Hi I'm new - again

Post by Davcos »

I didn't have many posts here before and only went to AW once, but we had an 04 xterra than a 02. Anyways its been a few years without one and I have always missed it so I just picked up another 02 recently. I know it will probably never be as nice as the last but hopefully I can slowly find some used armour and parts to build her up a bit lol. First things first I need to find someone or a shop to help with a PML as I do not really have the space or tools here to get it done myself. Hopefully by next summer I can go on some trails

Hi!
There are a few trails and runs where you can take a stock truck.
What are you thinking of doing for a PML? Cranking the torsion bars and adding longer shackles can work if the leafs are good.

Welcome back. If your new rig has higher miles new torsion bar adjusters can be a good idea too.

But lots of us drive stock, just remove the step bars and rigid mud flaps. I’ve been in a stock rig for years and still have fun.

You are getting close to a timing belt change too.
