Before... bone stock and only a few days only

First lift (PRG 2" spacers, Deaver AAL, & 265/75/16 BFG AT KO's)

Beach pose. My setup here is basically the PRG Advanced 4x4 Kit (PRG UCA's, Radflo 2.0 coilovers, PRG braided SS extended brake lines, Deaver AAL, Bilstein 5125 rear shocks).

UPDATE 6/26/09

Well I have just about all my parts in for my Titan swap. PRG Titan UCA's and 2.5 Rads will be here Monday but, unfortunately, I will not. Have to leave Sun for Buffalo to start knocking out last minute wedding stuff. Will be coming back to VA mid July-ish for my VCU orientation and will be doing the work then, along w/ my M226. That's right! Looks like I will be taking BPotter's rear axle off of his hands for him and swapping out my C200 for some locked goodness!

UPDATE 7/21/09

Titan swapped! PRG UCA's, 2.5 Radflo's w/ 600# Eibach springs, stock Titan LCA's, and 2" wheel spacers in the rear to match the wider front.

UPDATE 10/19/09

Just got the X back from the shop. 3.36 gears in the rear, new Rads and Alcans are in along w/ new Ballistic Fab diff cover. Did the u-bolt flip w/ Titan axle plate, along w/ some Timbren rear bump stops. Mo' bet'ah pics to come...

UPDATE 10/24/09

Added docking station for Garmin nuvi 780

UPDATE 11/9/09

Lowered rear suspension and full stealthy!!!

UPDATE 12/6/09

New HU on the way, Kenwood Excelon DNX9140. Rear KMA bumper will be getting powder-coated (semi-gloss black, so as to match my Shrockworks sliders and front bumper), remaining Shrock skids should be here any day (engine/oil pan, gas tank, & tranny), and after the body shop is done repairing the rear quarter panel & front fender damage I will be having her completely detailed (inside and out) and clay bared & waxed. An exciting couple of weeks ahead for the X!

Oh, and V-LEDS is hooking me up w/ a set of their 5000K slim ballast xenon headlights! After I organized the group buy I did some other work w/ them along the lines of some detailed pics and install how-to's for their specific LED's for the '05+ Xterra. Can't wait!

UPDATE 1/2/10

New Kenwood DDX814

UPDATE 1/30/10

33" BFG KM2's

Nice X.

Are the LED lights built into the swing gate?

Nice X.

Are the LED lights built into the swing gate?

Thanks, and, yes, the lights are integrated into the bumper. Well, there were holes for the lights and I just popped the LED's into their rubber grommet-type housing and then popped them into the holes. The wiring runs inside the swing arm and then out and down to the tow harness below/behind the bumper.

 

[IZVERG]

Got the swing-away LED's wired up and man are they B-R-I-G-H-T!!! Big thanks to Bueno for hooking the cripple up w/ a ride, and to Robert and Javier over at ORR - great work and some really knowledgeable guys. Here are some pics and two videos for different angles' sake.

Really cool X.

Do you know that " IZVERG " in Bulgarian language means - crazy monster, mad beast...

 

[MattScott]

[firemansxterra]

[Starscream]

Wow, wicked truck man! I love the newer generation Xterras. :ylsmoke:

 

[IZVERG]

Really cool X.

Yep, well it's Russian too. I was a Russian linguist in the Army and that was a nickname I got from one of my instructors - IZVERG, a.k.a. The Monster.


And thanks for the comps, guys - she's really coming along nicely!

 

[silentsamurai]

sweet rig man. makes me wanna trade my frontier in for one . I'm currently in the process of learning russian. It's a fun language. Same with japanese.

 

[IZVERG]

^^^Thanks! And yeah, Russian is no high-school Spanish for sure. \

New mods/pics of roof lights...

Got my new roof rack lights mounted up; fronts and reverse.

As laid out... fronts are KC SlimLite series...

(6" 100W fog)(6" 100W driving)(6" 100W driving)(6" 100W fog)

And, after testing the connections via multi-meter, only one of my Hella Optilux 55W fogs is running. Got 'em both mounted and everything but there is an internal problem. Still, just the one is pretty damn BRIGHT!

 

[08whitex]

How is the glare on your hood? I have 4 130 KC long range Slimlites on my rack and and the glare is really bad even with the hood black out.

 

[IZVERG]

Initial post updated w/ sweet new mods!

X and ZJ flex shot added!

I would like to see a daytime shot of the rear bumper on your truck.
