and Black) then installed 3" SL and 33" boggers with a little trimming to make them fit. 180 amp Green machine alternator, Warn VR10K winch, KC daylighter lights, also built a front bumper.
I got high centered a few times and decided to figure out how to get bigger tires on so I could have more ground clearance...
So I started gathering parts to SAS my truck...I ended up buying a Bonney Motorsports SAS kit for the front, TG classic 5" for the rear, 14" travel Bilstein 5125 shocks on all 4 corners, 78 Ford Bronco HP Dana 44 with flat top knuckles and Chevy outers, 96 Rodeo Dana 44, Yukon 5.13 gears, Full Spool in the front, 38.5" Boggers, TG Rock sliders, 7/8 Heim DOM crossover steering, and Walker drive-lines front and rear with 1310 U joints all around...
And that about sums it up were I am at now with my build...
Anyways I look forward to checking out everyone's ride and if you don't mind I may steal some ideas from you.
