Nissan Frontier Off Road Trail Test

In this video I take my 2018 Nissan Frontier up into the woods to explore and find an off road trail to tackle. The trail ended up being pretty easy for the truck to tackle, and I am quite pleased. It was a great test to discover I wasn't even scratching the potential of this rig.

Best truck on youtube 😍

[@OhioFrontier]

Fine then, no love lol, jk. He has a badass truck

[@TheAdventureZombie]

Thanks! ❤

[@thedude828-ed2nn]

​@@OhioFrontiertrust me we all love yours lol

[@ColoradoStreaming]

I have to say that rear bumper really cleaned up that departure angle.

[@TheAdventureZombie]

Yeah it did :)

[@SpawnOfOden]

Glad to see you making videos again, man! looks like fun.

[@raysiebert6758]

Good job on the video. Keep them coming. My favorite kinds of trails.

[@TheAdventureZombie]

Thanks, will do! I'm doing a front and rear swap with a regear and an e locker coming up 😈

[@timothywildhaber2798]

Great video, nice to see your Nissan going off road !!! GOOD JOB BROTHER , GOT YOUR SELF A NEW Subscriber!

[@drewolm]

Very nice build on the Nissan.

[@4x4addiction3]

very cool truck. Nice build

[@kyle1758]

Love the truck man. I'm in the process of doing the same for my 2005. Got it in mint condition with 150k and it looked like it had never seen a dirt road, but I went bumper to bumper with all maintenance items, now comes the fun stuff. Got my lift, high clearance uppers, winch mount and winch, rock sliders and new tires. Can't wait to get it all installed this weekend.

[@TheAdventureZombie]

Awesome! Sounds like a great build!

[@krisnickfffs]

That Beanie is an Army PT cover. That is a beautiful truck!

[@OhioFrontier]

Great video, nice to see another frontier offroad channel

[@TheAdventureZombie]

More to come!

[@OhioFrontier]

@@TheAdventureZombie looking forward to it. What state you in, the forest was beautiful

[@TheAdventureZombie]

@@OhioFrontier Oregon :)

[@OhioFrontier]

@@TheAdventureZombie your lucky. Looks so awesome out there

[@AndrewM83]

It's good to see more Nissan frontier KZbinrs out here @OhioFrontier and @TheAdventureZombie

[@camiloherrera7546]

Great looking truck bro love that rear bumper

[@TheAdventureZombie]

Thank you!

[@chawnyray]

Great looking rig and video content man. I also have the ADO Koni set up with added leaf in rear and the ride off and on road is amazing. Towing is still great too! The best truck I've had in a while and I just came off of an unreliable POS Chevy ZR2 lol This truck is underappreciated as a platform. I have the exact same air-down tool as well but I don't like how slow it is so I just remove the valve stems now. Definitely digging the build man

[@TheAdventureZombie]

Thank you!

[@FrogtheSamurai_007]

Awesome bro just awesome

[@softroadingthewest]

The truck looks great!

[@TheAdventureZombie]

Thanks, man, much appreciated! Locking rear end with 3.69 gears and matching front diff are next :p

[@joshuagutierrez5867]

I'm glad that you actually explained what You have on the vehicle Tire sizes and suspension.. Maybe a video On just that subject...

[@TheAdventureZombie]

I have a video on my lift specifically already, I think I cover stuff about my tires in that video as well. I was running Milestar Patagonia M/Ts at the time though. Do not recommend.

[@williamfawkes8379]

The dog does great with the camera. 👍

[@TheAdventureZombie]

🤣

[@Sergiop4x]

the Koni 90s have been great for me as well. running similar set up.

[@TheAdventureZombie]

Awesome! I love mine :)

[@kingfish4488]

Good looking truck

[@TheAdventureZombie]

Thanks!

