Definitely a nice truck! Good work on it.

(only thing I dont like is the instrument cluster mod, but its your truck )

I will take pics when I go.
I will have to go to a place called Jim Creek, cross the Knik River, it's about 6' deep depending on the time of the year, always cross going down stream, you will end up about a mile away from where you started, I always break rear shock mounts here, grade 5 and 6 bolts dont hold up well, drive a few miles across an old glacier bed, now it's rocks and sand (the usual stuff), the go thru the (tunnel)it's a river pretty much, 4' to 10' deep and about a 1/4 mile long, then another few miles to the glacier, thats about it.

To tahoe_x

It is dark here about half the year.
The stock does not light so well.

I also replaced the original white lights with Super Bright Blue LED's.

You can see them in the picture, but when they are all on, I think you would like them..

I meant to say, you (cant) se the LED's in the picture, but when they are on, the entire cluster lights up, easy to see, and kinda cool (a nice side effect)

Here are pics of my other TOY!!

You have very good taste in trucks.

Well alrighty then, I have just finished taking measurements an I am gonna put 35's on her, Wont have any probs with space, looking at gears right now, to replace, HHmmm
any ideas?

Sweeet ride for sure
How about some video (for sound clips) of one of those river crossings?

Edit to add- I guess I didn't see the 2nd page 35s'd sure look nice on a solid axle X, like yours.

2nd edit- Check out my boy Steve. LINKY If you've got anymoney left for your TOY, he can help you let it go ...

"6000 Watt Inverter"

is that peak or continuous? and where did you find room for a monster like that.

I had a hard time finding room for my 600 Watt. I do want a 6000 though.

dude, SICK yota! very very nice

22RE right?

Yup, the Toy is an 1989, first year with that body style.

22re is what it is..

used to ru8n side drafts on it, but the tickets were adding up way to fast...

dual shocks on each tire, dual stabilizers, and kicker shocks on the rear, kept it smooth..

SSHHHHHWWWWEEEEEEEEETTT!

Cripes I WISH I could dump that kind of $ into my Xterra, even if it were over a couple of years...

FYI, you mounted the U-bolts at the front of the engine skid upside-down...

Brent

whats up with that guy on your guest book saying that you can't put a body lift on an X. He seems to think it's a unibody like the XJ...

Tom

that is the nicest X i have seen in a while...

good work!

Brent - You mean the ones that are supposed look more like this:





I think his got too cold....look, the plates all turned blue.

I could get the bolts in the correct way.

Just could'nt get the hands in there to put the nuts on.

I have full sized hands, trying to work on Japanese sized cars.

I put them on the best that I could.

Yeah - I had to glue the nuts to hold them in place on the rear skid...what a bear!

Carry spare bolts . Have you ripped any off yet? The plates look pretty clean..

Whats the alarm with tazer? You plan to shock would be thieves???

Nope... I have some people up here talk about using the same thing. It is for BEARS, they know vehicles have food and they will bust em up pretty good.

PS: Nice X

Goddamn, that's a lot of parts! Nice truck, I'm green with envy over here.

No, I have not tore any bolts off yet.
Just put the plates on a ouple of days ago.

Well Alrighty now...

The Rear Diff Skid Plate has been delivered along with the Shrockworks Rock Bars.

Just gotta let the paint harden up, and on to the X they go!!!

Still waiting on the rear bumper and tire carrier to get here.

I also ordered a new rear view mirror, the one that auto dims,has a compass and thermostat.
The fisrt one sent to me didnt survive the trip, USPS, go figure, Got another on the way UPS 2nd day, here we go again, transit times....lets see how UPS does on not destroying this one like the post office did.

How did you mod the Xterra into a hovercraft, that's sweet
