Just wondering who here has more than an idle fantasy of putting a solid front axle under an Xterra, say within the next 2 years? I'm shooting to be SFA in that window myself.

Now, for those of you that have made up their minds, would you go with the simple and inexpensive route with a domestic donor from a Jeep Wagoneer or the like, or would you prefer a more esoteric custom solution that would be 100% Nissan (made from Patrol components, nothing breakable is custom) at an as yet to be determined premium? I've got a solid idea for the latter that I'm researching and curious how many might go that route if it works out.

Just talking about the axle itself, the suspension and modifications to your Xterra are a separate consideration.
