I’ve got a 02 X. Custom lift. Done 40,000 km of overlanding in the last 3 years. Wouldn’t trade it for the world.

[@RogueOverland]

Love it!

[@z_max33]

I just picked up an 01 to be strictly a daily but now I actually want to mod it lol

[@RogueOverland]

You’re getting the itch! 😂

[@RevengeAvenger]

Dude! I did the same thing. O2 XE/SC. After hearing that whimper of the supercharger and the really solid drivetrain... It's about to go make Jeeps cry for 1/3rd of the $$$. I'm impressed with the durability.

[@beccad2772]

Wow. Yours is great! Wish I could do this to my original 2001. I’ve had her for 20 years. I love mine.

[@RogueOverland]

One step at a time. Thanks for watching!

[@GentlemanEDC]

Looking at purchasing a 2002 with 65k miles, looks like it was garage kept!!!!

[@motivationnation4390]

I kind of like the raptor liner. You can pretty much walk all over the truck without leaving a mark. Pretty nice

[@RogueOverland]

It actually looks pretty good in person too. Thanks for commenting!

[@CasterTown]

I'm super pumped that I grabbed up one of these trucks for a decent price while they are gaining popularity. If you have a 5MT, you've got one of the last trucks ever made with 100% manual drivetrain (transmission and transfer case). This is the only way I want it. Three pedals, two sticks!

[@RogueOverland]

👍 Good luck with the build!

[@johnl9135]

I like the raptor liner paint, always on my mind to do it on my 03 Xterra 4x4, but focus on my suspension first if I would do anything like that. Like how your setup on your Xterra not too crazy.

[@RogueOverland]

Nice! Good luck with your build. Be sure to check out our other rig wall around videos: kzbin.info/aero/PL7mtVK5BmOxyjM8VnT2MIged9O85n1X5L

As of February 2022 I have a 2002 non-supercharged 3.3 V6 with a five speed manual it’s got 109,000 miles on it. I’m the second owner. I’m getting 22 mpg on the interstate.

[@RogueOverland]

Awesome!

[@321sick]

Had an 03 Xterra but had to get rid of it because of all the rust. Looking to get a 2nd gen and to get in to overlanding. Here's to hoping Nissan will bring back the Xterra now that they have a new frontier platform.

[@RogueOverland]

Agreed‼️

perfect xterra!

[@RogueOverland]

We agree!

[@Videona]

Nice thanks for running is through this built...

[@RogueOverland]

No problem! Glad you enjoyed it.

Love it! Good luck with the build.

[@sethmarion2833]

Had a 2001 4x4 and built it out. I loved that thing and traveled a lot states. But man was it a pain to drive on long trips. Slow, and sloppy suspension after changing just about every suspension part out. Still loved it though. Since moved to Toyota and will never look back.

[@RogueOverland]

They are slow on the highway for sure. Thanks for the comment!

Since February I’ve been playing around with a technique called hyper mile I am now getting upwards of 35 to 39 miles per gallon on the interstate five speed stick now has 116,000 on the odometer

We have heard that works well.

[@Mike.D.843]

Nice 1st gen! 👍

[@RogueOverland]

[@DBEdwards]

The look of the vehicle is impressive. Like the floor boards and bumpers. How many miles on it? Does it require much maintenance? What's going on with the roof?

[@colbyreacer139]

Love it! And totally back up the grassroots CL! It’s great if you’re still running the IFS....also, love the rogue jacket! I need one of those!

[@RogueOverland]

Agreed, it's a great product! Keep an eye on our social media as we will be doing presales on some cool products soon.

[@jonathansimmons8390]

I have an 03 that I love but cannot find many lift kits for it. Is there a link or can anyone point me in the right direction?

[@jameslong1644]

Is that bumper custom or off the shelf I really like how it hugs the body line of the front.

What brand is that front bumper?

[@authorizeduser559]

Thoughts on a 2002 xterra se automatic 4x4 clean title with 220,000 for 1500$? Looking for something 4x4 when going up to some property that has steep hills and mud.

[@RogueOverland]

Sounds like a good deal if it runs!

[@cesarconh895]

Never talked about the clogged cats these Xterras are known for

[@RogueOverland]

To our knowledge it is the second generation Xterra’s that have that issue. Thanks for watching!

[@Matsterious]

What happened at 11:25? 🤨😂

[@alfenner3309]

I have always wanted one and just picked up an 03 supercharged. It runs good, but i HATE the valve cover issues. They leak oil like a siv. Any fix for this would be awesome and appreciated. The phillips head screws are getting stripped out.

[@RogueOverland]

Congrats on the new rig! Typically you just need to retighten the screws that hold the valve cover on. Worst case you may need to put a new valve cover seal on there.

[@alfenner3309]

@@RogueOverland agreed on the tightening of the valve cover. I have been doing that, but the passenger side screws are stripped on a couple. I didn't know if anyone came up with a plan to replace the screws yet as the oem ones are a million bucks. Well, near $400 anyways.

I'm in the Branson/Springfield area and would love to get our Xterras together :)

[@RogueOverland]

Congrats on the new rig! www.4x4parts.com is a great place to start. Also watch our other walk around videos as we have three other 1st gen xterra walk around videos.

[@hewang3348]

I got 2 rear wheel drive, could I convert to 4 X4 ?

[@RogueOverland]

Yes, but you might be better off just finding a 4x4 to buy and selling yours.

[@lvwrx]

i had an 05 2wd that was awesome in NE PA snow, i miss it, trans went out and had to sell it 🥺

[@s.t.kfishing3418]

Was it because the radiator mixed it with coolant

[@RogueOverland]

Bummer, that’s a common issue with the 2005 Xterra. Thanks for commenting!

[@glebb215]

Nice Rig.. How heavy is that front bumper??

[@RogueOverland]

Not sure off hand. The manufacture should have that info.

[@calebuilds7373]

i wanna do raptor lining for my 04 x, when i paint (roll on not spray), do i need to take the emblems off and glue them back over the bedliner, or can i just paint around it. id rather take it off i think up close it would look better i just dont know how id put them on over the bedliner

[@RogueOverland]

Taking the off would give the cleanest look. They are double side taped on.

[@user-ko6lz3em2z]

I want to know if l can swap xterra engine into 2008 pathfinder?

[@RogueOverland]

Seems like it should be possible. Give it a google search and a ton of info should pop up.

[@anthonyj5298]

Does 1st gen xterra need any mods to run newer aftermarket wheels?

[@RogueOverland]

Shouldn’t as long as the bolt pattern is correct.

It's hard to say. It depends on if you buy parts new or used and if you install yourself or not.
