WOW!! I am amazed! What year is that X? I have an 01 and I am looking for mods. I now have something to look forward too. I cant get enough of that rig. Can you compile a list of the different mods you did? Maybe the part names and companies? Im seriously interested in doing some of these upgrades.

Thank you so much for letting us in on this fine piece of work.

WOW!

Just out of curiosity, what type of range/mileage are you getting in its current state? Have you added any additional fuel cell(s)? My mostly stock SC/SE 04 gets 15-17 mpg..

Thanks
Joe

Nice X, Coachella. Love the set-up; susp., storage, aux. juice, etc. Very Nice! Keep up the good work, sub'd.

Hey all, lots of replies that I have missed.

Recently installed 5.14 gears front and rear to improve some mileage. Get around 16 on the flats now which is fine with me. Looking at installing a manual shifter.

Getting used to pulling the trailer.. man that thing will spoil you!

Are you running 33's or 35's? I run 35's and at best I get 14 mpg. I am usually around 12 mpg daily driving. Same ratio but on a Frontier. I love the set up, Toby had sent me pics when it was in his shop getting the 3 link.
Lator.....

great rig! question for ya; your roof top lights with them being recessed up there in the gobi rack do they provide good light? are they blocked by the deflector? working on a set up and trying to figure out placement for lights. thanks

try this... bmlightbars.com may help

 

[eXpeditionXterra]

The light is fine in that spot. I am changing over to VisionX solos for the sides and reverse lights though. http://www.visionxusa.com/LED-Solstice_Series/c1_48/index.html

Where did you source your second set of control arms after the Calmini lift? Love the X. Nice work.
