    Meet Yeti - 2013 Nissan Xterra Pro-4X

    Stuck with the stock Pro-4X size, 265/75-16. I went back and forth and for my needs, the slight benefits of the 285 didn't outweigh the negative issues. I also didn't want to go with a E load rated tire and nothing I wanted was offered in 285 size that wasn't E load rated. Given the 265's are...

    Meet Yeti - 2013 Nissan Xterra Pro-4X

    Next upgrade I wanted to do is the factory fog lights. These are fairly useless and after the new LED headlight bulbs, you really didn't see any difference with them on. I decided on upgrading them to Diode Dynamics SS3 Pro fog light kit. Install went fairly okay, once I could figure out how to...

    Anyone have an experience with ROC Trailers

    Hi all, Just happened across ROC trailers from a ExPo classified ad and did a search here, to find out some info. I was surprised to not find anything. Does anyone have any experience with these trailers? Really liking the design and construction. https://roctrailers.com/home

    Meet Yeti - 2013 Nissan Xterra Pro-4X

    Finished up the last roof rack project. Built my mounts for the MaxTrax boards. Commercially available mounting plates were too expensive for what they were, so I picked up some 1/4" aluminum plate and built my own. Happy how they turned out. Can't even see the boards from the front or side.

    Bob the Campulance. E350 Crestline with Roof Raise. V3 in Progress.

    I have been using the Hot Shot stuff in my GM 6.2L diesel but really haven't put many miles on it. It seems to have good reviews (outside of Amazon) so I figured I would try it and seems to be working fine.

    Meet Yeti - 2013 Nissan Xterra Pro-4X

    Picked up the hardware I needed to complete the install of the awning. Very simple since I already had the mounting brackets installed. Happy with how it sets up and works. Now I am waiting for my MaxTrax mounts to come in, so I can complete that part and the roof rack project will be done.

    Meet Yeti - 2013 Nissan Xterra Pro-4X

    Last up was to setup my Ram ball mounts on the dash, so I can mount my Overlander GPS and InReach satellite message system. Used a piece of aluminum as a backer to the mount, so spread the load. Worked out as I hoped and when in the seat, it doesn't block the radio or view out the front. Yay...

    Meet Yeti - 2013 Nissan Xterra Pro-4X

    Today has been a productive Xterra project day. Overall things went smoothly and about how I planned them. First up was installing the cargo box on the top. Lots of measuring and drilling 4 holes in the box and piece of aluminum (to spread the load) and bam, box is mounted. Filled it up with...

    Chinese Trailer - NJStar Explorer

    Looking good. I think one thing that likely won't be DOT approved is in the last side pic, I see both the front and rear side marker lights are yellow. I believe the rear ones need to be red, from most trailer codes I have seen.

    SOLD-1995 Stewart and Stevenson m1079 registered as a rv. expedition ready/ ecohub and cab rack w/ lights) 55k

    Important for folks to know, since you are in CA. Is this registered in CA or elsewhere? I know CA smog laws have made it very difficult to get a lot of ex-mil vehicles registered now.

    Okay, got a plan together and parts finally arrived. Going to do a uni-strut crossbars on the factory rack rails. My plan it to hold a awning on the pass. side, a privy on the driver side, a Pelican box mounted to the uni-strut, to hold the folding toilet seat, Wag bags and toilet paper. Also...

    Chinese Trailer - NJStar Explorer

    Definitely curious how this turns out. I have watched a few videos on these trailers and they seem fairly legit but not being able to see one in person, it's hard to say. Wishing the very best for your purchase and the review once you get it. :)

    “Hermes” 2007 Xterra Build thread

    Nice looking rig! I have had 2 XJ's, a 1st Gen Xterra (SE Supercharged) and now my P4X Xterra. Really enjoying driving the X over the XJ. Just seems more relaxed to drive. We'll see how it does in the dirt. :)
