Sleepy -Its tough to give a solid review on JUST the DT headers because I did so much all at once. They did come with a gasket. As far as handling goes I am going to have to install spacers which I am currently waiting for to be custom cut to fit around the front hubs to alleviate some slight rubbing. The ride is great, though a bit stiffer with the bilsteins. The tires are as advertised, very aggressive treads but nice and quiet on the highway. I deleted most of my emissions garbage during this and installed a plug as well…..no emissions control here which is great.

How do you like your Frontier ? I am about to buy my wife a 2012 V8 Pathfinder 4x4 to replace her 09' XTerra 4x4 and I am on the fence about whether I am going to take the Xterra or sell it and get a Pro4x Frontier.

Love the NISMO whweels and KM2s. I didn't think the V8 Pathfinder was still available in 2012. If you buy a new Nissan, let me know ahead time. I'll get a VPP # for you. It gets you slightly under dealer invoice on vehicle price.
I love my NISMO Frontier (prior version of the PRO4X). If I bought a new truck, I would get a PRO4X Frontier and transfer all my mods over to it. I also like the PRO4X Xterra I just bought my wife.

Love the Frontier in the way it handles the road, ride is fairly quiet, and I think it is a good looking truck. Down side is the poor gas mileage, but you know that already with the Exterra.

Does Nissan still offer locking differential on front and back like they used to? I would like to find one if possible.

The PRO4X still has the e-locker in the rear. They never had a locking front diff.
If I remember correctly, the rear locker is made by Eaton, but I cannot seem to find confirmation right now.
ARB is making lockers for the Frontier axles. Looks like they have one for either of the rear axles.

Found this for the front diff on the 2nd gen Frontier, but have read too many horror stories about grenading diff housings on the 2nd gen front end.

Don't know that I would run one. The thing to do up front on the Frontier would be to swap in a Titan front diff and lock it, but not sure what axles are available to retain the Frontier front end. Mmany people are swapping the entire front suspension, but that pushes the wheels out beyond the fenders. Not my thing. It also limits you to OE tire sizes due to the tires getting into the fenders when turning.

Always liked your collection, just need your address and a plane ticket, will sneak a truck in

Ahhh, spring is in the air. Top came off the Pat this week and swapped out a bad fuel pump with a new one. This is def Patrol weather in Texas.

Is your roof rack quick removable to get the top off?
And LOVE the hanger pic with all 4 vehicles with the plane!

Dream Garage. Another picture for the calendar.

Thanks for the love guys. All you have to do to remove the top is remove the spare tire carrier and ladder and it slides right out the back. Not really much to it. I'm going to try to get a few more pictures of them all together that show the collection a little better Monday or Tuesday once the weekend rain passes.
