X-traingler 2014 pro-4x

[Raingler]

2014 pro-4x Bichen' Blue Beast

Here is the R&D rig we will be using to get out, wheel,. meet some of you guys at events around the country in. Our first Xterra in building parts for the Xterra since about 2002, bout time huh?

First installed, what else? Raingler My Ride!
then in went, Powertank, recovery gear, and some secret Raingler stuff hopefully can share soon!
Cobra 75WX ready to wire and put in now.

The plan
1. Nisstec w/ Radflo and BL. Ironing out details, likely a 2.5+2"BL
2. Hefty full skids, 2" BL style sliders w/steps and front winch bumper
3 Warn XD9000 all the factor55 goodies
4. Tires, Undecided
5. Tuner Bullydog and Volant intake
That ought to be a good start, we'll figure out the rest after some trail time!
stay tuned and check us out in Moab in May.

Have you been talking with Danny at Xterraperfomance.com? He can get you hooked up on anything you need.

Wow, I have apparently missed out on the new Pro-4Xs. Is that what the stock wheels look like? I like them!

He was one of the first, great guy awesome to work with.

Yes, I did them too, gotta research some tires to keep these wheels I think.
Nice build there!

 

[obi_krash]

That color . . . love it.

Excited to see what the "secret Raingler stuff " will be!

 

[Roadwarrior]

I know that you said interco's but have you put thought into the Kenda Klever MT's? I have been running them for 6 months, and have put them through everything but sand, and have been overly impressed with them. They wear hard, are quiet (it is an MT.. so nothing is really quiet) and have kept up with BFG and Toyo tires. Luke (xterror04) runs the Toyo Open Country MT's and we were discussing how we both like the tires and how they surprised us after their performance.

 

[Raingler]

I will check them out, sounds like a nice balance.

Dialed about in, most the parts are in or in build.
Here's the plan right now:
Nisstec extended travel ultimate 2.0
Radflos extended shocks front and rear
2" BL
650 front rate with TOP1
Adj shackles in back
Hefty front bumper/full hoop (body matching paint)
Warn XD9000 (have this already)
2" lifted sliders w/plate
Full skid set under, radiator, BL spacer etc.
33-34" 9.5-11.5 wide tire on stock PRO-4X wheels
Won't miss it blinding blue Beast. Anything we've missed for round 1?

 

[Roadwarrior]

Make those sliders White Knuckle and what about a rear bumper w/ tire carrier?

What are you doing about lighting?

[rolling rock]

Sounds like a great build! I need your funds. lol.

 

[Raingler]

Lol, it's a rolling display piece!

Lighting, sure give me something to research! Thanks

 

[Roadwarrior]

Right now the main market is going to be LED. Xterraperfomance.com had a sweet line in Ironman leds but due to some issues that isn't anymore. That being said, I'm sure with a little research and a forum poll/discussion, you'll find exactly what you need.

Little update and a chance to check out clearances for tires etc on the X today.
More to come soon on equipment and install etc. We have got to meet some really great people so far in our venture into this build up.

Our upper barrier and small ceiling net did a superb job as well

Back to work, new site coming soon, build up page and more stuff to come.

It appears we have much catching up to do! I already feel like this is one of those mad scramble build-up TV shows here, hurry up. It got a Moab deadline!

 

[Xterra Performance]

Looking good Guys. Super happy I could be a part of this build! Its going to be great to meet up and wheel with you in Moab this year!!! Cant wait to see the truck all decked out! we will definatly have to take some Glamour shots together!!

 

[metzican]

we will definatly have to take some Glamour shots together!!

When I googled Glamour Shots this is what I got. You might want to choice your words more carefully.

Raingler no matter how far along your rig is I'm sure you will have a great time.

 

[Raingler]

Lemmy is the man. If only to be so kewl. Lol

 

[Raingler]

projected ETA? Expected Price?

 

[Raingler]

probably early summer but we'll do a feeler on XN and then release with prices etc, shouldn't be too bad though in budget.

 

[dhyde79]

I'll definitely be keeping an eye open for that....definitely would want one for the 40 side of the 60/40 back seat....after all, that's where the car seat goes, so that seat's always up....
