1993 Nissan Hardbody Pickup from North America

Summary:

Dependable inexpensive truck

Have had no problems with this truck.. Been changing the oil and did the brakes shoes plus some new tires and all is well. Interior light is crap, cab is small and needs weight in the rear in the snow, but other wise love it.

1993 Nissan Hardbody Pickup kingcab SE 3.0 from North America

Faults:

The manifold bolts start backing out and had to be replaced at around 50,000 miles. This problem continues around every 50,000 miles or so. Nissan should be responsible for this problem. It is around $500.00 to get fixed.

Automatic transmission was rebuilt at 231,000 miles.

Motor still going strong. It sometimes has some clicking for a few seconds when it is first cranked.

General Comments:

Great truck. Still drive it everyday.

1993 Nissan Hardbody Pickup SEV6 3.0L V6 from North America

Summary:

The greatest truck ever made, next to a HUMVEE!

Faults:

Changed transmission at 16500km. Had rear springs re-sprung at 192000km.

General Comments:

The greatest truck ever made, next to a HUMVEE! This truck is awesome - it's comfortable for a real truck, it is nearly unstoppable in mud and snow, it's great on gas, fun to drive, and looks cool. On top of that, it's been very reliable.

1993 Nissan Hardbody Pickup Hustler 2.4 litre from North America

Summary:

Best little pickup on the market!

Faults:

Starting motor replaced at 150,000 kilometres and the ERG valve was replaced at 170,000 kilometres. Other than that just general maintenance and tires.

General Comments:

I love my little 1993 Nissan Hustler.

If all the rest of the vehicles that I owned were as cost efficient and reliable as this, it would have saved me a lot of money.

In the 12 years that I have owned this vehicle it has cost me practically nothing in mechanical bills and every time I drive it, I drive it with complete confidence.

If the truck fell to the ground tomorrow, I could not say a bad thing about it. It has treated me well.

It may not be a giant on the road, but it serves the purpose for me. Plain and simple this is a great little truck for the money. I would buy another one tomorrow if I had to.

I cannot see how anyone could put this little truck down. You must remember this is not a Hummer. You get what you pay for.

1993 Nissan Hardbody Pickup 4X4 4 Cylider from North America

Summary:

Awesome Truck

Faults:

I replaced the transmission @ 110000 miles. ($1000) Also I replaced the E-brake Cable.

General Comments:

This is a killer truck. This truck can handle just about anything. The 5-Speed Manual transmission complements the 4X4 well. This truck has never let me down aside from replacing the transmission, which eventually goes bad on all Nissan trucks. (You just have to deal with it.) Overall this is an awesome truck. I actually think it is indestructible. I bought it 40000 miles on it and it ran like a Benz untBenzil. I sold it with 140,000 miles. I actually sold to a person that I know and it still runs to this day nearing 200,000 miles. I believe that it will make it to 300K. I loved that truck and regret selling it.

I have a 1993 nissan hard body 4x4 with a 2.4 in it, and the truck runs like a top. It's my first truck I have ever owned and I have been places with it you would not even take a ATV or jeep. It's now got 109,000 miles and runs like 1,000. On the coldest mornings I can go out in get in and it only cranks over 2 times and shes ready to hit the trails. I never had a problem other then I had to replace the valve cover gasket. I LOVE THIS TRUCK.

1993 Nissan Hardbody Pickup 4x4 KA24E from North America

Summary:

Good for city driving, but not good for highway use

Faults:

Well somebody put a low pressure line going to the fuel filter so I was lucky I caught it.

Doesn't get very good gas mileage.

General Comments:

Handles like a sports car for its height.

Side windows are poorly tinted.

Transmission is geared way to high even in fifth the engine is racing to just go 65.

If the engine is racing in 5th at 65 mph, I think you mean that the engine is geared to low. If it were geared to high then the engine would be lugging along. Low gears=high rpms, high gears=lower rpms.
