I have driven one Jeep with the BFG's. It was a lifted jeep and they drove alright considering how aggressive of an AT they are. Definitely not as road worthy as my rugged terrains but the rugged terrains IMO aren't nearly as rounded in every category. Speaking of the Nitto terra grapplers, the mana...

Not on the rug, I appreciate your comment. Sometimes getting people to comment in this forum is like pulling teeth. A lot of looking but no touching.... :D I have read good things about the TOYO's. However, I quickly deviated away from them as my local Discount Tire doesn't sell the toyo brand. (I n...

I have a v8 model as well. I have always run premium. I discussed this with my friend (Nissan master tech) and as I understand it you can run 87 octane without any hiccups or knocking but you will notice a decrease in power. The ECU will adjust after a couple hundred miles and you will be all set. I...

Nissan doesn't even have a service interval for diff oil replacement on the R51's. They might not have a specified mileage for it to be changed in the manual, but i was told by Nissan its recommend to be changed every 60k under normal driving conditions? Define "Nissan." By Nissan are we ...

I'm not sure either. That's why I took the gamble, because I believed them to be the same. I guess sometimes we are more knowledgable then the people at the dealerships. :? Nevertheless, I am happy and wanted to make this aware to people searching in the future.
