@@Banjmedina 100% agree. People get so, so caught up in brand loyalty/hipe. Just take care of vehicle maintenance. Put the money where it matters in the build and go have a good time. Cheers!

@@MrScubajsb word!

i have done both, and i prefer the dirtbike route, i just don't have the patience to go slowly. now trophy trucks get me tingling

About 3.5 inches

@@juliomadriz is that body and Suspension? What kit did you use?

No body lift. All suspension. This was not necessarily a “kit” I just pieced it together over time. It’s essentially a Titan swap. 3.5 inches is about factory height for Titan geometry. My goal was to sit about half way into the travel and retain as much down travel as possible for articulation. This setup takes the most advantage out of the 10 inches of travel I have in the front. That said I believe multiple vendors sell Titan Swap “kits” now.

I agree. thanks for watching!

2007

under the body behind the rear bumper, but if I'm wheeling bigger obstacles and I need more ground clearance I just throw it in the back of the X strapped in in the cargo area

it was a blast. thanks for watching!

Thanks for watching!

gracias!

I would say 2015. It was the last year they were made so they would be the newest you'll find. They didn't change much from 2011 to 2015. If I were buying another one I would look at those years for sure. Cheers

Thanks! I got the bumper from Hefty Fabworks down in Colorado Springs here in Colorado. Cheers!

thanks! and I do have a locker in the rear diff

33’s and titan swapped suspension

Both these trucks were from Colorado and a lot of snow driving.

Find some off road clubs near you - they are everywhere

you have the internet!!! look for your local xterra communities!!

thanks! and not at all! cheers

that's awesome! Xterras are super capable, even in stock form.

no nails that I was aware of, and definitely no patches. I just replaced that set of tires with about 60k miles on them

@@juliomadriz Hey thanks quick reply, at 1:35 min mark front passenger tire at 7oclock position of tire looks like something stuck in tire then at mark 3:23 min front passenger you see out outer most tread at 12oclock black tar like patch work. That is what I saw exactly. Love your X perfectly done looking. Love the stance and all and it seemed effortless for the X too going through areas. Great Vid too

@@dustinr26 Thanks! it does look like I had something in that tire. Although, it was probably a stick or something stuck between the tire tread. I pretty sure I never had a nail in any of those tires and the patch looking thing must have been something I drove over at some point. I definitely have never patch a tire haha. Cheers!

@@juliomadriz hahaha Damn 4k resolution LOL..

December 2, 2018...if I remember correctly.

both these trucks had open fronts and locked rears on this trip

thanks! and yes, I bypassed the trans cooler that is integrated in the radiator. I still have the aux cooler and also added a second aux cooler with a temp controlled cooling fan. I've had that setup for over 100k miles without issues...with plenty of offroading and mountain driving. Cheers!

Awesome! thanks for watching!

fingers crossed!

Nissan is bringing back the Xterra in 2024.

100% agree!

Xterra is supposed to be 2024 but if it even does happen I'm sure nissan will water it down and make it less off road worthy the way they have done everything else in my opinion. It will probably have 22" whiggerriffic's and be 4 inches off the ground, or hell that's probably just in the back the front will probably have 15" of ground clearance.

@@JohnnyRebLa to be fair, the frontier is very offroad capable and the new Xterra, if there was one, would likely share that platform.

@@kylesteinhauser2535 I know that's what I drive but nissan doesn't put much effort into the offroad area.

@@JohnnyRebLa not as much as yota for sure but there's still a decent amount of support for the vehicle and maybe, by accident, they actually made a pretty capable platform in the new generation Frontier so I imagine they wouldn't have to be too beefy on their offroad work when it comes to making another offroader. But I agree, Nissan has become a lease company that happens to make cars these days so it's a bummer.

35s but real locker only. Cheers!

nope. r180 here!

@@juliomadriz nice what spacers are you running in the rear and whats your spring setup? I just added alcans with shackles for 4" of travel and it rides sooo nice!

@@scott8238 NIce! I have OME Dakar HD springs and Nisstec adjustable shackles in the back. I tried to keep lift at about 3.5 inches to retain as much down travel/articulation as possible as well as a low center of gravity. I don't remember the brand for the spacer but I know they are 2 inch spacers.

that thing is a beast for sure!

thanks man! yeah I'm not a huge fan of just constant music over off road clips. I like listening to the sounds on the trail! I usually only add music to drone shots just because there is no sound on drone clips. Cheers!
