Have an aquaintance that in the last decade has gone from an Xterra to a Frontier to a 4Runner to a Ranger to a 4Runner to an OBW and is finally happy, he says it feel like he's back in his Xterra.

This post actually made me start updating my recovery equipment. Unfortunately, due to a really screwy work schedule, I don't get out as much as I want, only about twice a year, but for other situations it's still good to carry the equipment. I'm actually watching to see what various companies...

Learned this recently, a "hitch pin" as supplied for a receiver hitch is designed for towing, not for recovery, different stresses, while a towing use is a more constant stress, and a recovery is a sudden, occasional stress, they are different. I was delivering to a farmer, got the semi stuck...

Reach out to Nisstec Lifts for the bumpers, they have a source to get them www.nissteclifts.com

I had a talk with the guys at Nisstec about this subject a few months ago, if you have the money to spend, Switchpros is the better option, a few Spod folks, including those with the higher end Bantam have said they wished they had gone with Swithcpros. On the lower end, the Amazon specials...

I currently use a fender lip mount attached to the drivers fender, with a permanent mount antenna base, about 8" long, the steel whip is about 48" and removed when not needed. The CB shop I worked with on the install, he did an SWR check after it was all installed and got it perfect. There's now...
