    Chevy pathfinder parts

    They are definitely shorter than blazer and suburban springs. Does reaching hold up? I have never had it done before. Sent from my E6782 using Tapatalk

    Chevy pathfinder parts

    Hi, I recently picked up a 1979 chevy g20 with a pathfinder 4x4 conversion. From searching on here I have found some good info but could use some more. Is there a list somewhere of what off the shelf stuff they used? I am currently looking into front leaf springs. They are bent the wrong way and...

    Popping in and out of 4HI, troubleshooting help please

    You can disconnect the linkage and manually put it in 4wd. It really sound like it's riding just on the edge of where it needs to be. Worst case you spent 15 min and I'm wrong best case you spent 15 min and solved a 7 year problem

    Popping in and out of 4HI, troubleshooting help please

The factory linkage is not so great in stock location move things around or have it get bent slightly and it will not work right. I gave up on constantly messing with linkage and...

    There are times I miss my 04 freedom wj. It was a damn comfortable vehicle. Very easy to sleep in the back. The iro skid is the best single mod you make to a wj. The 103" a tends to get high centered at least with the skid it's no big deal. Other than bumpers costing a mortgage payment or two...

    Currently I'm running h&r's springs. The claim 1.5" front and "1" rear. I ended up with less than 1" (after winch) front and 2.5" rear. I run 2" spacer up front. The rear does need another 1/2" just waiting till I rework the coil mounts and outboard the shocks. It has a ucf 2.5" belly up with a...

    Morris Mule Trailers

    I really like the versatility of this trailer. Seems simple and rugged enough without going overboard just for the wow factor.

    Who has fallen out of their rtt

    I have a friend who is on the smaller side. He uses a hammock. He has mastered bracing himself and flipping it over to drain. I swear one these days he will slip out of the hammock and into the puddle. So far he has been lucky

    I was supposed to be cleaning the garage yesterday. Found the cooktop from a parts coleman I have. And this idea came to me. The shelves I had for years. Lightweight and set up and take down easy. They also fit through the small door of my camper. I was a little Leary about plastic and heat...

    part apache part coleman part reading

    Took jscherbs idea and ran with it. Replaced the box that came on the camper with a hf atv rack. I got a buyer for the apache so those funds will go toward a narrower axel to bring the width from 89" down 69-70"
