Getting my new UCAs, Radflos, shackles and battery tray today. Been spraying all the bolts to make the install go faster on Monday. Thinking about getting some aluminum skid plates from a guy in the states. $1050US shipped to the house

What did you do to your rig today?

Post by Scotto »

Had to change out some gaskets on the passenger side exhaust. Couple heat shields needed to be ripped off due to rattling. That meant taking off the cat to get at the crap. Not a big deal but sort of a PITA.

As the truck hits its 16 year mark little bits are falling off. But still running like a bugger. Also have a new O2 sensor for the one that got hit by something at AW. Probably do that tomorrow when it's not raining.

400,000+km and still good! Aimimg for 500,000 on it.

Well the beer is a no brainer , i know the engine and transfer case ones are 30 bucks new , i know the radiatior one is 154 new , the gas tank however is the expensive one , from Nissan they are 354.00 pretty sure they are a little insane on that. so give me a affordable price and ill see what i can do. also don't forget i still want that air mattress for the Xterra

Looks like your approach angles will be good. Might be a little tight on straight on stuff. I would move the strap for the winch to a higher level.

But very nice!

The plate unbolts and the strap goes in a bit tighter. Just tossed it there after pulling a Ford pickup out of the snow last week

So I brain farted when I bought my m205 diff. I ensured it was 3.36 like all Pro4x's, except for manual. So the truck looks great, but is currently dysfunctional due to too much variance between the gears. That means, another upgrade!! 4.10s have been ordered and should be installed next month while I'm in the field

Yeah you wouldn't have found a m205 with lower gearing than the 3.36, that was the lowest ratio available in the Titan and Armada.

I did, going with the hefty tube style with winch cradle and a stinger. Local guy in Edmonton is doing the work over the weekend while I'm visiting my father
