Brilliant video I carnt wait to get mine back on the road. I won't be doing nothing like the driving where you are in the world but I was wondering what mods you have fitted to your truck

Where I live its the opposite. You want a massive floatation tire for the deep snow and a narrow tire for the summer. The arctic trucks here use 44" floatation tire that's about 90cm wide when aired down to 5 psi. It has a 2 ply side wall so its soft and forms a massive foot print. This way you can float on the snow when its over 1.5/2 meters deep. Sadly they cost close to 7K and require monstrous modifications to run, so you wont see the likes of me on them lol. Totally agree with all other situations you mentioned though.

Excellent video. I also didn't know about that recovery gear but want to get it now. Nissan Auto mode appers to be really good. Used it in snow once in my R51LE and didn't notice any slippage or hard engagement. Thought maybe it was just stuck in 4x4 mode since it worked so good. Good piece of mind on wet roads also.

Hey brother just order a lift kit for my T31 2008 Xtrail .. I ordered the 65mm lift kit.. Given you said the most lift yours could handle is 50 mm Do you think it going to be a problem for me ?

Thank you so much for your fast support . I contacted the seller and let him know my concerns . Here is his response. Would love to have your opinion on it "I will explain and you can make the choice. We have many of our 65mm kit our there without any problems so far. Because the car has independent suspension the spacer thickness results in more lift. On some cars with long control arms 30mm spacer gives 50mm of lift. In this case the spacers you will get are 50mm, but they will lift the car 65-70mm. The 50mm kit comes with 40mm spacers. I would not sell if not compatible. It is at the limit, but cars go down by them selves 20-40mm in 20 years. Please let me know if you want this kit or change it to the 50mm kit with 40mm spacers?" What should I replay ?
@ruggedlife 14 күн бұрын
@@nicolasbernal6802 No worries. So looks like you'll get 50mm spacers. That is the maximum I would personally go. I thought the spacer itself is 65mm. That would be too much. You can go ahead with it if you want.

Thanks for the vid. It really helps me understand my 2005 T30's traction. I'm curious, when auto or 4x4 kicks in, the passenger front and the driver's rear wheel spun. How come it was reversed (driver's front and passenger rear wheels turning) when you were able to use the bog strapping when your initial demo didn't spin that passenger rear wheel? Am I missing something about which wheels provide traction? Thanks again
@skarebsuper 25 күн бұрын
just a little confused here, seems like the stock tyre on my T30 is a 17 inch, 215/60/17... so a 16 inch tyre would fit a rim meant for a 17 inch tyre? hmm

No it won't, there are variations to stock rims, 15, 16 and 17. They all have different size tyres but normally similar overall height.

I haven't seen a bigger aftermarket radiator for the Xtrail. As I mention in the video, it was hot that time and one of the fans wasn't working. If it wasn't the case, I would think it will be OK.
