Trixter404's 2011 Night Armor Xterra

[jhberria]

Thanks, Josh. I lost about a 1/2"-5/8", which is about what I expected and also the amount I would have adjusted the coilovers by if it hadn't dropped from the weight.

As far as location for the snorkel install, I'm good either way. If you're down this way, we can do it here (my garage is still a mess btw) or, if you prefer, I can head up to your place. I need to make a trip to Oly anyway.

That height loss isn't bad at all. I suppose that's the benefit of the 650lb springs.

I'm going to be in Chehalis at 9 am Saturday, so I can head your way after that? No issue with the messy garage, hah. If it makes you feel any better.........mine still has our Christmas tree in it. Also, any interest in potentially hitting up Tahuya for a couple hours on Sunday?

Sounds good. I'd be down for a trip to Tahuya also.

It's funny you mention your Christmas tree...I just cut mine up last weekend so I can throw it in the yard waste bin.

Sounds like a plan.

Do you have the proper sized hole saw, or should I pick one up?

 

[Trixter404]

Already planned on grabbing one so no worries.

Snorkel installed.

To drill or not to drill...

Drilled...

And done...

Nice job on the snorkel! Still working up the courage to drill a hole in my fender

I need to join a snorkel-envy support group. Well that or save up my pennies and buy one. So very cool looking. We live in a summer dust bowl up here, I'm willing to bet a snorkel would help suck in some fresher, less dust laden air. ( yeh, that's how I will sell it to myself.)

Yes. I know. I've been throwing $$$ at the Xterra all winter and just couldn't squeeze any extra out of the budget without the CFO putting me in a time out corner for awhile. Ha.

Hah!...same here. I just couldn't pass up the deal on the snorkel though!

That looks killer!

'05-'08 grille painted and installed and finally installed the Nissan side window vent visors that I got for Christmas.

Nice! I've see you've got the tent mounted for this weekend. I threw mine up top today, as well.

Thanks! Yes, tent's up and ready for camping! You're headed down today, correct?

I'm headed out to the Staircase region on the Peninsula in about an hour to hike the Flapjack Lake Trail and camp in the mountains, then I'll be working my way down the coast tomorrow.
