They are soo cheap too. Probably one of the cheapest body on frames with real 4x4 you can buy. Everyone rushes to Toyota but they are so expensive used. And honda is being a bitch and not making a real truck.
Kevin has some KING KONG COJONES! Love both trucks, but you can't beat that PRO4X. I have a Lava Red PRO4X myself and will NEVER get rid of it! I've gone all Off Road Kevin on mine too and ALWAYS gets me out! Thank for the videos!
Wow, I think this is my favorite video yet! Y’all both did some pretty ruff stuff and had fun doing it. Please keep up the awesome videos! Can’t wait to see you channel grow to 100k! I believe it’s coming!
That last shot was epic bro! Lol. Glad I can see how my S trim can do when pushed a little and it did pretty damn good. Kevin’s pro 4x did amazing! Can’t get much better than that. These are the videos that make me wish I had a locker lol
Nice video. Thanks. Glad to see people enjoying their frontiers. Lockers make all of the difference off-road. Can you do a video break down on your truck? Parts, etc...
Here's one I did a little while ago. 90% of it is still the same. Tha ks for watching buddy! th-cam.com/video/4Qo6KU0gcbU/w-d-xo.htmlsi=oqE-TyyfU9OsryJ-
A great video! Frontiers are GREAT trucks! When people told me to get a higher lift and bigger tires on my jeep - I bought a locker which is stock on my PRO4X!
Great videos. Shows the true difference a locker makes. I have a 2023 Pro4x and so far it's been great. The only gripe is I wish the locker could be engaged in 2wd
@@andypacmanperez Most people that are experienced off-roaders prefer to use as little of the options as possible to make the obstacle with the least amount of help as possible to make it more fun/challenging. I always try everything in 2wd until I need additional help like locker or 4wd. So it would be nice to try in 2wd, then 2wd w/ locker, then 4wd no locker, then 4wd low, then 4wd low with rear locker, then 4wd low with both lockers. Hope this makes sense.
@@andypacmanperez Not everything requires low range. Some things require speed, some things require juuuuust a bit more traction... Snowy roads for example. Sometimes you've got 1 tire just spiiiining away and the ability to lock up for just a little bit helps enormously. Can be the difference between just a little throttle (locked) versus foot to the floor (which is how you break stuff)
Just finished watching your review of the 6 inch RC lift. Quick question: would it be possible to add those spacers you had on before + a body lift to get a similar look to the 6 inch lift? Id rather NOT cut the frame of my truck but I DO want the visual look (I do not plan on going off roading). Do you think this would be possible or maybe even a similar look? I love how your frontier looks lifted but if I can achieve the same look with spacers + body lift I'd rather go that route.
U need to disconnect the front sway bar if a wheel is in the air it can't give u traction,a sas would be best,but a LOT of money, I'm doing a T-swap and I'll see what can be done with the sway bay, nice video I enjoyed it
When u start spinning on those flexy spots and start 2 wheelin. Don’t let out. Keep a constant rpm around 2k or maybe a tad bit more and Nissans ABLS system will kick in and mimick a locker. Works great!
@@4wdAdventurzfor sure man! The Nissan ABLS system works awesome. Sometimes takes a second to kick in. Definitely do some research on forums to understand it more. My T swapped X has a locker but if I’m lazy and don’t wanna turn it on the ABLS almost does just as good.
As someone who had an 87 YJ Jeep Wrangler with dual detroit lockers, I can say with certainty that the lockers and the short distance between rear wheels and the bumper make a big difference with Jeeps not getting hung up in those situations. Also, momentum is your friend a lot of times.
I have a 3rd gen i love it and im makeing sure she is getting mud on her. I also owned a 2nd gen. Though both are very reliable and capable something about the 2nd gen feels like it was just made to be a off road vehicle.
The lifted truck might actually hit more tilt... If the spring rate on the lifted truck is The same spring rate or more as the other truck... Then it is definitely going to tilt more.... That's the math of it all... And the reason for that is the jacking forces are greater if you have a lift on Independent suspension. You would have to widen the track or reduce the spring rate or both for that not to be the case.
Awesome video to show some capability. It let me know I will only be lifting enough to get aggressive 33s without rub lol. Feel like the 35s and left made some stuff harder for you or atleast scarier 😅
Good wheeling. Just go to junk yard and drop in an M205 e locker for the rear and you’ll be spot on. I dropped mine in couple months ago and sold my old C200k axle with mechanical locker.
Sweet! I have this truck. I’d recommend Starting with a 2.5 inch leveling kit and 285/75/r16 or 285/70r17 depending on your wheel size. Both 33 inch tires. This is a low cost and highly effective place to start. It will allow you to do most trails.
Surprised your ABLS wasn't engaging at all. My 2014 Frontier ABLS is "almost" like having a locker. (ABLS is nissan speak for offroad traction control)
I think I might have been letting off the throttle too soon for it to kick in. I’m going back out tomorrow for another try. Illl be more mindful of it this time. We’ll see…
@@Blue-moon12 thanks for watching buddy! I appreciate it. I also didn't get the Pro4x cause it's a bit too nice for what I planned on doing with the truck. Other than the locker it didn't offer any other benefits that I wanted. Chose to save the money and put it into a lift and tires.
Of course the Pro 4 x would win. I have a 2022 SV and im amazed at this. I would never put my truck through this as I don't off road. Gives a lot confidence knowing if I go camping I will not have any problems.
I like your hoodie you had on, do you have a loyal subscriber and Christmas discount? You have been doing great on this TH-camr stuff. Flying drones, setting up cameras, and doing stuff that seems sketchy has made this video great. Please keep you friend on the channel, his truck is awesome too. BTW I really like this new video series, it keeps me entertained.
Nice Rigs probably safe all the way to 40*. I got over confidant in my yota and put it on ots side. Know your limits and trusting physics. I still havent pushed my Xterra.
Nice video! Since your truck is higher and due to the engine weight pushes the truck towards the ground more intense. You can confirm that tracking the approaching angle. Mid size trucks when elevated really influences the weight distribution and move or cause to move into a sloping position.
Well, that definitely would’ve made a difference and you probably would’ve made it through those harder lines. That Frontier is definitely more capable.
@@4wdAdventurz that’s awesome brother! You will definitely enjoy it. Looking forward to seeing you gain experience. Next time, drop to 18-20psi and notice the difference. Thanks for sharing. 👍🏼
Well you really didn’t go head to head with Kevin!! Hang with kevien he’s a good driver - title should have read - I go out with kevien as he teaches me how to drive lol
Cool. Check out The Adventure Crusader channel. He's my buddy. We do a bunch of trails. We have Monteros. We have a few buddies with the Xterras as well.
Those were some sketchy angles and I would lose my nerve attempting. That black Pro4X is a tank. Great video.

