Hey Ryan,
You'll still be running a few trails with me, cuz we have to do Hell's together and Top of the World. Remember T's rig is still open unless I get a wild hair and decide to give him a rear locker before Moab.. Give me a call when you know what's up abt the trip in Oct, and we can definitely talk abt the rear bumper..

I am reminded of the scene in Bull Durham where Kevin Costner shows the "Meat " that the ribbon or flower goes in front on the garter-belt. the HiLift goes on the passenger side. but I didn't say princess.... ..............cause yer way bigger than me..... I noticed it in the pics on the expedition portal forum. nice pics by the way...
Mr. Haynes,
LMAO!!!! The Hi-lift will be on the new rear bumper this week, but thanks for the heads up(let's just say it's been that since I picked it up)
Thanks Chris and hopefully I'll see you at CANVAZ..
The custom Hefty front bumper is sweet! How much weight did it save you? I'm assuming its lighter than what you were running. We're you able to use the hefty skid plates with it? I want to pull the trigger on a bumper soon, just weighing my options.

Hey there,
The New Hefty isnt in the pics I pick it up this week, I am running all Hefty Skids on it now. I've decided to get away from the tube bumper. I'll let you know the difference in weight.. You've got some pretty good options now, in my opinion I'm Hefty biased that being said there are some great options out there.. Let me know if you need anymore info/options on the front bumper I have now.
Thanks Bill
Here's what I've accomplished on the rebuild so far:
Rebuilt the PRG UCA's

:headbang: Nice start to a mighty fine Xterra Page, Golf286, as this is your chance to have very own "Xterra WebPage", you have the opportunity to detail and highlight your Xterra to all of us, but . . . . .

Ballistic Fabrication Diff cover showed up today, going to the powder coater tomorrow along with some other parts and hopefully get them installed next week.
hey Golf reading up on your rig , curious hows your feelings on the titan swap ? Still like it , I want to go big and do it right , torn between the swap or the calmini 5" NICE rig btw wow
You ended up keeping your Ballistic order? Did they get their act together and send you a quality cover? Or was it slag filled and poorly crafted like the others?
Hey Rocco,
I ended up getting the redesigned one from what I understand, All in all it looks good there's 2 small pinholes in 2 different welds but that's all that I noticed and I doubt like hell that'll do anything..