[@i.piss.and.shtt.on.youtube.]

thankyou for this. only offroad videos are for the pro 4x. looking at a SV 4x4 to buy and i needed this video. TY

[@carlosizz89]

Good llittle video, good build so far, do you have a winch on the bumper? Love to see it conquer harder trails haha

[@alcipena7852]

You should do more off-road videos it really help me have more confidence with my Nissan .

[@johnnyreb1475]

With good tires and a little more clearance that thing will go anywhere. Go check out Ohio frontier he's got some good stuff, 4wd adventure does too he's got a new one with 6" lift though.

[@ilycxshh_6552]

looks like where i deer hunt!

[@user-fz2ul7wl2d]

Damn it, theres no place like this in Florida. Im moving so i can enjoy my Pro4X

[@j.patrick7474]

When i hit the link to see the kit you had installed it gave me upgrade options. What all did you install? I won't be crawling just some off road camping. Please let me know, thanks. Great informational channel looks badass. BTW...i have a 2010 Nisaan Frontier SE.

[@johnnyreb1475]

No new videos what's going on, i was waiting on another good offroad frontier channel.

[@A.J.1656]

I'm very interested in those bumpers. I looked at their website and I see that are weld together kits. Did you weld them yourself? It'd be a good excuse to finally learn to weld, but I wouldn't want to get in over my head. Also, did they provide specific instructions for cutting the bedsides or was it up to you to figure it out? I have ~3"suspension lift and 2" body so I'm interested in going from 33" to a 35" tire when I start the next round of upgrades.

[@paulchogolmad6808]

Your wheels, what brand and where did you get them? Nice rig, btw.

[@richiefields4799]

Nice Video! Just curious as to why you selected the heavy front coils and parabolic leafs. I want to do a lift but the many options make my head spin!

[@TheAdventureZombie]

Because I had the heavy steel bumpers, and commonly carried loads in the bed.

[@franw51]

Loved the video. What's the overall lift here? 2" rear and 2.5" front? I take it, it doesn't rub on 285's? That rear bumper is a real nice peice as well. Check out my gen 3 overland build on mine

[@TheAdventureZombie]

All Dogs heavy springs up front, ADO Parabolic springs in the rear with Koni 90s for a 2.5" lift overall, and I added a 1/2" spacer up front to level the truck. Also running ADO high clearance UCAs, no rubbing after some minor trimming up front and the Melt Mod. Thanks!

[@jeremypowell5765]

Nice vid! I'm rocking a similar Frontier SV, and just getting into trail driving. I'm curious, did you add a locker of any kind? Or are you still running the standard open diffs? Because the traction seems really good on that climb.

[@TheAdventureZombie]

Running open diffs in this video, however I have just ordered a locking rear end, so that will be a thing in the future :) I attribute my grip to my Cooper Discoverer STT Pros, I'm loving these tires :)

[@briskhockey]

I just bought a 2018 frontier SV LWB. Love the truck so much. Took it through some serious deep slushy snow and it performed admirably. Can't wait to raise it up a but for clearance. And eventually get at least a rear locker!

[@TheAdventureZombie]

That's pretty much what I did. I did the All Dogs Offroad Koni lift with the high clearance UCAs, then bought an M226 Locking rear with 3.692 gears and a matching R180 front diff and it's been a game changer.

[@dextermcgrubbin]

Those bumpers are awesome. What kind of sliders do you have?

[@TheAdventureZombie]

Thanks! I actually custom fabricated my sliders myself.

[@Kodazot]

No do you have locker?

[@Kfelix2151]

Any tire rub set up like this? Do you have room for chains at least in the rear? Super cool truck.

[@TheAdventureZombie]

No and yes :) Thanks!

[@alexislopez9376]

Sorry my friend, where did I buy your front bumper, I can't find it for my truck

[@mikem6176]

I keep expecting Sasquatch to cross the road.

[@nativeflight7079]

I’m looking into getting a 2013 SL4x4 w/59k miles for 19k. Would you suggest getting it over a 2012 Taco with 120k?

[@roberttophan9314]

Does it have rear locker?

