    What year is your truck? Did you get the right pathfinder console?

    I have a 2012 Pro 4X. I'm trying to figure out the right year model pathfinder to get the carbon fiber console and install in my truck, mostly for air vents for the twins and the higher arm rest.

    Hey man, looked through your build thread but most pictures wont display for some reason. Your sig looks like you did a good mesh grill job. Got any pics or a write up? I followed one on here but the mesh im using is too thick to clip the grill back together all the way.

    believe the gas tank skid bolts are screwed into weld nuts on the inside of the frame.

    Hey Mhannis sorry to bother you but I have a question. Is the frame tapped where the bolts go to hold the gas tank skid plate on? Or are there nuts on the other side? Thanks for any insight you can help me with.

    2010SE no its not a perfect match, its as close as i could get using spraypaint that isnt quite paint coded matched. its also got a real nice flake to it like my paint does, so when the sun hits it its really nice.

    recently de-chromed a license plate bracket trim and painted it the same color. on the front bumper with as displaced away from the truck's painted plastics, you cant hardly tell its not the same color, until youre right up on it.

    thatd be great! i told sales not to install my bracket because i wanted to test fit some other options for a cleaner look, but ohio does require front plate so i didnt want to go too long without.

    i dont think i'll offset it though cuz that would look odd, unlike the f150 bumper that has it molded. so dropping it centered like yours would be perfect. hopefully i can successfully duplicate.

    Yeah. I flipped it upside down, then trimmed it to fit without a gap. I didn't like the big gap left behind the plate when you just flip it over. I can grab you some pics this afternoon!

    Thanks for the reply to my post on the 2012 Front lifting of my Frontier. I think we pretty much see it the same way, just use the HD spring with it...

    All I need is the springs and ride ADJ shocks and that will work with the rest of what is on the truck now? Want to make sure I am not missing additional parts.

    Kindly,

    Dave

    kit comes with aforementioned drop brackets, new extended (taller) spindles, extended front brake lines, front skid plate, strut spacer (front), these braces, for lack of a better term, that go from the rear of the db to the transmission crossmember, 2" lift blocks and 2" extended shackle for the rear. it leaves a little to be desired performance wise. if you got the coin, id suggest the prg db radflo coilover and at the least an add a leaf setup to rid of the lift block. the lift block exsaserbates (sp) wheelhop. its a decent setup. dont let the naysayers downplay it. offroading is mostly about skill overtaking obstacles. there is also a fabtech kit that is 6" lift, but the difference is negligible. and rumor has it titan lift kits will fit too, but i dont know. ive wheeled many times and it does its purpose which is raising the framerails higher off the ground. again, it leaves alot to the imagine performance wise.

    DB stands for drop bracket. the calmini kit comes with what basically amounts to new lower frame sections for the front. it relocates the lower control arms, front diff. and steering rack.
    i have no body lift as i dont believe in them. i plan to go to some coilovers and at least aal's when money and the ball and chain allow it. or maybe s.a.s. and 3/4 or 1 ton axles. id also like to swap in the rumored cummins fourbanger that the titan is supposed to be getting in the near future
