Brush Gaurds

How much do brush guards typically run for Xterra's???? And where can I get some? Peace

Question, Are you going to be Offroading with it?

$450 it seems, and they must be easy to find because I see Xterras all over the place with that crappy piece of metal attached to the front.

Do a search for "brush guard damage" and see why you shouldn't buy one.

Was going to tell him not to get one since they really don't protect your X from damage by vehicles snd Deer.

Shopping carts and crappy-parallel-parkers is all they're going to ward off.

I don't know have you seen some of those shopping carts now days

Haha Thomasm. He will be off-roading. He has a 1994 Izusu Trooper, and hes going for something that will be a better base for off-roading. You guys got any good links or anything? Or would Stillen have something (I buy all of my 300ZX parts from them) Peace

Tell him to get something that works then like an ARB or Calmini Bull bar.

Ok gotcha. Thanks a lot man. What other mods would you suggest for going off-road with? Thanks, peace

I would suggest searching the forums as that topic has been covered more than once. Start in the Outside Mods section.

Chuckles as Schludwiller mention an ARB or Calmini will work better just have him do a search on google or better yet check out the Izusu section of the forums

Zoso · #12 03-10-2004, 05:50 PM

Nonono, he sold the Izusu, he was going for a better base for off-roading... So he bought a 2001 Xterra. Just in case there was some confusion there. Peace

Thomasm · #13 03-10-2004, 05:56 PM

My bad sorry man misread the post

Zoso · #14 03-10-2004, 06:13 PM

Its all good. Hey this is off-topic here. But what kind of lights should be use? (on roof rack, or front mounted?) Peace

Schludwiller · #15 03-10-2004, 11:00 PM

Lights mounted on a bullbar are easiest.

Roof mounted lights are more of a pain to mount and you can't use them legally on roads (at least where I live).

Hella lights are popular with stock bumper owners as their thin profile make it easy to mount without any mods besides a few drill holes.

IPF J01's are nice as they have both a driving and fog light included in the same light. I really like my IPF SuperRally lights as well.
