Nissan is updating the Frontier for 2009 with an off-road package called PRO-4X. The package adds Bilstein shocks, additional skid plates on the oil pan and transfer case, an electronic rear differential locker, an electronic 2- or 4-wheel limited slip (applies the brake on the spinning wheel) and BFGoodrich P265/75R16 Rugged Trail tires.
The PRO-4X package will be available in crew cab and king cab body styles. The PRO-4X models are powered by Nissan's 4.0-liter DOHC V6 engine, which produces 261 horsepower and 281 lb-ft of torque.
Nissan will start selling a re-badged Frontier to Suzuki in the 2009 model year. I wonder if the Suzuki Equator will offer the PRO-4X package. I'm expecting aggressive pricing by Suzuki to gain some attention in the mid-size pickup marketplace.
