    I recently purchased a 2004 Xterra XE that I intend to have as my daily driver. I want to start off-roading soon and add some mods to my car but if possible I’d like to make it as low budget as possible because I don’t have a lot of money to be spending on my car right away. I was wondering if...

    I live just outside of Atlanta, GA and I'm trying to get help installing my PML from someone who is familiar with it. I know there's a write up on CX but I'd rather not screw it up.
