Follow along as I attempt to install a Quaife torsen style limited slip rear diff into the Xterra C200k.
(Part # QDF10L, designed for an automatic transmission equipped Nissan 350Z w/ R200 diff)
Specs on QDF10L here:

General Quaife diff...
Purchased this 2010 Kamparoo Transcontinental model (with kitchen) from a gentleman in Michigan.
From reading reviews here it seems they are quite well built and capable on fairly difficult tracks.
Can't wait to go pick it up next week!
I posted this on the new X as well and am hoping for some additional opinions here.
I broke the R180 front diff in my 2014 Xterra this weekend. I'm seeing this as an opportunity to upgrade. I understand the strength advantage of an open M205 against an open R180, because of the weak R180...
I see a small camping trailer in my future and have been napkin-sketching some ideas. I've come up with a fairly simple live-in style design and I can't seem to find anyone who currently builds something similar. I'm curious if there is a specific reason why this design wouldnt work?
I dont...
Stinks!
Averaged 15-16mpg on 1700 miles of pavement (highway) this past weekend.
This needs to be addressed. What are others seeing for average mpg?
(2nd gen in this case)
PRG "Deaver" 2-leaf AAL rear, OME HD front, 255/85R16 BFG KM2's installed yesterday.
I've put about 20 miles on the set up so far and I think it's great. The stiff suspension and tires really transforms the Xterra into the SUV I knew it could be.
I am running it with a ~80lb RTT bolted to the...
$3500! Look at this thing. A vintage original. Please someone take this to a good home.

Classic late 80's track jacket stealing the show on the original Great Divide Expedition. VOLR would never be the same if it saw the likes of such a piece of ballooning nylon.
I have an old jump pack kicking around that still works well enough.
I got to thinking - in theory, it would be possible to plug my fridge into the 12V socket on the jump pack, while charging the jump pack from a 120V outlet via extension cord.
I imagine I could also connect the jump pack...
I just ordered new OME struts and springs for the front of my 2014 Xterra. They will come unassembled.
I am very mechanically capable, however I'd like to read through a how-to with some decent photos of tearing down and rebuilding the struts/top plates before I dive in.
Could anyone point me...
I have a ten year old 9.5ti that I am in the process of rebuilding/refreshing. I want to have the motor gone through because when I last used it 3/4 years ago it was sparking and arcing. Does anyone have experience going through one of these motors that could offer insight or am I better off...
For some reason the Xterra just popped on my radar. I'm looking at a new 2014 S package... for $27k this seems like a lot of truck. I like how it rides and drives, there seems to be good aftermarket support. What am I missing? Why does everyone love the 4runner but the Xterra doesn't get the...
I wouldn't normally post a vehicle for sale here but this LR4 in particular may be of interest to the readers here.
It's a 2010, SE package, which means it's fairly basic. Silver with a black interior, and just 25k on the clock.
It does have the Cold Climate package (heated seats, steering...
Outfitter tent style.
Let's investigate this scenario using a proper roof top tent with an "annex" or changing room added. Like this ARB Simpson example.
Obviously the lower portion of the tent would have to be modified with a stove pipe. What else should be considered? Here is an...
