    Skinny's Frontier Build - Blanche

    Lets talk snorkels. I've never been a fan, especially of the molded plastic units. After some hunting I found a few companies in Australia that make stainless options. However, none for the US market Nissan D40/Frontier. After chatting with Meredith Metalworks out of Brisbane we settled on a...

    Skinny's Frontier Build - Blanche

    As the original battery was on its way out, I decided a larger unit with better stats was the way to go. A group 31 northstar was what I ended up with. It required slight modification to fit, but way more CCA and amazing reserve capacity has been a game changer. Extending the fuse block mounting...

    Hi lift and rotopax fuel mount swing out Complete with drop down table. Spare tire swing out, I really dig the minimalistic Precision Welding logo. Not big and obnoxiously branded like some companies

    Skinny's Frontier Build - Blanche

    After the front bumper, it was only logical to go ahead and get a rear bumper sorted. I again went to Eolivas at Precision Welding and we designed and came up with a dual swing out bumper. Recovery points, hi-lift and rotopax mounts as well as spare tire. Integrated receiver and, bonus, a small...

    The backside of the stock bumper skin, post cut Cut bumper skin and grill that will be retained. This is a very heavy fairlead and I'll eventually change it out for a factor 55 unit. Much like the 1997 thriller - FaceOff

    Skinny's Frontier Build - Blanche

    Install wasn't all that difficult, the most annoying process was trimming the factory bumper cover (which I still need to go back and touch up but I'm lazy) also had to modify the fog light housings. Cut line Fog lights in after some dremel work on the housings. These were the fog lights I...

    Up next was a high clearance front bumper and winch. Eolivas (on the club frontier forum) of Precision Welding set me up quite nicely. Integrated recovery points and pockets for for lights, plus a well thought out radiator skid plate. The recovery points actually tie through the bumper to where...

    Skinny's Frontier Build - Blanche

    From there things got a bit more serious in the suspension department. After research and figuring out the type of travel and terrain I was going to tackle I went for a titan swap. Nisstec came through - after 6 months of waiting and multiple phone calls and missed parts out of their kit...

    Skinny's Frontier Build - Blanche

    Figured I'd hop in the way back machine and throw together a quick and dirty build thread with what photos I've got. Not 100% complete as I don't generally document everything. Where it started - Bone stock 2016 Nissan Frontier Pro-4X Well . . this is with a 1.5 x 1 inch spacer and block lift...
