I'd never heard of them, but I like the price! I wonder how much it would be to get one in the US? Looking forward to hearing what others have to say.

It might just be mine, but the auto tranny's in these things don't seem to be the smartest as to deciding what gear to be in when you floor it. Mine waits a second then shifts down, revs go extremely high, and sometimes it gives me a real hard time about shifting back into OD, especially if I'm going on a slight incline when I stop accelerating.

Make sure to check clearance when flexing if you like to go offroading. The rear end flexes quite a lot, it's likely you'll have lots of rubbing.

As Slartibartfast said, the quality is usually slower at first because it isn't rendered fully yet. Now that it's been uploaded for a while it should be good.

Sounds like an epic weekend trip! Too bad so much stuff was closed. So you keep your spare in the trunk?

Is that your friend in the last picture? He looks pretty upset.

Looks like it's been taken care of! I like the red. Nice to see no body rust, especially in a snowy state like Colorado.

If you can't tell that something is wrong with them, they're probably fine. The occasional thump could just be nothing, or maybe a sway bar link? But that would be more of a clunk (getting into describing noises with words, oh boy). I've never had my trailing arm bushings wear out, but from what I gather it's fairly obvious when they do. I wouldn't worry about it, unless the dealership is willing to elaborate or show you how they know they 'need' to be replaced.

Thanks guys, I'll keep that in mind for the future. Wasted a good bit of money for no reason I guess. Oh well, what's that old saying, live and learn?

Well that would have been nice to know! I assumed because they had 140K miles on them it wasn't unreasonable for them to be shot. Do you do that just by tightening the retaining ring (probably with new grease too)?

Well in my case I asked them to do the alignment anyways, since I didn't see it being possible to change them anytime soon and my alignment was totally whack from installing new struts and OME coils.

I also suggest taking care of the lenses you've got first. Cheapest option. ChrisFix did an awesome video on it, which I'll link at the end. Mine are extremely bright though, were HID's unique to the Infiniti model?

Might be able to get the alignment better now that you have a new wheel bearing. I had an alignment done once and they said they couldn't get it perfect due to the slop in the bearings. New set of bearings and another alignment and they got it perfect.

Took some more pictures. I think these turned out better.

Old Man Emu front coils are great. KYB struts are awesome too. I've heard bad things about the other strut components (other than the strut itself) by KYB, so I'd look into other options. Mine rides super great with OME coils and KYB struts, it would be a great combo to match your rear end.

Awesome, looks like I'll have to pick up Lightroom then. Excited to get back into it! Sorry for threadjacking for a little bit!

Happy Halloween!

Thank you! I actually got started in photography with an all-manual Minolta film camera my dad gave me, then the Nikon D50 I have now, but the last few years I haven't done very much (just tonight I went through the last pics I took with it; Hot Rod Drag Week 2016). In the past I've stored pictures on my dad's Lightroom and I loved how simple it was. For now I'm just using folders in Google Drive to store them but I'll have to figure something out.

Do you do any editing on them? If so, what do you use? I'd like to use my camera more but I'm not really sure where to do once I have pictures.

Those are all truly stunning, wish I took more time to photograph my rig. What camera equipment do you use?

That's a good point. I've never had one in my hand so I wouldn't have even considered that.

Working on cleaning up the surface rust and painting the front right wheel well. Right side is going to be looking real good. Only have one spot that needs to be patched in this wheel well, but it's right behind the strut.

There was a discussion about this on the Facebook page the other day. Seems like lots of people like Moog, which is probably what I'll go with if mine ever need doing. Cuong Nguyen is probably right though, stock parts from the junkyard would probably be fine, unless the ball joint or bushings are worn out. Is OEM absurdly well priced? I'm guessing OEM is probably pretty expensive, so I'd avoid it for that reason alone; this isn't one of those cases where you need OEM.

Heavy means tough. Can't wait to see pics of it installed!

I don't know a lot about Frontiers, but I'd say it's a good deal as long as it's relatively clean.
