Nothing to add here but hello to a fellow long islander! See you on the sand?

Coming to NY any time soon? LOL

If your interested, you can camp out on the beach on long island - no ground tents. You'd need to buy the out of state resident pass (closes today until it re-opens for purchase in September). If you snagged it today, you could do one night near central Long Island, one night in Montauk and take...

Sucker for the Xterra, nice build!

I would think most of it should fit on a 2012. The brake size may be larger so I'm not sure you can get away with a 16" tire. 31" tires should fit but may need to go on a 17" wheel. For the lift, anything pilot related should also fit.

Thanks!

I'm sure any pilot kit would work. But I used the cheap tema4x4 lift off of ebay. It works but the guy I worked with said installing the real spacers was a real PITA. Awesome to hear the build thoughts! Honestly If I were to to it again I might for-go the lift to preserve other component...

Did a think while socially isolating. I've had this hitch for some time that I've been meaning to install. Fairly straight forward except the bolts on once side took some talking too to get to bite. The holes were rusted over and needed to soak in some pb blaster to get some of the gunk loose...

Forgot to grab some pictures but I brought the truck in for an alignment and noticed that the drivers side cv boot was significantly leaking and the passenger boot was destroyed. I'm sure the increased suspension angles did not help the boots but after inspecting they appeared to be original...

Very cool! Any on-road differences with the rear disconnected?

Really digging this build. I have an 05 MDX which has a passenger axle on it's last leg. Your video inspired me to go OEM instead of aftermarket for the replacement. I have a spacer lift as well! How has it been holding up since the replacement? Also as a side bar I think we're running the same...

Stuck the landing!

Yeah that looks great!

I have a Tema4x4 lift on my Acura. I can't say my ride quality has stayed pretty close to factory. I think upsizing my tires had a larger effect on the ride quality. Awesome build!

Awesome ride! Excited to see where you go with it. Odd builds are always fun. Side note, how are the Volvo AWD systems? Has the car been reliable?
