Hi everyone I just purchased an 08 Xterra with 50k miles from original owner, I went from a 03 Jeep Cherokee which I destroyed

anyways I'm looking to meet up people with Xterras and maybe get together to do some off road trips or just go for a ride on trails. Again I'm new with the Xterra so I'm going be having many dumb or smart questions I think. Oh I live in NY on the Hudson Valley area.

Welcome from MA

With all 2nd gen Xterras there a big cost difference between 2in and 3in suspension lift, because of the level of involvement with more parts.

If you're not going to go too crazy, Id stay close to 2inches of lift, and spend the rest on skids, sliders, front and rear recovery points.

Upgrading to 33s is always a good call and can be installed stock without lift, google melt mod.

Keep an eye up on the boards or Craigslist OEM Xterra/Frontier rims are always for sale.
