Pathfinder Project : Roof Rack added. Phase 1

2008 Nissan Pathfinder- 11/15/2013
Trim: LE
Engine: 5.6L V8 engine
Drivetrain: 5 speed Auto, 4x4

Plan is to add/modify:

Tires - installed:(added set of BFGoodrich A/T 285/65/18 ) Tight fit with mild rubbing with tight turns. I would say these are the largest I would recommend on the stock 19" rims, if you do not want to remove mud flaps or modify from stock body trim.

Lift/Level - Installed with Issues: Rancho 2" Level kit, XL9000 shocks on rear, and a set of AirLift 1000s. -(Update: Major Rear wheel Alignment issue, See below)

BDGT - installed: Easy Breezy to install, now testing. (on 8/6/13: 17.8mpg over 121 miles @ 70mph on flat road with CC.)

CAI - Researching: Most likely go with a sub-$200 model/brand, as I don't think CAI justify prices higher than that. * After some reading and looking I see the 2008, V8 already has a cold air intake "like" configuration with intake through the fender skirt. For now I staying with K&N in stock box.

Exhaust - installed: Magnaflow muffler and removed the resonator , added tip. No noticeable at highway speed, but sounds nice in traffic. Not as deep as I wanted, but classy tone.

Other: Weathertech mats/deflectors,Reese ball-mount.

Here are a few shots. I'm going to keep a photo log of the project at: http://www.geneinman.com/project-pathfinder
