I put the AC compressor belt on today so I decided to test out my center console cooler.
Before.
This is after a 30 minute drive.
I also ordered a set of 315/75/16 cooper stt pros. I ran them on a few rigs and have liked them. The geolandars that are in the truck are 7 years old. Lots of tread but to old for my liking. They're also a s***ty looking at.
I took it up to the mountains today.
The 4wd works great. It needs a front locker, but that was on the list anyways.
The geolandars are awful. I have a set of Cooper stt pro's on the way.
My new calipers showed up. Still waiting on pads and rotors so I can rebuild the knuckles.
I've had issues with the drivers fog light blinking.
Realized the stock bulbs aren't there and someone has jumpers to a different bulb. After some research the OEM bulb is hard to get for the JDM rigs(h3c) so this is common especially amongst Nissans. I cleaned up the s***ty wiring job and I'll run this setup till a bulb fails. Then I'll order the correct ones online.
I received my flare trim kit from a vendor here and I also painted my new calipers. I'm still waiting on pads and rotors before I do the knuckle rebuild.
I swapped out shifters on my lc
I bought one off a newer 80 series so it had an od button and the shift pattern was wrong. Mine had a chrome handle and the new one was black. So I tore both apart and used parts from one and parts from another. The new handle isn't perfect but it's better. I might send the old one out to be recovered.
I also pulled all the washer lines under the hood and replaced them. I took bother washer nozzles and cleaned them and re-aimed them.
Tomorrow is a big day. We are rebuilding both knuckles and adding bigger brakes.
Got a knuckle rebuild kit from cruiser outfitters and decided today was the day.
The right hub looks like it's been wet inside. But nothing alarming. The left hub had a leaking inner seal.
I've rebuilt all manner of front ends. This was by far the most disgusting. And most frustrating. I was debating on a front locker. But I'm to lazy to do this again.
