Sheesh it' been a long time. Thankfully, the X still lives although family needs have been pulling me in a million directions over the past year.
So in the past year I've added a 2" body lift from Nisstec before heading to Texas to visit family for two weeks. That, combined with the 3" suspension lift made the X finally stand as tall as the trucks out there for once. I found some sliders on the cheap ($300) also so added those. Came within a 1/4" of drilling the gas tank on that instal... Mileage was the usual sadly with that 15 mpg max combined with June prices at around $5/gallon but I haven't seen my niece's/nephew in a couple years and was worth it.
I've repainted my front bumper and some pricey LED GTR Ultra Series 2.0 headlight bulbs, who knows how much else. It's been a weird year honestly, At some point I'll go through and figure out my build thread. Regardless, the x has rolled over to 203k miles and still runs strong. My only complaint is that in west Texas in mid summer, the AC could not keep up. With intake temps around 170 degrees I can't blame it but with two dogs and a gf in the truck I would have loved better haha. Probably should have removed the lightbar, I installed the 4x4parts radiator drop brackets and I swear that made the problem worse overall. Anyway, i'm happy to still be an X owner and carry the brand onward.
