^Same! I'd like to see how this thing has faired long term and what changes were made. Great build and photos!

Checking back in here, you are really starting to sway me toward the infiniti/armada platform. I'm in the need of something slightly larger than my xterra and I've loved the performance and reliability of my rig with the titan swap and i really enjoy the unusual factor that the nissan family...

Beautiful pics as always. I thought i recognized a few of the trails! Love fortune creek and parts of the BDR

Wow nice roof rack! Bedlining the entire roof and installing a new roof rack that keeps everything low is a hot ticket item. Not sure when I'll get to it/if i will but this makes me think it's worth it.

The molle panels worked out well. Trail tested. I need to figure out where to put a select few recovery gear items, as it turns out I needed a strap in a bit of a pinch up to hawkins mountain and mine was buried in the back (classic). Have yet to get the non cell phone photos off mine and a...

Wow very clean ditch light install. And I’m liking what I’m seeing with the LT headers and brake setup! More details on these hopefully?

How the Molle Panel looks. I think it's helped with my storage issues, and trail tested after my last weekends trip:

Did you have to trim for rubbing? Or will a lift/body lift be in the future?

Didn't realize you were local actually. I'm up in Seattle. Love the xterra/frontier platform and really like the performance I get offroad, but I love the styling, amenities and road manners of the LR for more extended range trips. It's no slouch offroad from what I gather although I've never...

I've been heavily considering an LR3 as a potential next vehicle. I'm shocked you found one with such low miles, what a score! Yours looks very clean and I like what you've done with it so far. How has reliability been so far compared to the GX? And what trails have you been able to run with the...

Wow this is beautiful, I'm all about those views! I have not run these trails and will put it on my to do list. That 4runner is pretty legit too. Glad to see these trucks out and about, I'll have to keep an eye out for you all.

How have in not read through this build thread! Some great photos and some awesome wheeling. I like what you've done with the truck. I have such a soft spot for the first gen xterra and frontier. Built like tanks, and about as fast too... But they have some timeless lines and styling in my...

Thanks! I've never felt like the xterra has been tight on space per se (although i don't have children yet either). I find that now I'm trying to get more headroom back for sleep inside, I need to get more creative around how i store my recovery gear and spare parts. I do miss the idea of a full...

Thanks! I've realized that no matter what, I'm going to have to have a core list and then depending on where I intend to travel, add the frequencies for those areas. There are just too many channels and not enough memory banks in my radios to keep all repeaters labelled and organized in a...

I recently purchased a molle panel for the driver side of my Xterra to solve some storage issues. I'm hoping to fit molle bags for my recovery gear and general items that stay in the X. Install was pretty painless. I have opted for two brackets initially but will likely add two more in the top...

Thanks mtn mike, this is a good tip. I didn't realize some were dead. I'll start looking each up individually to see if those clubs running them are active or not.

Thanks Dreadlocks, those are good. I have a list a mile long and I'm trying to pair it down to 100... I guess what do normal people do haha? See below for my collection (maybe it will help others out?)...

Looks like fun! What moto rack do you use? Has it worked well? The one i'm currently using for a DR650 moves around a bit and makes me not want to take it down dirt roads. Your bike is a fair bit lighter but does it hold the bike stable or do you still have rocking/play?

Updates! Been a while since I've been on, but the xterra is still doing well. I've just rolled past 140k miles and probably a keeper for the time being. I’m opting to remove the rear drawer system. As much as I love it, I’m carrying around extra junk I don’t need on the day to day and I need the...

Hi everyone, I've used HAM for a while now among friends/family and it has worked out very well for longer range of communication. However, I'd like to up my game a bit and program both my trucks Kenwood TM-281 and my Baeofeng UV-5R for more channel surfing/monitoring and be useful for hitting...
