Gauging Interest for Nissan Frontier 4-Leaf Mini-Pack / Add-a-Leafs

Nissan Xterra add-a-leaf mini pack (4-leaf)

Just a few months ago, We released the 4-Leaf Add-a-leaf packs for the 2005+ Nissan Xterra. These add-a-leaf packs are a great alternative to other add-a-leafs on the market due to using more material. It’s simply a longer lasting solution with 4 leafs and gives 2.5″ of lift height. It’s also much more cost effective than complete new leaf packs.

Since the release for the Xterras, we have gotten a handful of enquiries asking about a similar solution for the 2005+ Frontiers (D40). These enquiries have come in all forms of social media and has not been easy to keep track of. If you are interested in knowing the progress of this product and want to get notified when they are released, please submit your e-mail address in the form below (don’t forget to click the link in the verification email). I should also mention that those that submit their e-mail below will also get notified about introductory pricing which should be about $240 for the pair. The price will then go up to about $280.
The future of this product will be based upon the number of people we have sign up over the next few weeks, and everyone that submits their e-mail will be notified of what we decide to do.  If we decide to move forward then it will be about another 8 – 10 weeks for production.

Please share this post with your friends to help bring a new suspension solution to frontier owners.

Heavy Duty 300M / 4340 Choromoly CV Shafts for Nissan Xterra / Frontier R180 Font Differential by RCV

Nissan R180 CV Axle Shafts

We’ve heard the stories on the message boards and we’ve seen it at various Nissan events like GONE Moab. The ’05+ Xterra / Frontier OEM Front R180 CV axle shafts just aren’t holding up, which is why we’ve been seeking out a better option and contacted RCV Performance who makes 300m CV Joints and 4340 Axle Shafts.

The RCV outter cv joints are made of 300M and have a maximum safe operating angle of 43 – 45 degrees.  degrees. while the inner 300M CV typically see’s a nice increase in operating angle over stock as well. (no definite angles at the moment for the nissans) The shafts are made of 4340 Chromoly all of which is made here in the U.S. The CV’s are also rebuild-able and easy to maintain with a zerk fitting on the end of the shaft. The expected price is $1995.00 for the pair. and comes with a “No Questions Asked” limited lifetime warranty.

A sample shaft will be to RCV late next week and from there R&D will begin immediately (around Sept. 9th. ) and a production batch could be ready as soon as late October.

I’d like to see at least 7 people with immediate interest in these shafts to help keep things on this timeline. RCV really tries to produce at least 10 sets at a time. things start to get way too expensive if we run any less.

Please comment below if you are interested and if you  would be looking to buy within the next 3 months, 6 months, 1 year or more than 1 year.

Thank you for your interest and feedback.

Nissan Xterra / Frontier (’05+) C200K Rear ARB Locker on the Way!

About 3 years ago, I went on a mission working with ARB on comparing the C200 axle of the old Nissan days to the newer C200K found in some of the Nissan Xterra and Frontier 2005+ trucks. There seemed to be a huge demand for locking up the rear axles on the 05+ Nissan Xterras and Frontiers. All the leg work, pulling trucks apart, locating old 200k axles in junk yards, measuring parts, reassembling, shipping parts back and fourth between ARB and myself … it’s all paying off. The first batch of ARB C200K lockers were assembled in Australia last week! There are only 4 that will be immediately available that are being shipped in via air freight. The next shipment is due in, in about 8 weeks.
To be one of the first people to lock your C200K axle with an ARB locker in the United States, you can order your locker here: Nissan Xterra / Frontier C200k (05+) Rear Axle Locker
