  1. 2016 NV2500. I replaced my front brakes, rotors and pads around 50k miles. This seemed a little soon, but I had the steering wheel shudder issue. I went w cross drilled/slotted. They lasted about 30k miles. Decide to take it to a shop and let them do it since I had shoulder surgery. Went w heavy duty pads and stock Nissan rotors. Brakes were squeeling, went back and found what appeared to be a defective pad, replaced pads, turned rotors. Apparently a caliper was sticking. Got the steering wheel shimmy within a 1000 miles again. Went back, turned rotors, replaced calipers. Within a couple thousand miles, had the shudder again, turned rotors, now after 4K miles, I am getting the shimmy again. I carry tools in the back of my van, but it is by no means loaded down. I have not towed a trailer since all these trips to the shop. I am not a hard driver. This van should not have to be babied/downshifted/tow mode to make the brakes last. If I was pulling a heavy trailer without brakes, then I could understand, but I am not. I set up an appointment next week to take it back for the 5 time. This is an excellent shop. They don’t do crappy work. They are scratching their heads. Does anyone have any suggestions?? thanks

    Remove cargo lights

    I added a 5' strip of LED's down the middle of my 2500 cargo van. I tapped into the existing wiring, leaving the factory lights installed and working. I just flipped the switches to off, but they are there if I ever need them. One problem.....now my front light in the van (not the cargo area) does not work. Looking at the schematics, if one has voltage, all of them should. I checked for voltage at the connector and it was 0 with the door open. Does anyone know where the front light harness ties into the main harness? I may have messed it up when pulling wires for my front and rear cameras.
  3. Also interested in cng conversion. Please post what you find. Thanks
