Just picked up a Pathfinder, and it needs a couple of things. Anyone have a friendly relationship with a Nissan dealer?

 

Try here, some OEM parts, not sure what you need, but it should help:

Rear lower control arms, truck has the beginnings of death wobble. Prices for the bushings aren't bad... I'll see if I can get some used arms cheap and drop them in as an assembly.

Oh man, the Pathfinder death wooble is the WORST! Fix it quick!

 

what year did you pick up ?

 

'98. 5-speed Chilkoot model (#305 according to the plaque). I decided I needed a vehicle that was designed AFTER the advent of the Super Nintendo.

I need to fix the death wobble, I want to find a swing-out spare tire carrier (for aesthetics), and maybe pickup the manual hubs, and other than that nothing. I'm old now, so I want quiet and comfortable.

 

nice , I had a '96 silver chilcoot for 3 years and really liked it . It was a llittle underpowered with the 3.0 liter auto though .

 

Coming out of my 82 horsepower (in 1984...) B2000, this thing has plenty of go.

 

The 5 speed will make a difference in the power department. That should be a decent vehicle, I've never seen too many problems with the Pathfinders.

 

Just an update on this, if anyone cares:

Did a lot of searching around, and price comparision, and I found these guys were a little cheaper, and still offered free delivery:

nice to know we have options in Canada now!

 

Been running on the check engine indicator for well above 2 years now because of a bad O2 sensor.
Even this web site wants 105$ for it. I'll admit it's the cheapest I've seen so far... but that's just too much.

 

$105 for an O2 sensor for an import is pretty good, especially if it's a modern 4 wire heated O2 sensor. I've replaced some in import cars at work that were $300 and up! Now that sucks.

 

I buy the 5 wire bosch for 20 bucks lol ...

On a more serious note ... I finally found camshaft seals for my 12a engine ... I thought I'd be leaking oil out of there for its whole life. Thanks god for them

 

I think it's a 3-wire. Also, there are 4 of them, so one defective one doesn't seem like it affect the gasoline mixture and it hasn't affected my gas comsuption.

The only downside is my check engine constantly on therefore I won't know if another "real" problem pops up.

 

One more update: ordered parts from Autopartsway.ca Friday night, and they were on my porch this afternoon. Quick-*** shipping for sure.
