    Nissan NAVARA from Norway.

    Also nice seeing Nissans represented in the community! You can go check out the Frontier/ Navara thread if you like and say hey.

    1993 Suzuki Sidekick JLX

    Not sure how many people are following, but for those who are I have bad news. This little rig isn't going anywhere for a while. I found out I was losing coolant a couple weeks ago and with further investigation figured out the head gasket is on it's way out. Parts are inbound but with the...

    1993 Suzuki Sidekick JLX

    Had a productive day yesterday doing some much needed work. By the end of the evening, this little rig ended up with a new center link, inner and outer tie rod ends, ball joints, brake pads and rotors. ALignment is scheduled for Tuesday and we'll see how much better she handles. And I almost...

    Oh absolutely! I found it for a good deal and it made it so I didn't have to modify the carrier too much further for a smaller winch (most on the weight range I need are for quads lol)

    1993 Suzuki Sidekick JLX

    Been busy since the Holidays, but there has been progress! My buddy @Forte brought me a winch carrier for a small truck/ SUV from Nebraska when he moved back to Arizona. It was the perfect size for this little vic so incorporating it into the build was a must. After some material gathering and...

    Recovery Boards

    I have some X-Bull traction boards. They are definitely not a low-profile when stacked but its not terrible. First time I used them I exploded one, but I blame that largely on the sub-freezing temps I was in making the plastic brittle. X-Bull replaced them no questions asked so I really have no...

    SVO ....Small Vehicle Overlanding

    Those CR-Vs always catch my eye, they're super neat when built out a little bit (don't tell my friends I said that) . As far as space, I've been spoiled for so long using a pickup that determining what's essential and what isn't is going to be fun. The current plan is taking out the back seat...

    1993 Suzuki Sidekick JLX

    Maiden voyage! This is the first time on dirt since I've had this little rig so nothing too difficuly (read: easy), just enough to stretch her legs and get a feel for how everything behaves off pavement. No 4x4 necessary this time around, which is fine since I was out with my buddy in his 2010...

    Yeah, you're probably right, it was really clean! But now he gets to watch me drive by as he shakes his fist. Damn kids!

    1993 Suzuki Sidekick JLX

    Quick update. Got the snorkel installed today! Despite having a template that was out of spec, the install went quite smooth; smoother than my Frontier and that had a template that was spot on. I guess it's time to take her for a dip and see what happens! Don't mind the bumper, that's a work in...

    I can't wait to get back out and really start testing your rig, especially once you get some more done! Broken Arrow was such a blast.

    Spotted member #9723 today. He showed up while I was snapping the pic so we were able to chat for a brief second before getting back to business. Sick rig SFC, sorry I couldn't talk more!

    Took these while out in Sedona on Broken Arrow today with @Forte testing out his Jimmy's recent mods. Some of the most fun I've had in a long time.

    1993 Suzuki Sidekick JLX

    It's FINALLY together and on the road . The kit from LRO didn't have the parts available anytime soon so I ended up canceling the order. Thankfully, the kit I originally wanted came back in stock and was 20% off for a month long Black Friday sale. Best part? It was at my door in a week. Thanks...

    1993 Suzuki Sidekick JLX

    Haven't given an update in a while, things have been slow going (just like the 1.6L in this :tongueclosed:). The lift kit from Low Range Offroad has been pushed back to at least Oct 30 due to backordered parts so I'm looking for small jobs to do. All four CV boots have been replaced, the...

    If I can find parts on the cheap then I'd like too. But for now IFS and mini-lift just for some fun.
