Nice Xterra! What suspension and tire size are you running on it?

I got a chance to put the suspension with a basic load test by loading up my MX hauler and CRF250X and heading to the motocross track. The medium rear springs handled the additional weight of the bike and gear really well. The overall ride quality of the shock and spring combination were...

So after installing the ARB, i noticed the braking performance was pretty bad as the factory suspension is probably around 179k miles old. I ended up ordering a set of OME Heavy Springs for the front and mediums for the rear paired with Nitrocharger Sport shocks all around. I had them...

I installed a new set of headlights and everything bolted up pretty easy. While I was in there I was able to replace a few bolts and eliminate some squeaking coming from the bodywork. I had some super shoddy General Ameritrac tires in 245/70R17 on all fours and a mismatch spare, so I picked up...

I got my new headlights in today. I can't wait to install them Saturday! Hopefully i can fix the rattling coming from the metal trim piece beeath each of the headlights.

Those XRs are super reliable though, so you really can't go wrong with it. The CRFX series is good, but not quiet legendary status like your XR. I'll look into the FJ spring swap, I've never really thought about it and kind of just passed up on it anytime I saw a thread post about that...

All good things must come to an end. That includes the ownership of my 1999 Tacoma, which I purchased in 2006 right after I graduated college. It was completely stock and spent it's life as my DD, hauling bikes to various trails/tracks, mountain bikes, dogs and various other activities. As my...

I just picked up a 2003 V8 4Runner and the A/C works really well here in Arizona. We're in a desert that is usually pretty dry and it works very well here. It hit 119* F on Saturday and it cooled the vehicle just fine. It doesn't have a rear AC like your 80, but it does have two vents behind...

I like it! The search begins in April!

Agreed, the Tacoma is definitely more fuel efficient and utilitarian. I'm getting about 19 mpg, but that's stock with 31s. I'm thinking the 80 will be the next Toyota 4wd for me. I've been reading about how slow these trucks are. Is it really that bad? Keep in mind, I'm used to a fairly...

I'm a current owner of a great 99 Tacoma. It's a 5 speed, 3rz with manual hubs and a locking rear diff and it's nearing 243k trouble free miles. It's mainly used for hauling my bikes and a little off road travel here and there. But, the xtracab portion doesn't fit my two dogs very well and...

How about a TRD Tacoma with a 2.7? I've got everything you're looking for and I love the truck. It hauls my bikes, takes me anywhere I want and is dead reliable.

It just didn't seem to fit right. It's gone everyone! thanks for looking.

I've got 3 people lined up already, so if these guys pass I'll post it up again.

http://www.smittybilt.com/product/index/53.htm I've got one Smittybilt GEAR seat cover in tan. I used it for about a month and they are pretty much new. Free to the first person that will come pick it up first thing Saturday morning. It's taking up precious space in my small workshop. All...

The adventure model is the lower priced version without the adjustability of the higher end models. I would personally get the standard version, that adjustability is well worth the money. The company itself seems to be very helpful and shipped me a bunch of parts quickly when I needed them...

Alright, this is going up for sale again for sure now. Ireland had first dibs on it originally, if he doesn't want it I've got somebody else on the board asking about it. Here's a pic.

this thing may be up for sale again. if you're interested, shoot me a PM. I'll post pics later today.

Sorry guys, the EU1000i is no longer for sale.

i don't think it can power an a/c unit. I know a buddy of mine uses a big 4500 watt generator on his 18' weekend warrior. You'd have to check your specs in the manual.
