i tried searching. i was unsuccessful in finding what i need.
i believe there was someone on this board that did a very specific write up on his frontier. if i remember correctly, it was a 98-00 frontier, dark in color. im not sure if it was desert rat or not.
i will be doing a 4x4 conversion and any links to writeups would be very much appreciated. thanks, mike

This it?

Here is Sandbag's SAS thread, but it was the start of 2x4 to 4x4 project

thanks guys, but those aren't it. i think it was a link in his signature if i remember correctly. anyhow, it went to his own web page and he pretty much had the conversion step by step with a ton of pictures. he had his truck up on a hoist and alot of pictures from underneath his truck.

I dont know why, but I posted a how-to on a SAS. You're converting to just 4x4. Oops. Anyways, SandBag should be able to offer some advice on that type of project. He did the same thing a few years ago.

EDIT: I found this also. This should help you a bit. It's written by OnlyOneDR. He turned his Desert Runner into 4x4.

Enter the site, click on Mods and then click on 4x4 Conversion.

OnlyOneDR is the guy you're probably thinking of.

not the writeup i was thinking of, but that is just as good! i appreciate the help!

That would be NissanNut (barry)
