Guess I can't go, I have a pretty bad coolant leak coming from the back of the block running down the trans. Looks like I'll be trying to trace this down

 

[drbandkgb]

Great place to do that... We will have a few here that know whats up

 

[BlOwNXT]

If its ok my brother in law may tag along. He's wanting a jeep and I have been trying to convert him, and he is about there. I think if he sees a few X's he may get one

[Macland]

Man that looks like it was fun. Too bad ya'll couldn't have had your mod day here. 85 degrees or so with just the slightest hint of a breeze. Very abnormal weather, but perfect for working. Glad ya'll had fun.

 

[NMTerras]

Perfect for working and neck fryin!

hey guys thanks for all of your help yesterday my body lift turned out great. Make a mental note to check the top coolant hose on eveyone that did a body lift. Mine broke the top of the radiator right where the hose connects and installing a new radiator on the side of the interstate sucks. thank gobble for plastic radiators huh???

 

[MechPatt587]

Well I didn't take a lot of pictures, but here are the ones I did take.

 

[BlOwNXT]

^^ Hate to hear that man. Il go check mine in a few minutes. Glad you got it fixed and back on the road. Also, thanks for your assistance with mine as well.

I know exactly what you are talking about... Mine broke off when I was off road about 3 years ago... The funny thing is that mine doesn't even have a body lift on it... I had a buddy of mine make me an aluminum sleeve that fit in the hole perfectly and epoxied it in and ran it like that for about 8 months before it broke off again. Then my wife (my girlfriend at the time) paid to have the top tank replaced on it for my birthday
Then I really messed up when I replaced my harmonic balancer and ran the puller through the radiator because I tried to avoid taking it out... I went back tot he same radiator shop and they happened to have a expanded capacity radiator for a frontier that was special ordered and damaged in shipping... (one of the plastic nipples that the holders go on had been broken off and it leaked from there some) He said he would sell it to me for $180 and replace the top tank with the one off my old radiator since they were a perfect match.

 

[NismoFire]

Patt, why didn't your truck start yesterday?

 

[MechPatt587]

Well you know how Nissan thought they had this great idea with their electrical connectors where you push a tab in and it springs apart? Well, the tab on the connector for the distributor will not pop back out for some reason so its constantly being pushed apart by the spring in the connector... I just got a zip tie from Dave and zipped the connector together, now hopefully no more issues...

 

[NismoFire]

That's what I thought. It looked like that retainer tab broke. I felt bad leaving after we moved your truck..can't leave a man down!

 

[MechPatt587]

Eh it wasn't anything major and I was absolutely not worried about it...

 

[RATTFINK]

Looks good folks!

To the newly lifted folks,
How does it feel now that your truck was lifted?

It's like an entire different truck. I use to go around people, now I drive over them, and when I get my RLC I will go through them
