drbandkgb "stan" build

[drbandkgb]

Well I just couldnt stay away... Sold the Heep at 2pm... Bought the Xterra @ 4pm
Got to love Craigslist
Bought my 2nd Xterra...


Here is "Stan" as in Stan Smith off of American Dad..
2000 Xterra Auto fully stock.. for a couple days anyways
Only issue with this is the 200K on the dash... Timing belt was changed at 110K
so it will need one soon...

Felt good driving it home

Do you still have your white rig?

 

[RonapRhys]

It looks to be in good shape overall, though. At 200K, that's roughly 20-22K/year on average (depending on when it was purchased) - though it's on the high side, I'd guess that means a decent amount of highway driving.

 

[drbandkgb]

Do you still have your white rig?

Sadly I do not It went to a new home in January

Yeah the guy I bought it from had been doing 60 miles a day in it...

 

[drbandkgb]

Today the build starts...

Every build needs a helper.. Here is mine..

Damn I ran out of primer...

So far day onehas been good Ive ordered parts for the 2" BL and Im off to see a buddy about some wheels and tires

 

[r50fj60]

Off to a good start...what are the plans? Any interior mods planned? Is it gwonna be a DD/weekendwarrior or a hXc offroad machine? Keepin an eye on it

 

[drbandkgb]

Ordered Soft 8s today and some 33" Goodyear Duratracs..

So the drimel comes out tomorrow I think Im going to chop the front plastic like what I did on the White Xterra... Still undecided

Also I dont know if ill add the rack back either

Thanks man... Be sure to show some love in the EP thread for the meet.. Seems like no one here cares..


Day 2...
More parts need to be cut off..

Should have the front about down by tonight even though I may have to pull it all off this weekend for the BL this weekend

 

[Goldfish]

Looking good so far. Welcome back.

 

[drbandkgb]

So the tires came in... Had to see what they were going to look like on the X..

Waiting on the Body lift.. This is why you need a BL for 33s

Been a slow couple of days waiting on more parts

 

[Co-opski]

cool to see you back in an Xterra. That says a lot about the truck. I like the way it is coming along. :smiley_drive:
