Nissan Pathfinder / Hardbody Headers by Doug Thorley

The Nissan Pathfinder / Hardbody Headers by Doug Thorley for the 3.0L V6 (1990-  1997) have been out of production since 2006 However, we’re finally bringing them back.  Seriously.

Doug Thorley has just requoted the headers to update the pricing with current times. The new price is 558.95 However to help kick start the first batch I’m taking $30 off to essentially cover the cost of shipping for my pre ordering customers.  The Special Price of $528.95 is currently listed on the Rugged Rocks website. The special price will be effective through July 13th. Over the last few months I have gotten a decent amount of feedback from a handful of people interested in these headers. Provided these people or even more are on board for getting these headers back into production, I should Officially be placing the order for the 3.0L v6 Nissan Pathfinder / Hardbody Headers with Doug Thorley by Monday July 16th which puts our shipping date of the headers about 8 weeks out from there being about September 10th.

Feel free to pre order your headers now, visit: http://ruggedrocksoffroad.com/advanced_search_result.php?search_in_description=1&keywords=464-2

or send an e-mail to steven@ruggedrocks.com with “VG30E Headers” as the subject along with your contact info to be contacted on July 13th for payment on your order. and as always you can call in your order at 909-547-4651.

If you have any questions about these headers, feel free to Contact Us or call 909-547-4651

Thank you,

Whats Next? Rugged Rocks Needs Your Input!

About a year ago Rugged Rocks was neck deep in all kinds of new product projects, and over the last year, one by one, new products were released and the list of open projects grew shorter and shorter. Progress!! Below is an updated list of products that were either new last year or were in progress. As you can see the number of open products has shrunk to just a few. Rugged Rocks has always been enthusiast driven and once again needs your input push the Nissan 4×4 aftermarket forward even further. What do you guys need for your trucks? Lets talk about it on the message board and get the ball rolling on some new products.

I really appreciate everyone’s input and everyone’s business.

Lets keep it going.

pre-’05 Xterra / Frontier / Pathfinder – H233B 33-Spl Lockright Locker Powertrax (maker of lock right lockers) was sold off by Richmond Gear (Previous owner of Powertrax) to Midwest Truck and auto Parts Who has no idea what happened to this project, and the parts I sent into them were lost. The project has vanish into a puff of smoke and probably will not be happening. However, I have mentioned to Randy’s Ring and Pinion that they should make a 33-spline version of their 31-spline locker (similar to lockright) as is available here:  http://ruggedrocksoffroad.com/nissan-patrol-spartan-locker-by-randys-ring-pinion-h233b-31spline-p-36117.html
