@@ronanrogers4127 it's been a while. Sold the bike a long time ago. From memory I kept the breather from the crank. I bought a small air filter to put on the hose. The airbox was blanked off to all crank/head breathers. What year is your 690. 08 and 09 were different to later years

@@sirjolly81thanks for the reply. Mine’s a 2011, last year of Gen 1. I just noticed in the video that the oil separator seems to still be there and there is at least one hose visible, so I wondered how it was plumbed.

no worries. I just did it again. Pretty easy job the 2nd time round :P Superpro rear bushes failed after 60k. Gone back to genuine rear and Nolathane on the front.

@@sirjolly81 yeah i just sent the superpro back and ordered genuine. not a job i want to conduct twice 😅

@@aaronlanghorn3334 sure did. Buut I had to get it shimmed to hold higher rail pressure. I've since had another tune done and the previous tune pressure was way to high. And very rich.

Its okay. I cant change it now mate. You get the idea and if you cant do it other videos show how to dissemble a strut. Its good to figure some things out yourself.

Sorry didn't realise I turned the comments off. I didn't replace them because I couldn't find a part number.

@@sirjolly81 I'm in the process of swapping the whiteline poly subframe bushings and I'm having that exact same problem. So far I've tracked down 2 different part numbers which are 55476-ar002 and nab-209. I believe the nab is the febest part number and the other is the official part number. Not 100% sure though since I haven't received mine yet and the dealership doesn't even have a part number for them.

Please explain? I corrected the pin in the wrong way. I've been driving on this lift for 70k and everything is fine. No uneven wear

@@sirjolly81 it looks that you mounted in such a way that the upper part of the whells are pushed even more outside of the car, so the wheels will not touch the ground at ~90°🤔

Who ever has the parts cheapest. Also I should add in the video superpro bushings are crap. Already split after 40k. I have some OEM to put back in soon.

​@@sirjolly81Are you going to put new bushings on the diff itself? I don't understand why everyone who is swapping the subframe bushings is avoiding replacing the ones on the diff.

6 speed manual.

No nothing wrong with mine. Is the brake dragging, bad bearings or a cv is bad.

Tried cheap eBay parts before. Not worth it.

Hi. Yes it half fixed my issue. I still had leaks but after the shop shimmed the valve to hold more rail pressure it's been fine. The fuel filter can also be a spot for air to get in.

So my bike is a 2010 with about 200hrs and 5500km. I dont use any oil and she runs great. Common issues are fuel pumps and cam chain tensioners, i replaced with kemso pump and new filter 3 years ago. Dirt tricks or a manual tensioner are great. I run fuel cleaner every other tank as well. as they are a ktm most parts are still available. These bikes are fantastic. good powwer, great ergos and ground clearance. only other issues are wear and tear items. clutch slave seals, counter sprocket seals etc. My mates 09 berg 450 with same kms and hours is also perfect. I do all the work on both. both had valves adjusted about 3 years ago and not moved since. Join a fb group and see how happy we all are. But some bikes will always have issues in any make or model.

for me in Australia any ktm/husky dealership. R&D in penrith were my go to. I no longer own the bike. I never had to order any important bits. wear parts are common with ktm.

I no longer have the bike. I would have it setup on the softer settings for bush riding. it was okay but still stiff compared to my other bikes. It certainly was fun on a track.

@@sirjolly81 shame lol

a 2" lift is the easiest. Depending on your location in the world you can do a body lift and much larger tyres 33 - 35". The R51 drive train is relatively strong. if you havent already get some decent bash guards. Especially for the sump. Saved me a few times.

@@sirjolly81 based in Zambia, where the Pathfinders are rare import from South Africa so spares have been a nightmare, had to ship Pedder's control arms for the rear all the way from Aus, only to see now that the diff isolator bushes are done too (also a great video by the way!). Have a new bash plate from sump all the way to the back of the transfer case, and this has helped a lot to get a feel when it starts tickling that there might be trouble from what we call a high 'middle man' of a bush track! Question about the bushes in the upper control arms that are off-centre: did I understand that these are specially designed like that to help extend the length of the arm somewhat, and the stock ones are symmetrical? Or did I miss something?

