Hi y'all!
I just bought a 2012 Xterra RWD this past Saturday. I am already loving it so much haha. I wanted to see what you would recommend for me to start of with simple budget mods.
I went to 4 wheels parts and asked about making my RWD more off road capable. I asked if I should install a rear locker and a winch...one of their guys said it probably would not make that much of a difference for my Xterra...that hurt!
Since it is also my daily commuter, I was told it would not be recommended to install a mechanical rear locker, because it would affect my driving. My options are electrical or air lockers, and I would have to purchase everything else for the locker to work. And if I added a winch and all the labor for both rear locker and winch would be 6K...not happening!!
Should I go 2 inch lift, and LSD instead?
Thanks.
