    Curious question: in a 1st gen Xterra, is the gearing ratio between 2High and 4High the same? For example, if I'm driving down a long steep hill, switching into 2Low helps you stay off the brakes and use the engine to brake. But in this case, would switching from 2High to 4High have the same...

    Ok so I just bought my '02 SE a week ago w/ 118k miles on it. When I test drove it I didn't really test the 4wd, mainly because at the time I didn't know I had to push down on the lever to engage 4-lo and 4-hi worked for me. Anyways today I was playing around with it to make sure it did in fact...

    Hi everyone, I'm brand new here and to Nissans in general, so go easy on me. I just purchased a 2007 Xterra S with manual tranny. I have extensive knowledge about Jeep 4wd systems, but I don't know anything about what the Xterra has, except that it's a part time system with high and low...
