OFFROAD ADDICT;

My '95 3.0 4x4 KC HB was a great 4x4 truck but I traded it in on my "99 Frontier,,, another great truck.

95kc4x4 

Shown with my '76 Wagoneer wheels and small 30x9.50 BFG ATs. Here we were testing traction on steep shale grades. 

Have a good one while you can still laugh about it.. Don S..

It would be nice if our members would add their vehicle information to their signature (similar to mine) plus add their City and State . A member in the same town might be willing to drop by and help you with a problem.

hi lakota, that model didnt come in crew cab in SA, but double cab. one of the most popular 4x4 vehicles in the country. It was replaced by the current hardbody , the one in the US is the frontier. Also very popular. Although upgrading eg, body lift, OME suspensions is expensive here we do do it, still want to post pics when i get a chance. Could you tell me a bit more about your avatar, because thats the badge they advertise with the jeeps over here. Thanks you have a great forum. Cheers  Ian

OFFROAD ADDICT;

 

I have a 'photo shop' program on a CD that came with a Canon printer.

I have photo shopped and resized thousands of pictures with it. Here is a reworked jeep avatar I use on a Full Size Jeep forum. I changed the wording and added bigger mountains...

1976 Wagoneer 406, MC4300, TH400, QT, TruTrac, 2" lift, 31x10.50s, duel Optimas, plumbed rear fuel can, aux ele fan, Class 3 hitch, etc. 
It’s taken us over 261 Colorado Mountain Passes, 3 Jeep Jamboree USAs & 2 Ouray Invasions since 1985

There was a time when some people got rich buy providing a better product at a lower price.

Now they get rich by ripping us off and paying off the politicians. Can you spell DEREGULATION

... Sorry but whoever claimed pre 1998 (model) Nissan pick-ups were Frontiers is one of those poor phoenix folks suffering from the continual 110 degree heat or one of those pesky know it all used car salesman… I have seen them HBs advertised that way!. But what the heck do I know… I’ve only owned seven Nissan vehicle since Feb.’84. Maybe a real expert with jump in a straighten us out.

Here is a shot in 1996 including a ’76 Datsun Pick-up (Pre-Runner ), a ’95 Quest and ’95 V-6 4x4 King Cab Hard Body.

Sorry i must have caused a problem on the forum, new commer and all , but i like the conflict some times. Do you get the Nissan Patrol in the US. This is very simalar to Toyota Landcruiser . In my humble opinion two to the top 4x4 quality vehicles around especially here in SA and Australia?   Cheers Ian
