Fun drive up near Idaho Springs this past weekend, video coming soon. For reference the rear tire is about 18" off the ground. Really put the Pathy through it's paces but it performed exceptionally. Saw some jeeps with way bigger tires/lift/etc on the trail too.

Radflo 2.5 extended coilovers and SPC UCA's up front, Radflo 2.0 extended remote res. shocks with 4x4parts HD springs and Airlift 1000's in the back. That's the only major work so far, the rest is either electronic or cosmetic, including:

Center console CB with Firestik II and PA
ARB CKMA12 compressor with OEM style dash switches
Weathertech mats
Rear interior liftgate mod (as per https://goo.gl/i1v5ht)
Upper glovebox LED lights
LED dome lights
Mudguard/air dam removal
Disconnected rear swaybar
Remote start kit
Front/rear dash cam wired to ignition

Here's the dashcam video from the day: https://youtu.be/Xjvd5Ct_w6Y

I'll probably start a different thread soon to document my progress and keep other threads free of clutter

As I drove out onto this 110 year old platform, unable to see anything but the valley below, I realized, "I really don't have any common sense."

110 years ago they built things to last! That platform looks fine for a 120,000 lb M1 tank!

Hi guys,

I'm not new to Nissans but I am to Pathy's and the forum. I got rid of my 08 Range Rover Sport SC and decided to "upgrade" to something not quite as finicky. After searching for about six weeks I found my new girl. I call her Blubelle. She's got a lot of miles on her (252k KMS) but she runs great and from the pre-sale inspection there are only minor cosmetic issues to deal with. I flew from Vancouver to Calgary to pick her up and drove back on the same day (12 hour drive) and I like her more than I realized I would.

Recently had my R51 fixed up. Had pretty rusty rear wheel wells and the liftgate was pretty bad too. Don't really have any good before pics, but we all know what rust looks like. Here is the finished product:

MINNESOTA PATHFINDER UPDATE

Postby Code Pathfinder » Fri Dec 01, 2017 9:20 pm

I apologize for not posting in a while, I've been busy wrapping up my first trimester of Senior Year of High School.

Any who I've done some work to my Pathy since i last posted. I plan on doing more as i save up some money.

Here is what I've done since July 2017 (all photos shot in garage).

1) i updated my led rocker switches inside the vehicle. I replaced the switches that had painted letters to switches with laser etched letters. that way the lettering would light up and it looks better at night. (The usb charger has been installed for quite some time however)

Image

Image


2) i installed new badges on the front grille. my Nismo badge i had previously on the grille had rusted from the weather so i got a new one. i also got a nissan badge that lights up when the headlights are turned on.

Image

Image

3). i replaced the led fog and spot light pods on the top of my bullbar with a 20 inch light bar. the pods got damaged when i went off roading in august :(

Image

4). New CAI from NISMO Installed 2 weeks ago. Got it on amazon from a NISMO Parts seller. This CAI will fit any Frontier,Pathfinder, Or Xterra with a V6 4.0L Engine. I also installed a new Nissan emblem.

Image

Image

5). I Installed Led Rock Lights under the Hood, Grille, Front Bumper, and Side Mud guards. (Installing them under the hood helps me when I'm working on my Pathfinder outside at night) :) I have a Master Control switch inside the vehicle that turns them on and off (Shown in Picture 1). I can change the colors using an app on my iPhone. The Nissan emblem that i purchased also turns Red when i turn on the Led rock Lights from inside the vehicle.

(Color is White this time)

6) Installed HID 6000K bulbs from Kensun. The Ballasts where mounted using self tapping sheet metal screws. (the ballasts can be seen in some pictures look for the small silver box)

And Thats what I've done so far this fall. In the spring of 2018 i plan on installing Rancho Quick lift front shocks, rancho RS9000XL rear shocks, and PRG products 2.0 inch rear coil spring spacers to lift my Pathy a little. i will post images once that project is complete.
