Hello Xterra Drivers!
I live in Ukiah, CA. Many of the roads that I drive are unpaved. In the summer, the desert climate equates to dry, sandy, crumbling roads. During the rainy winter months, many vehicles get stuck in deep mud and some roads even wash away and can't be fixed until spring. This terrain provides plenty of opportunities to utilize my 4x4. In fact, I have to use 4low in 2nd gear just to go up and down my driveway!
I own a 2002 Xterra XE. My truck is supercharged and mods include a magnaflow, a K&N filter, and the brushgaurd.

WELCOME!

Looks good man!!

Just be careful with the brush guard and especially the steps. Not sure what kind of stuff you get into, but they aren't the strongest parts on your truck so be aware. Also you may want to take off your rear sway bar. Sounds crazy Im sure, but do a search on here and you might change your mind.

Once again and most importantly, welcome and looks good!!!

yes get rid of the brush multiplier, the steps and with the rear sway bar off you wont have any problems down the road, that you might have if you keep it on......

Nice rig! Welcome to the club.

X2 what iExploreX said about the siderails and rear swaybar. You will hardly notice the difference with it off plus it will save your rear shock.
