August would work for me. I have posted a query in the BC 4x4 forum, to get some insight on running the Whipsaw Trail. I'll see what comes up and let you know. I would certainly be interested in making a good weekend of this. I know that even in September it can get cold and snowy up in the...

Keep me in the loop. I'd be game to come down to Washington in August or September, if the timing works. And also interested in a Whipsaw run around the same time frame (I'm not familiar with the trail, but I think it would be manageable)

Sweet. Love that bumper. And those lights look awesome. I added a second tranny cooler in behind the stock one when I had my front end all opened up. Figured it was a good time to do that. I need to go out and get stuck So I can try my winch. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

I love it when a package arrives at work. My new Scepter jerry cans and water can

Thanks. I've always liked the look of the Xterra myself. It has a kind of purpose built tough look to it I think. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Thanks. I had to splice the ARB harness into the stock wires. I still have to adjust all the new lights. Yes, the ARB fog lights have horizontal adjustment with a set screw. Pretty cool I think. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

And today was a lazy " let's go exploring and find a place for a picnic" kind of day. We found a beautiful overlook that offered great views of our Okanagan Lake. It was a really great day. Even has a wee nap in my new ARB chair. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Replaced the leaking passenger side axle seal yesterday. Was a pretty straightforward job. I bought a $10 seal puller tool which was worth every penny. My wife just bought a new car ( well a new to her 07 Mini Cooper S) so this allowed a more flexible schedule to get the job done. Sent from...

I checked with the BC Nissan off-road group, and some of them are joining up with a BC Suzuki group for a Whipsaw Run in early July. Unfortunately, we will be in Colorado so that is out for us. The Whipsaw Trail is something I would really like to do, but have to sit down and really consider...

Don't forget the vast lands of your good neighbours just to the north. [emoji57] I love the whole (let's call it) "Cascadia" region. BC, Washington, Oregon...... it is one huge blessing from the Gods of outdoor adventure. I've been here in Southern BC my whole life, I live less than an hours...

Thanks, I just ordered one from my Nissan dealer. This has been on my list for awhile now.

That threaded fitting, where did you get it? I should do that mod pretty soon. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Nothing form the rear. I am getting an intermittent front end clunk, but I think the links to the front stabilizer are shot. Back end feels good. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Hey, just noticed this. sorry for the late reply. I'm not sure if they had a weight specific rating, they claim they are "heavy duty". They are a very firm ride, but I don't mind at all. Very stable going around corners now, no body roll to speak of. My last 4x4 was a Jeep TJ, so anything (I...

Wired up the fog lights, signals and market lights today. Ran my wiring harness for the fridge, the spotlights, and the TMax dual battery display all through the firewall. Connected the winch cables up to the stock battery for the time being. Tomorrow I'll finish the spotlight wiring and start...

Today was bumper day, well Good Friday - bumper day I guess. Everything went smoothly today, I would rate it a 1-beer installation. Got the ARB bumper installed, wired up the fog lights, and bolted on the driving lights. Tomorrow I will wire up the turn signals, and driving lights, maybe get the...

My Backroads mapbook never leaves the Xterra. I just bought a new one this year and finally relegated my tattered old one to my work van. I've been to Fernie once, back in the day when I raced DH, we had a BC Cup race at the ski hill. it was pretty awesome, not much time to sight-see though. I...

Fantastic and awe-inspiring scenery. I am slightly embarrassed to say that I have never been to the Rockies as an adult. (My parents stuck me in the back of their VW Bug in 1970 and brought me across Canada as an infant, but that doesn't really count) My Wife and I are heading to Fairmont Hot...

It looks like the passenger axle seal may be leaking ever so slightly. I've noticed a couple drops since I had to reinstall the axle. I'm going to order a seal and new c-clip just to be safe. At least I now know that removing the axle isn't too difficult. Hopefully I'll have the time to get...
