I do most of my riding in the Rocky's too (just north of the border).

As requested, politics aside. I'm new to Expo portal so this is my first time ready/replying to a gun thread. Even though I don't carry I went in to this open minded and decided to stay unarmed. ...
I'm in the process of fixing my shock mounts too. I mangaed to bend mine the first week I wheeled it: don't I feel like a Gomer.
As soon as I bent my mounts I looked at them and thought: "it...
I live in a condo so I don't have the luxury of rinsing off the bike. I usually wipe off the mud before taking it inside (more for the sake of the condo). Once inside I focus on a good drivetrain...
The snorkle looks great! I miss the one on my old truck. It seems the snorkle is the one thing you can do to your truck that makes it clear to people you actually off road and aren't just a poser. ...
$$$$ was the biggest reason. The build quility of any Toyo is almost impossible to beat. It isn't uncommon to hear people talk about them not needing balance weight. Toyo's also wear incredibly...
I ran the Toyo Open County AT's for two years on my Nissan Frontier. I just took them off.
The Good:
The tires wear amazingly well. I have a friend that has gotten 80,000 km out of a set on his...
Good meetin you too', Moab was a blast. I've gone a little crazy since then... Tonight I lengthened all my ABS and E-locker lines. As soon as I get the shock mounts figured you I'll get some pics...
Mr. T's Frontier will look even better next year with the RTT on that truck going up the same obstacle.

Those mounts look great! I have a ton of 3/16" material left over from my skid plates, however that looks 1/4". Hmmm, maybe I shoudl go 1/4".
At $20 for the pair plus shipping I think I'm just...
I did a bad thing, I did a ghetto $34 lift using Jeep parts. It worked perfect! Here is why and how I did it.
My Frontier has a Old Man Emu lift. 1.5" up front (heavy springs) and 2" rear...
The hood squeak is a common on for sure, the other problem is the sway bar. The sway bar bushings sit at the front of the truck and pick up allot of road grime. Try lubing those front bushings...
A buddy of mine use to carry a spare axle shaft with him (he had a Ford). If he was ever too stuck he said he'd pound it into the ground to pull himself out. I never witnessed the procedure. I'm...
Can you tell me more about the beer?
Since you have all of this gear I would also consider adding a tree strap to your kit. Depending on where you are there is often a tree near by and it is...
I ran Toyo AT's on my 07 frontier for two years. I did a lot of fire road with the truck and never aired down. I did however air down for anything more agressive than fire road. For me I was...
I went with the Cobra 75wx. The controls are located in the hand held mic so there isn't really a "head unit" to mount in the cab. I located the antenna connector under the console and ran the...
I ran one of those figerglass jobbies on my JDM Pajero for a year (I then sold the truck). After having it on for a year a didn't have any issues with it. It never leaked, cracked or broke. I even...
Looks great! As a Frontier owner I have bolt pattern envy.
Why did you choose the Titan?
Thanks Mike. If I have a chance to jack the front up in the next couple days I'll snap a photo of that. I'm assuming the upper control arm may hit on the spring bucket as a result of the spacer? I...
Since I already have a heavier spring rated for the weight I have a feeling that it is just a matter of the OME lift only being 1.5 inches. Without the bumper it looked like a 2" to 3" lift. I...
The OME springs are the upgraded springs designed to take the weight of their bumper and a small winch. The are set for an added weight of 90-175 lbs. I'm a little disapointed with how low it is,...
I've been checking out everyone's build threads. They all look great. Lots of greeat ideas!
Last month I did my OME suspension with the heavy Springs up front and the medium springs in the rear....
I own a Devenci Frantic DH bike. My buddy rides a Hectic. I know nothing about road bike geometry and I don't konw how much of there manufacturing crosses over from road to mountian but...
I am...
If you have a limited amount of time skip down to the end... I do have a questions... Otherwise here is the life storey of my '09 Frontier and wheel shopping.
I've re-visted my project list for...
I'm holding off on the pic's until I get the bumpers on it.
I'm a big fan of the OME lift. It went together easy and there was no messing around, everything I needed was included (I hate getting...
