Is this FAQ going to contain questions that are solely lift/off-roading oriented?

I read the first sentence and a few topics that I've seen repeatedly asked came to mind like audio (speaker sizes, subwoofer options especially for CC guys, HU install), intake/exhaust/header options, various bulb types/numbers, wheels. Then read the rest and felt I needed to ask the question above to contribute some info.

Personally, I know nothing about lift, suspension, and tires for this truck so I would gain benefit from reading the FAQ.

well, as for speakers, a stock nissan comes with 2 door speakers that can be replaced with aftermarket 6.5 inchers with no problem, the only thing is tho is getting that pesky door panel off.. does anyone kno how? (a shop did my door speakers) that would be awsome advice to put in here.

o and for you extended cab owners, you can stick a single 12 box or a dual 12 box just about anywhere, i personally went with a 15, aka mega bass for a smaller sized truck. and if having trouble finding a place to put it, make a plateform so everything will be level, just measure the back space and cut it out on a square piece of plywood. then build supports based on how high you want the plateform to be, i did mine flush with the cup holder in back of the console. then if wanted, grab some carpet and some glue and stick the carpet on there, it makes it look like the floor is even and smooth but with a "from the factory look" (i got the same color carpet as the rest of the truck).

i got one more (cuz someone just asked this):

how to get to #6 plug.. aka pain

need 2 6" extensions, 3 pivots and a plug socket, pull the plug wire off, fish those 2 extensions down with all 3 pivots on them (i find it way easier to leave off the wrench till the socket is on the plug) then stick the wrench on and loosen away

idk if this should go on here, but when i first got the truck, that was a major thing i had a question about, not a very user friendly design :damn:

joshuatest, i was reading your old thread about the airbox mod and you said that for the fender resonator, you just removed the little plastic tube going between the box and the resonator, im just curious if i could just do that, i really dont think i could get my inner fender out, my trucks a little bit old, soooo rust is common and id prolly snap bolts

also, did you do like a filter over that hole?

read the first post...


mods, can we clean this up a bit, you got to filter through 6 pages of mostly convos

I believe they were simply called "Nissan Pickup".The Frontier wsa mostly a face lift, I think. They may have introduced the V6 back then. I do not think there was any major change in the truck from 1990 until Gen 2.

to answer that question the hardbody really is almost a completely different truck

the frames, suspension and body are all different

the only thing that stayed the same was the motor, the vg33e and the ka

just to prove that the frames are different, HBs use longer t-bars causing the torsion bar anchors to be farther back , if you look at frontiers frames, they start to slightly bow in near the t-bar member, where as the HB has that farther back and doesnt have the slight bow in

the rear suspension is pretty much the same, but the front uses a different designed LCA and a UCA with replaceable BJs (HB)... this is also why you cant use the trail master 4 inch drop bracket lift thats for the hardbodys on the frontier, the mountings different completely