[@VidadeAP]

How much cutting needs to be done for that back bumper ??? I like the look but just hurts me a little to cut my truck hahaha 😂

[@kbtat2]

Have you ever had Bilstein 5100’s and if so how are the Konis compared to them?

[@TheAdventureZombie]

I have not, but I will say these Koni's are butter :)

[@olimpionunez4996]

How do you like the sv 4x4? Im looking at two frontier one is just an sv and the other is a pro 4x. But the price difference is kinda steep with a 7k difference

[@TheAdventureZombie]

Get the SV and then put your own better suspension on it. You'll be lacking a locker still, but you'll come in under the Pro-4X price and you can always add one later.

[@olimpionunez4996]

@@TheAdventureZombie i ended up getting the non pro 4x model. The dealership was being a dick back about the pricing. I bought the 2019 white frontier sv 4x4.

[@TheAdventureZombie]

@@olimpionunez4996 awesome :)

[@travisc3764]

Just goes to show, you don't need the pro 4x to have a good time

[@rangerdanger766]

Thr question is how do these compare to a Tacoma value wise. We almost bought a xtera but there was absolutely no dealer support for 100 miles due to the local dealer going bankrupt over some corrupt dealings

[@TheAdventureZombie]

Value wise they are great. Costs less than a Taco and you can use all the money you save to build it out. That being said there aren't as many aftermarket parts for these, but they are still solid rigs.

[@TheAdventureZombie]

Probably another $10-12k after the suspension, bumpers, locker swap, and wheels tires/misc.

[@TheAdventureZombie]

I got mine from a Nissan parts puller out of AL by the name of Duncan Mills. Price will vary depending on what he can find, but for me I got an M226 rear end with 3.692 gears for my 33" tires and a matching geared R180 front diff for $2k shipped, and then another $400ish to do bearings and paint on the rear. I did all the labor, so that was just blood sweat and tears.

[@AndrewM83]

The 2nd generation Nissan frontier was probably one of the best vehicles Nissan made in my opinion. Earlier years had some issues but 2010-2019 we're solid.

[@tbag-2224]

what psi did you go to?

[@TheAdventureZombie]

I usually default to 15psi, but I also have a ViAir 400p compressor that I air back up with. You for sure don't want to drive at highway speeds on that psi, lol!

[@trueamerican2305]

Looks like idaho

[@TheAdventureZombie]

Oregon :)

[@GoogleToobUser]

Where are you driving? Looks fun.

[@TheAdventureZombie]

This is in Oregon, kinda near Trask Mountain.

[@SpawnOfOden]

@@TheAdventureZombie up in tillamook state forest or what?

[@GoogleToobUser]

@@TheAdventureZombie thank you. I am planning on driving through the area later this year and would like to drive into places like this.

[@TheAdventureZombie]

Pretty stinking close to there. Near Trask Mountain if you know where that is.

[@user-fz2ul7wl2d]

Theres a big difference between going trail riding and just totally bashing your truck. Thats not for me. I tend to be more conservative and do what your doing. Looks like fun

[@robertyoung1726]

It will be nice if I could here the engine instead of music

[@TheAdventureZombie]

No problem! Just mute it and make the sounds with your mouth :p

[@stevethemover]

What happened to the Crosstrek?

[@TheAdventureZombie]

Sold it because I needed something bigger almost a year ago. I'm rocking this bad ass Frontier now :)

[@stevethemover]

@@TheAdventureZombie I did the opposite I sold my TRD Off Road and ordered a Crosstrek…..best of both worlds I was doing way less off road hopefully I’ve made the right choice…….Great channel by the way keep up the good work…..Sweet truck too

[@TheAdventureZombie]

@@stevethemover Thank you :) Honestly I would have kept my Trek, and I miss it dearly, I just needed a bigger rig and couldn't afford two payments.

[@user-fz2ul7wl2d]

I went up an freeway on/off ramp backwards and almost went to jail but i didnt. Cop thaught i wrecked and was flying off the freeway from the top side. Lol.
