New Xterra Owner in Maine
Posted: Fri May 11, 2012 9:14 am
Hey guys,
I have been over on thenewx.org for just over a year now and have wanted to start a project that involves independent rear suspension. I figured, since pathy owners already have the IRS, that you guys know the ins and outs of modifying it.
A little more about me, I am a Firefighter/ EMT-I in Maine I have owned 2 Nissans the more recent of the two is the 08 Xterra. I love riding motorcycles and snowmobiles, I grew up in Vermont in the shadow of a ski area so I learned to snowboard at a young age. I have alot of plans for my toys and want to get everything I can out of this site and try to add anything I can.
