Re: Considering BFG T/A KO2 replacement

I had the US Spec Wildpeaks and they were TERRIBLE! They were completely worn down by 30k miles. My local tire shop upgraded me to the BFG KO2 for the difference in cost. Much Happier! https://scontent-lax3-1.xx.fbcdn.net/v/t39.30808-6/253841191_418474369782567_4657393840300218170_n.jpg?_nc_cat=110&...

Re: What does everyone tow?

My 2012 R51 and my 2020 Black Series Camper Patron. 4400LBS. The V6 is a mighty one, but the 3.13 ratios are killing me on long hill climbs. https://scontent-lax3-2.xx.fbcdn.net/v/t1.6435-9/201874098_329649041998434_5027473721107408099_n.jpg?_nc_cat=103&ccb=1-5&_nc_sid=8bfeb9&_nc_ohc=gh9...

Re: $500 3.69 Gear Upgrade

No the rear diff in an Xterra Pro-4x is not the C200K, Its the M226. Will not fit.

still going on about this as we are nearly ready to start purchasing items. Does anyone know a shop in So Cal that will do the work?

Re: 4x4 Pathfinder Locked and Loaded: Off-Road Tested -UPDATED!

I came late to the Pathfinder game and its proving harder and harder to modify as interest subsided. I just talked with Baja Racks and they have 0 interest in producing another rack like yours. I have the ARB Bumper, 4x4Parts Aluminum skids, Ironman 4x4 Snorkel and the lift but that's where I am nea...

Cannot shake the shake!

Folks Dying for help here!!! 2012 PF LE V6. I have the Ironman 4x4 Performance Lift, 265/70R18 Falkens, and the Caster/Camber bolt kit. Seems everything was done fine but I am getting a TON of feedback through the steering wheel. Sawing back and forth like its out of balance, especially over 70 MPH....

To Regear or Not to Regear... This is my question

Ladies and Gents I have paralysis by analysis! You see, I have a 12 Pathy with the stupid 3.13. DIdn't know that. In 2008 they changed the differential's final drive ratios from the 3.36. I have upgraded from the stock 30.5 tire to a 32.7 and now tow a Black Series Patron. Generally, it pulls fine b...

Re: $500 3.69 Gear Upgrade

Hey guys, I did a lift and 33" tire upgrade thinking that i'd be fine not regearing but my gas mileage is under 12MPG city and around 15-16HWY. The power is okay but long climbs leave me screaming in 3rd gear or 2nd. I am seriously thinking about this 3.69 upgrade as it wouldn't be crazy to do ...

Re: Ironman 4x4 1.5" Lift installed and Tested.

Hi everyone! I wanted to post an update. The shocks are doing well and taking a beating in stride although I do have some things to keep in mind. 1. I have a Tepui Ruggedized 1.9M mounted to the factory roof rack and it's been fine but the added 200lbs on the roof have had some effects on the head t...

Re: 350z / 370z Limited Slip Into the Pathfinder

Bringing up an old thread... DId anyone actually install the Quaife unit in the R200 yet? Looking for my V6 Pathy. I talked to Steve over at Rugged Rocks and it doesn't seem like the C200 unit is a viable option without some machining and I am not sure where to accomplish that at. Plus the cost for ...

Ironman is weirdly enough one of only two manufactures in AU that still makes their own stuff. Bilstein is made in Mexico unless you go for the custom stuff.

They are a twin-tube design which is a less expensive design.

For the price, no issues at all.

Hi so I am considering the Ironman 2 inch lift and wondering if that was the size you went with or the 1.5in lift? How level was the vehicle afterward IE front to back are both ends the same height or does one end up higher than the other? Thank You ~ Phil Phil, The Pathy sits mostly level with the...

*** UPDATE ***

Update - So I recognized that when in 4LO, and move the shifter to the manual mode, it shows 4th gear in the display on the dash. I cannot tell if its in 4th gear or if it's shifting below that? IF I leave it in the Drive mode, it feels as if the transmission is slipping or the torque converter is n...

bump steer?

Are you experiencing any bump steer? On certain types of bumps, I get the rear end stepping out with the Ironman setup.

Re: Looks good

Thanks for the review. We have a 2012 white "Silver Edition" 4x4 R51 with 56k that needs tires. We bought it in 2014 with 13k miles for $24k. Strongly considering ordering this upgrade... I'm thinking I will replace the 17" wheels with black rims, and replace front bumper with a blac...
