Hey all,
Openned up the latest edition of 4wd and sport utility magazine today and found a letter to the editor from Micah regarding their 06 Xterra Build-up called "Project X-Blade". Looks like there will be some interesting upgrades.

I just wanted to drop you a quick note to give you a thumbs up on choosing the Xterra as your next project vehicle. As a Nissan Xterra owner who takes his truck off road on a regular basis, I think it is great to see the vehicle get some exposure in a magazine like yours. I look forward to seeing what direction you take it in. Thanks Again

Micah, thanks for the feedback on Project X-blade. We're looking forward to exploring some of the different upgrade options available for the Nissan Xterra and will likely even get into some custom fabrication as we tailor the X-blade project to fit our needs and desires. Another step we'll take during the procession of this buildup will be to get out and actually use it as a 4WD rig on our local trailer for single- to multiple-day adventures. Feature Editor Jordan May is at the helm of Project X-Blade and has quite a few ideas for its construction, including engine performance, suspension lift, gear, and axle upgrades, bumpers, and skidplates, and a good deal of recovery gear, navigation equipment and gear storage. You can look forward to reading many articles on the new Project X-Blade in upcoming issues, and also check out www.4wdandsuportutility.com for extended coverage of this buildup.