Great idea.

the chain is for a spare tyre, Tied up for the video. No safety glasses - The temp is 40°C and fog up instantly also it was clean enough not to be an issue.

I marked the middle, top and bottom of the stroke. Helps adjust it a bit quicker. we don't want the dampener to stop, impede steering angle and also let me see where my steering was in relation to the dampener.

Thanks heaps mate

The issue kept happening. The shop said I was correct with the valve. They removed it again and shimmed it to hold more pressure.

​@@sirjolly81 how to shimm to hold more presure?

Hi Is it possible to buy it online offshore and how much is it Please mention

​@@AlimonaAbbaseBay has them

Thank you for watching. Whatever works in the end to get it done.

Check superpro website. Pretty straight forward.

The bolts are rusted. Mine are the same last time I removed them. The bushings are a press fit. Hence why I got the correct tool to pull them into the frame. It was a tough job. Also I used a wire wheel to remove any surface corrosion. The bushings on mine stick out about 2mm further then stock.

@@sirjolly81 yes, it was a tough job yesterday. Mine is the same, it is about 2-3mm futher than the stock. I fitted it without removing the anti roll bar. I just unbolted it a bit to have more space for the diff to be lifted up. I scared that the thread of the bolts for the anti roll bar would be broken if i kept unbolted completely

I jacked up one wheel and turned it. Handbrake off and out of gear

@@sirjolly81 a guy said that he can replace the bushes without dropping the rear diff. I don't know how he did. th-cam.com/video/OMaDuEn2rmQ/w-d-xo.html

No vibrating in my car. You may need to check tyre balance, alignment, Worn out suspension bushings, engine mounts, transmission mount or bad wheel bearing. A lot of things to look at. All my diff bushings still had rubber so didn't cause knocking or vibrating. Metal on metal would be very noticeable. Also don't forget to check cvs for play.

Certainly underated vehicles. I would recommend only looking at 2010 to 2013.

@@sirjolly81 thank you for your reply! Is there any reason behind that?

@@franktherabbit422005 - 2012 is the R51, body on frame. Outstanding vehicle.

Nope sorry. 21mm, 18mm are common Nissan sizes.

good job. did you cut them out?

А какие ставил в итоге? Можешь дать номер? Сколько проехали, живые еще? Думаю может полиуретан поставить🤔

It is recommended to install front adjustable upper control arms and rear camber adjust uca bushes. But plenty of people don't but are adjusted to max after an alignment. Talk to the tyre shop and see how they go with settings.

Thank you

@@sirjolly81 replacing the UCA is recommended if you want your steering lighter. 2nd thing. If you fit bigger tyres like 32", 33". You need new front UCA and rear upper uca bushes for alignment. If you don't change bigger tyres, its still fine.

Im happy with the superpro control arm bushings. I did upper bushings and upper ball joints. Also the rear spring carrier bushing with superpro. I also wrapped the bushing sleeve in Teflon tape to help reduce squeaking as they get worn. Thanks for watching.

No idea. just do them up tight and use blue locktight. The transmission box bolts are the only ones you should be careful of, so no long breaker bars.

The power was good in the high rpm. The suspension is stiff and decent for motocross. To stiff for Enduro and throttle to snappy for tight trail. It's a bitch to start sometimes.

@@sirjolly81 ok thanks man its a sick looking bike

No knocking as it still had rubber. But you can feel the slack/movement when on, off throttle. It's not serious unless all the rubber is gone. Just have a good look. Also engine mounts are a common failure on Nissan r51 and d40. Just replaced mine aswell. Easy job.

@@sirjolly81 thank you. It looks like another thing on my list

just head to the website. Its easy to spot if you go to the park. All Mx tracks are next to each other and named. EG beginner, intermediate etc. You will easily spot this track when you go out there.

@@sirjolly81 ok thank you

First is the grass track second is thumper if I'm not mistaken
