Looks like a beautiful area! Its a shame it was somewhat spoiled for the weekend but fun none the less!

Well I have a quick update. I know its been a while...... Well This could have been really bad if I was wheeling when it happened..... I was driving to work and my oil pump basically blew up. The oil filter came apart and clogged the pickup screen. It smoked the motor. So I had to get it to the...

Thanks for the suggestion! Their bumpers look killer.

That's a super nice rig! Looks like you got the good end of somebody's project after they got it from gov liquidations! Many nice cucv trucks to be had!

Looks like it's gonna be a sweet rig!

Super nice rig man! Workmanship is tops!

Yeah, killer rig, but from what I understand hard to register? That's the story right?

Thanks for the compliments! Yeah just a little fine tuning with the truck and it should be ready to go! I also have some bumper plans in the works and would like to fit a roof rack with an ez awning. I plan to mostly leave the suspension stock as far as height, but new springs are in order...

That's what I'm praying for! Easy to maintain and land lasting.....

Thanks Richard, for what it's worth I think the xterra is an awesome truck, and really the only rig I like next to an 80 or 100 series landcruiser. It's a shame, I was hoping to get some trail time in soon....
