I notice a decently significant difference in fuel mpg and how long a tank lasts as far as miles go when I use higher octane fuel. I know this because my driving habit doesn't change and I do some pretty consistent driving to and from work @ about 80mph daily for 17 miles one way and about 40 mph fo...

Have any of the 2 inch lifts had any adverse affects on other suspension parts? Say excessive bushing wear? Links being worn or ball joints crapping out prematurely? I just installed the airlift 1000 & the more I read on the 2 inch the more I get the itch to pick one up for my self. I'm a believ...

It's not really a question so much of raising the rear as it is levelling it and reducing bottoming-out and general spring apathy. I don't have any lift at all on my '05, and I have the bags in the rear. If I pump them up to say 15psi or so, the rear comes up noticeably, but that just makes it leve...

Airlift in the rear, ?? For the front

I have noticed everyone going with the 2" all the way around but personally I'd like to keep it pretty stock. I have the airlift coming in the mail tomorrow and will put it in this Friday, my question is if the bags perk the rear end up and my front end has a little clunk to the strut after 60k...

Just ran 12 quarts of "Valvoline MaxLife Dex/Merc (Matic-s) approved", through my 2007 pathfinder @ 73500 miles. I just disconnected the hose from the drivers side of the radiator and into a 1 gallon milk jug. Start the car for approx 5-10 seconds which will drain 1-2 quarts out. Stop the...

Brake Dust...

I can't take it. I just rotated my tires today and the pads have plenty of life left on them. Front & rear. But in all honesty I absolutely CAN NOT STAND the brake dust being thrown from my front set. Rear not so much. But it's costing me more time, money, and aggravation in car washing, rags, a...
