Bought my high mileage (290kkm) pathfinder this summer after needing a car because I was recovering from a motorcycle crash, which rendered my unable to daily said motorcycle.
Figured it would be a good daily and get me in the bush in the weekends. Always planned upgrading to something else like a 4runner. But fell in love with my ultra-reliable pathfinder and am building it up as a overland rig, hope to be done with everything in Mai 2021.
So far I have ordered 2inch AC lift front, LR heavy duty NRC9449 springs for the back. Additionally I ordered a rooftop tent + rolout canopy (will arive in Mai, hence the timeline I want my mods done). I also currently have 31inch off-road tires (rubbing) and a lithium battery pack with inverter (homade).
Mods planned in the coming 2months:
*Install lift (keep current OEM struts and current aftermarket shocks), potentially add 1 inch strutspacer in the front to level out truck (?)
*Buy roofrack + instal rooftoptent/canopy
*Additional ledlights
*New brakes front and back
*1.5 inch wheel spacers for look and tire rubbing
*Manual hubs
*steel frontbumper from coastaloffroad - with winch
*steel backbumper with tire swing from coastaloffroad
*Potentially bigger tires (32? 33?)
**Yes, lots of new parts in an old pathfinder, sue me ^^
