Hi every one, I'm a newbie on the forum. I'am 23 years old and I from Québec in Canada. So, I just like to say that english is my second language, so, you not understand some of my comments but I'll try to be as clear as I can so that every one can understand. It starts 2 years ago when I bought a 2002 Nissan Xterra SE S/C Silver Ice with only 78 000 km (around 47 000 miles if I'm right) I just don't find the pictures I took a this time but I think you know what it's look like. Fisrt mod was a set of tire before winter, so here comes the BFGoodrich All-Terrain. I also put a set of 4 KC HiLiTES 6 in with 100w each on a custom light bar made by me and two friends of mine.

So nothing very special came after the light bar until we made a custom roof rack with tire carier.

So, an another winter pass and the sun still give an old and faded look day after day, so, I decided to paint all the plastic and take off the step rails and mud flat. I put an AEM Brute Force CAI and a magnaflow muffler. I also did a PML but still take picture since it's done. I got some custom rocksliders on the way and new Quest alternator. So this is how she stands today. I'm sorry for my post in 3 sections but I don't understand how to put pictures between the text. Maybe someone could help me. So, I'am waiting for comments and suggestions. Hope to talk to you soon guys!

Looks like the X was up to it's axles in the first set of pics. Was it stuck? I don't have snow wheeling experience since I live in Hawaii, but if the snow was sand, it would mean stuck.

Thanks for the comments... your X is a beast, I maybe like to put this RANCHOl lift on mine. For the muffler, I'm not very satisfied. It's sound very very quiet. I'll try to remove the two resonator after de catalyser and maybe it'll sound better.

Je viens de pas très loin de chez vous, bien pas très loin, c'est une façon de parler. Je suis de Yamachiche, près de Trois-Rivières, à environ 1h30 de chez vous. C'est bien de voir que je suis pas le seul à parler français sur ce forum. Au plaisir de ce reparler!

Yes I was stuck. The problem was that the snow was very wet that day and when the truck was slipping, the snow just change to ice, so thera was no way to have traction. So, all day, me and my friend (the grey TITAN) just tow each other all over the field.

Nice looking X! Then again, I'm partial to silver. ;)

That is a good wheel/tire choice.

I got some time to take pics of the PML. I think it look pretty great. But now that the PML is done, all the bottom ball joint start to ''skeek skeek'', so I think I need to put some money on that. Let me know wath you think about this PML.

And I also took some pics of the custom slider that are the way, I think they will look pretty good on the truck. Sorry, the X is really dirty!

You're right but this time, it was dirty because of the dirty road we got here in Québec when it's snowing and this salt and sand are really really bad for the body of the truck (rust)

By the way, I'm painting my sliders at this time, so when they'll be done, I'll take some pics.

Nice looking X sir, I like the rack y'all made it looks good.
Can you show some up close pics of the mounts you made for your fog lights?

I'll try to take some closer pics for you. It's a really simple mounting system. I'll take some pics and I'll try to explain it to you when it'll done.

I just took some pictures for you today but I was not quite sure if you were meaning the lights of the lightbar or the lights on the roof rack so I took pictures of the two types of lights mounting. So let's begin by the light bar, every lights has is own plate welded on the tubing and each wire is pass trough the lightbar and trough the roofrack till the inside of the X. The light bar is fix with the help of the stock rack bolt. It's really simple but with this way of mounting, the lights are a little bit to far from the windstopper (I don't know how you call that) and it's reflecting in the inside of the X by the sunroof, so I just put a black vinyl by the inside of the truck to block the light.

And for the back up light on the roof bar, those are some cheaper lights that are use on machineries like tractor or loader. We just make a hole in the roof rack and wired it up by the stock roof rack till the inside of the truck.
