im new to 4wheeling an im looking to pick up a 1st generation xterra 4x4 V6. i was wondering what size lift would i need to fit 35in tires? could i get the lift in a complete kit (like i said im new to 4wheeling but im very mechanically inclined) so i wouldnt have to buy xtra parts? also ive been looking for awhile and havnt come up with any GOOD websites that sell a lot of xterra parts. does anyone know any sites that sell: lifts, locking diffs, skid plates, bumpers, light bars, ect... for xterras?

welcome to the club!
hope you find an x you like

as for parts sites

www.4x4parts.com
www.shrockworks.com

there is a stickied post in one of the sections titled "helpful links" that has a bunch more

theres also a thread discussing 35" tires int he wheel and tires section

Just found another offroad parts store that's added an xterra department and it's here in Alabama.

What they offer is small but they claim to sell Shrock sliders for $288.00.

This is the direct link to their Xterra department:

sweet, i wonder what their turn around time is

On their website, they say "please allow up to 3 weeks as these items are custom made to order".

Maybe with them being a Shrock distributor, Shrock may set them as a priority above individuals because I've heard his turnaround is 4 - 5 weeks.

shrock told me a 6 week turnaround and that was with no shipping since i would pick them up......

Damn! Sounds like it might be time for Shrock to do some expansion. Think I'm still going to go with ( edited by json3904 ) for my sliders. He says he can have them out within 3 weeks from the time payment is received.

Sounds like Drake's source for sliders must be classified...

for right now yes... long story........

Great, and I have just the type of nature to be curious about such a thing. Oh well, I'll just console myself with the fact that I would probably just make home made sliders anyway if I ever want to go that route. So I suppose it doesn't matter, but still....
