That is one pretty machine... Nice work.

Pics or it didn't happen!!

@Rick13, I'll definitely let you know when I get back out west. I'm still interested in doing the whole Kokopelli trail like you and some of the Co4Lo guys ran. (When I was out there ~2 yrs ago it was too hot to run solo...I'm a risk taker, but not stupid.) I still think we need a group to head out for the GoneMoab one of these years.

Ok Rick13, you and your rig just went from 'love' to 'hate' (In the "I'm jealous and hatin'" sense). I loved COpathy's rig with the sahara bumper!! It gives our rides that extra thing... I love how the truck is totally competent, stout looking, and can still get you to and from work. Absolutely gorgeous rig friend!!! What happened to the rest of COPathy's mods & parts? bad accident?

Awesome job!! Not only on the paint and body, but the fact that you took her out just days later. Gotta get some tint on those windows though...keep the dark theme going. Kudos!!

Taking a cue from theexbrit, I think you have to position the bracket with the single bolt hole for the plate, and use the double bolt holes for the two bolts in the left corner (as in your pic). It'll require removing/replacing the existing, but that would seem to fit and be in line with the holes in the bracket. I tried to edit your pic to show what I'm thinking. (Maybe??)

Very nice Capt.! I've got the same color and model (04 SE) so your choices give me a lot to look at. I'd vote fenders on, just because I like the subtle look, and love it when I catch guys doing doble takes or straining their neck once they realize that she's lifted and well suited for trails. I too would love to see a pic of the CVs. I've been debating SFD (which is committing the rig to a whole new world) or just gaining another 1" with fleury's front and rear spacers. But I anticipate that wreaking havoc on my CVs. As it goes, I'm probably going to have to buy a new strut as my driver side is just all out of sorts. It's always fun to watch these threads blow up when one guy's mods sit perfect and the rest of us are scrambling to keep up. Nicely done all around!

She looks real good! I've got the same color & body style, only an '04. So seeing yours is a nice reflection. Now post some with those 33" BFG's!!

I think we need a good showing of Pathys to remind the Xterra boys where their roots are from...

Have any of you ever gone or thought about meeting up at the Gathering Of Nissan Enthusiasts Moab event? (http://www.gonemoab.com/)? I drove cross country last year to take my Pathy to some of those beautiful runs in CO, UT, NV and got there the last day of this event. As you could expect, it was mostly Xterras, Frontys, and a few WD21s. I don't recall any R50/51's. It might be fun for us all to get together out there and have a strong NPORA showing... Besides the fun of running trails and slick rock, comparing rigs, and discussing mods, it would be a blast to actually get to see a lot of your rides up close n personal. (Side benefit might be getting permission from the wives to make additional mods in the year to come.) Just throwing the idea out....

Thanks for sharing the Broken Arrow vid. My wife and I were in Sedona ~6 years ago and took the Pink Jeep tour (that shows up at the first 5 seconds of video). It was in that same spot that I remember the guide going around and around a few times making everyone uncomfortable with the steep descent angle. I was loving it and cracking up! My wife kept grabbing my arm just like she does now in the Pathy. Great job seeraedave!!
