Howdy y’all! This is my 03 SE! I’m still pretty new to the xterra world, but I’ve had several vehicles in my day and so far this is my favorite!!!
I picked it up a couple months ago for $1000 because the guy couldn’t keep it running. I checked it out and the alternator was bad. I replaced that for $80 and had her back on the road running like a champ.
Since then I’ve replaced all four shocks with Monroe’s and all four sway bar link bolts with moog parts. She handles like a dream.
I’ve also mounted a couple of led pods to the brush guard!
They are pretty bright!
It also had a rusted out muffler, so I got a cheap cherry bomb turbo and welded up in there. Sounds so much better.
Other than that so far, I’ve only changed the front brakes and oil.
My next upgrade that I would like to do is put some good year authorities all the way around it. Hoping I can get that done in January.
I also have a cobra 25 cb I need to install. Just haven’t had much time this week.
I would really like to delete the factory side bars, but the only issue I have with that is my kids use them to climb into the back seat lol. They might just have to get used to jumping!!!
More updates to come soon!!!