A great video! Frontiers are GREAT trucks! When people told me to get a higher lift and bigger tires on my jeep - I bought a locker which is stock on my PRO4X!
Now you know that 25 degrees off camber is the max limit of your pucker factor parameter. That’s good for you to know.
For real! 😂 valuable information!
I have a 2019 frontier pro4x just like Kevin's truck. I had no idea what it was capable of with a little lift and 33s. That's some impressive driving.
Those 2nd gen Frontiers have a nice deep exhaust sound you don't get from any other midsize truck with less than 4 liters
I forget what exhaust the pro4x had but it definitely sounded good for a v6!
@@4wdAdventurz they sound great even stock
It's not the truck, it's the driver. Experience pays off...
I drive an FJ Cruiser but I love the look of the new Frontier. I drove a rental Frontier for two weeks and loved it.

Those frontier did really good out there !!! 💪💪💪
A real Pro4X 4X4 test drive. Thanks guys
Best Frontier comparison video on TH-cam.

I wish the first gen had more of an aftermarket. I’d definitely get one for the channel
Way impressed with the black truck’s capabilities. I had no idea.
Man I took my pro 4x out today and got butthole pucker at 17 degrees can’t imagine it feels in the 20’s let alone 40 😂
For real! Hahaha. I can’t handle that feeling! 😂😂😂
It takes some getting use to the urge to steer out of it is the hardest
😂😂😂😂
Awesome trucks!! I cant wait to take my 23 Titan pro-4x off road!! Im putting a few mods on it first tho
Have fun buddy!
Nice video bro. How are guys getting traction on that wet clay. I would thought it would have been sliding all over. 😂
Yeah the clay was a little slick in some spots but not to bad. After a good rain, it can be a shit show 😂

When it comes to leaning that's where all the height has you at a disadvantage.
And there isn’t much flex in the suspension so it’s all body roll lol

I was out in Citrus yesterday. Made it over to trail 19 for the first time. Was a bit uncomfortable LOL.
What vehicle do you have?
How good is the Auto locking Differential on the New Frontier Pro-4X over a traditional locking Differential?
The new ones have auto locking rear ends? I didn’t know that..
Those Nissan V-6’s sound good
I like the looks of the new gen frontier but it looks like the raised hood limits the sightline alot compared to the old gen.
definitely. On these more technical trails I can’t see shit 90% of the time. Lol
Awesome video to show some capability. It let me know I will only be lifting enough to get aggressive 33s without rub lol. Feel like the 35s and left made some stuff harder for you or atleast scarier 😅

@4wdAdventurz Makes sense. I bought it because I live rurally and I like the look of it. Feels like a truck, no turbos etc.
Does this 2 gen have an automatic differential block? And yours? Does it have too?
2nd gen has a selectable rear locker. No locker on mine. All open diffs
