frontier about to hit 240,000km still going strong

I'm over 240k and no worries nor smokes! And I have seen sum chimneys on d road. I chose to tune up my van every 5-7k but more at 5k jus to save d life of engine and $$$ in my pocket.

[sliderz1]

205k is still real service, We had cd20's that didnt last over 150K.

yea she's a short run and traffic beater. its less than 1/2 quart of 15w40 being burnt. not really bad

I'm 270k no smoke nothing looking to sell soon when the 2015 navara comes out, I'm not going to do the intercooler setup again

I had this exact problem some years ago
The only solution I found was to switch out the gear box and rebuild a centre console with proper insulation
U can get make a really good looking console out of MBF fiber glass etc and have it powder coated or leather wrapped either way it's inexpensive
Worked awesome never had any problems for 200k kms

Serious how long ago was that ? That bumper was made out of gold ? Tbh I find massy pricing on parts for these frontiers ridiculous. .. I changed the head for my vehicle about 6 yrs ago and that cost 5000 recently I asked what was the price out of curiosity they told me 8500+... I'm like wtf

Anyone knows where I can get the steering stopper bushing?

Does this by chance fix the grating sound made when fully locked over going over a hump for example? If so I need to change mine as well.

i used an old AC compressor rubber. DIY it

[nervewrecker]

Yup grating noise when going over humps and through rough roads. Steering dont necessarily need to be locked all but I get it when steering locked too.
Not sure what it looks like or how to DIY because under there really really really dirty and a good underwash seems to be harder to find that gold. I does have to pass through some craters regular with drain water and septic overflow so I need the underwash for a proper check up. (Nobody wants to go under there and touch mud from people cesspit).

Nowhere sells it self?

thx tr1ad.... i 4got dis tread! I created dat FRONTIER CLUB, so dat we dont jus give advice but also to move as a body time and time again.
Eg:- I went maracas the other day and saw 10-12 Navara Van line up as a group....and you doz see it in various oda vehicles especially Bikes.
I never witness dat with Frontiers, if dis TREAD willing to do dat; GREAT!!! I will take off mines

We do a membership thing....WAT U ALL THINK?

[Captain Awesome]

I love the club thread idea. Do u have a link to the existing one? If there is one already why create another?

Great.... and like I mentioned, I 4got about dis thread. My idea don't hav to be mines, it can be EVERYBODY one!
Plus seein dis thread existing a wile now, I'm I the only Frontier dat had dis idea?
So 4getin bout d thread I created, seein dat dis 1 here... I'm suggesting dat we Form a FRONTIER CLUB where membership is applicable and we link up time and time again! Reason doin a membership, is to have CARDS in-hand so dat wen we see anoda Frontier on d rd, we can introduce dem to d Club; cuz not all Frontiers are on Tuner nor online!

[sliderz1]

i must say you're rather enthusiatic. hope you pull it off man

Thx Sliderz1.... I jus like to see Unity in anything! Plus dere's a lot of negative vibes dat pollutes us everyday, dis cud/mite be a nice way to meet new ppl. Cuz it's not jus for men alone but d entire family!
I just trust/hope dat Frontier drivers/owners wud keep an open mind towards dis venture

That's what I had in mind.

Anyhew, someone sent me a pm some time back about getting a frontier (wanted one). Cant remember who it was, if you reading this can you kindly shoot me a pm.
Friend of mine decided to sell his, very good condition.

Hey guys would like to know what's the recommended brand of gas and oil shocks for 4x4 frontier ... would like to change my gas shocks tomorrow plz god

KYB gas-a-just (grey cartridge) shocks work great for the d22 4x4....i've tried the tokico an KYB oil shocks and they don't ride as good!

I went with kyb oil and gas it's decent so far

do you have the part # for the kyb shocks you used?

unfortunately i cant find the bill and i dont know the number off hand sorry bro

I still have the bill for mine and still have mines sitting in the living room.

Bill and box has 443238 for front oil and 443226 for rear oil.
