Guess Ill do a build thread here..
I have had my Xterra for right at a year.. I had a 06 Frontier and a tornado killed it on Good Friday... (Of all days) 4-10-09 Murfreesboro,TN

The truck was worse than it looks.. I also had 4000$ worth of musical gear in it Was heading after work to trade it for a couple jet ski's..My luck!

The day I brought the 2001 Xterra home..

Since the tornado went through the town.. I had to get a car or truck fast.. I knew I wanted a 4x4 and loved my last Nissan.. I gave the Xterra a try..
The power difference of the 06 Frontier to the 01 Xterra was sadly noticeable... untill I hit the 4 wheel drive!

And so the Mods begin.

Bye bye silly Nerf bars and mud flaps... Im so not a sticker guy... till the Xterra

It was take your SUV to work day..

The old put the CB in the dash trick! My very first mod..

Now as a Land Surveyor I have done my share of Off roading... But when its your car... SMILES!!!!

Then I learned how to paint some plastics...

Then I was invited to one of the best OHV parks I have ever seen...
COAL CREEK / Windrock mountain in East TN...

 

[drbandkgb]

You would know the last part of the trail id slip in to this...

So next I wanted some lights.. I found these at Northern Tools...12.99 for two lights! YES PLEASE! I figured for that price if I broke them who cares!

Then the PML

Its crazy how much bigger the AC shackles are

So I painted the shackles white... and thought I have a little left over

The lift made those tires look small!

After searching for a light bar..I just couldnt find one that didnt look like a piece of metal on top of the rack
So I made my own... (And started selling them)\

 

[drbandkgb]

With snow on the ground.. me and my Jeep buddy had some fun

Seen these Deserrt runner rims on a few Xterras... Had to have some..100 dollars later

 

[drbandkgb]

Added 2 more light up to 12 in the front

Ah..good old Coal Creek... Met IZBERG there and seen his beast of a X!

 

[drbandkgb]

this is almost where I went on my side a few months before... WASN'T going to happen again was it?
NOPE!
My light bars I sell..

Found this cheap little ebay find... 60 dollars later

Seen this pix.. had to have it..

 

[drbandkgb]
