    Just wondering if anyone has ran into this issue and solved it (Sending it to shops, DIY's etc) My 02 Xterra is in pretty good condition body wise for its age...… except the rocker panels.

    Hello all, I am in a pickle. Out in Joshua Tree California my Xterra overheated and coolant burst a radiator hose while driving (it was a perfect storm of uphill at 70mph, air-conditioning on low and a hot day). I've done little jobs before so I thought about trying to tow it to a parking...

    I'm rebuilding my transmission and would like some advice on my findings. The only symptom was that my 2004 SC 4x4 (RE4R01A) wouldn't move in reverse. The major problem is that the reverse clutch oil seal on the oil pump cover supply shaft was destroyed. Since pulling it apart, I can see why it...

    So my stock Nissan skid plate was literally being held up by two out of the six mounting bolts. The other 4 were totally stripped - I'm sure the tiny M6 bolts don't hold up well in the face of Jiffy Lube shop boys with impact drivers... Fix got a bit more interesting after I snapped an EZ-out...
