A little walk around of the Xterra while in southern Colorado.
Here's a couple how to videos for this build that go into more depth
All mods: • Things I've Made: Xter...
Drawer system: • Part 1: Custom Nissan ...
Roof racks: • DIY Xterra Roof Racks....
The last half of the video is raw footage of the passes we did.
1. Imogene pass from Telluride to Ouray
2. Millie Creek upper trailhead water crossing 2 (the harder one) on the way down from Uncompaghre peak.
3. Medano Creek pass out of the Great Sand Dunes National Park

one of the nest things about the Xterra is the ability to sleep in the back.

I've got the same color, and camping out of it too! live in south Colorado, lets get together next time your here!

Nice to see another X on the trail! This modular build is perfect for leaving the interior stock while providing flexibility for different adventures. Thanks for the inspiration!

Love this! I was planning on buying a van to convert to a home. I have a 2006 Xterraand thought maybe that would work for now. I found this video that has truly inspired me to use what I have for the time Thank you!

@Down2Fly 3 года назад

Lol. Very welcome.

Great build! I was looking in the back of my Xterra and it looks like the back slopes down at about 5%. I watched your build videos and it looks like you matched the slope in the back. Any issues with the drawers shooting out when unlatched or anything you’d do different? Wondering if I should correct for the cargo area slope or just follow your build video. Thanks for a great inspiration!

@Down2Fly 3 года назад

That's a good observation that I didn't take into account when building. On a moderate decline, the drawers will slide out when not locked, but that's usually desirable. From a structural standpoint, it's very nice to match the slope to keep that back piece locked in. But if you were going to design to compensate for the decline, I do not recommend adding spacers below the build, but rather incorporate the 5% when cutting your sides.

@TheMatthewMadden 3 года назад

Would you ever do a video on the shower? Curious if and how it is pressurized. The drawer system one is great!

@Down2Fly 3 года назад

Yup. Added to the backlog. It's currently not pressurized. It was my intent in the beginning but I have enough pressure difference from it being on my roof that the flow is enough for me

@@Down2Fly oh awesome okay cool! Great work again man, very inspiring for what I want to do.

Hey Garrett I've recently acquired a 2005 Xterra. I live in Denver and wanted to know if you have a specific mechanic you like who specializes in Nissan cars? I have a couple of repairs to do and then I am going to build it out like yours.

@Down2Fly 2 года назад

I do not know of anybody in Denver... sorry. What repairs are you needing to do?

@everready19373 3 года назад

Did you air down for the sand?

@Down2Fly 3 года назад

yup. was at 25 psi. could have gone lower

@ciello___8307 3 года назад

Cool build! I imagine these don't have the ridiculous "toyota tax" that the 4runners have?

@Down2Fly 3 года назад

Generally speaking, they do not.

@butchgreene 25 дней назад

The tax comes after you buy and have to pay for a bunch of repairs you might not on a Yota. Buddy has a 06 Taco. Since new he’s got new spark plugs. Nothing else at 220k miles. My 05 X has easily $10k in repairs in that time

@everready19373 3 года назад

How many miles on your X?

@Down2Fly 3 года назад

Just passed 100k
