Thanks Ian.

Very well explained. If you are going to abuse your Xterra (and I do) with offroading, it only makes sense to maintain highly stressed components.

I do not feel screwed by Calmini. Changing out the bushings is not hard people. If doing this in your driveway is difficult, then the risks in offroading should keep you away, far away! Things will break when taken to their limits. The Xterra is an awesome offroading vehicle. On almost every single trailrun I have been on we always pass a broken Jeep. Its part of the game and the Xterra is a winner!
