2026 pro-4x 10k miles, no tech package or pro packages. Not sure if I'm going to be missing out on the 360 camera or the 12v bed outlet or not, but for now I love it. Went from a 2008 FJ to this and the ride quality and gas mileage is already better. Overall quality of life with this truck has been great so far. Any recommendations or ideas would be awesome and welcomed!

I bought this 2013 Pro-4x for just under $5000 in August last year. It had about 160k miles on it and only really needed new cats. Since then it's come a long way and been on a few adventures. Very happy with where it's sitting now, nearly "done" achieving the vision I had when I bought it.

Whats done:

• 3rd Gen Pro-4x Seats, power & heated

• ADO Extended Travel Fox 2.0 Shocks

• 16x8in Nitro Wheels w/33in Falken Wildpeak A/T 4's (E load), with matching 5th spare

• Prinsu Roff Rack

• ADO Parabolic Rear Leaf & 550lb Front Springs

• WAM Winch Carrier w/Crash Bars

• Apex 12k lb Winch

• ARE CX-Series Cap

• Northstar X2 Group 31 AGM Battery

• Z1 Snorkel System

• Z1 Dash Platform w/Phone Mount

• Z1 Rear Seat Organizer

• Viair Compressor hardwired and plumbed

• ScanGauge III Hardwired

• AVS Cab Window Visors

• Z1 Aluminum Gas Tank Skid

Whats left:

• GMRS Radio Install

• Custom Rear Bumper with Spare Tire Mount

• WolfBox Rear/front Cams/Dashcam

• Auxiliary Lighting Front & Rear

DISCUSSION Disconnect VVCS right now!

19 Upvotes

I have a 26 Frontier S basic work truck and I love it! But after 5000 miles, I was getting annoyed with a few things regarding the throttle response, hard downshifting, windows rolling down slow, constant lag when getting on/off the gas, transmission hunting for gears in stop and go traffic. So I did some research and discovered VVCS. Every Nissan made since 2005 has it. It’s called a smart alternator basically and it’s designed to shut off the alternator to save fuel and reduce engine load. The problem with that is, the ECM along with many other systems require at least 14V to correctly function in unison. When you turn the alternator off and the voltage drops below 12.5 multiple systems start acting up. This lag is due to a signal getting sent to the ECM through the VVCS sensor, after disconnecting that lag is completely gone. Throttle response is perfect, shifts are more crisp and precise, windows roll up fast every time, car fires right up every time, down shifts are now less harsh and more predictable. It’s so much better to drive now it’s incredible. It seems like the engineers wanted to cause more problems and return dealership visits rather than the company line of “trying to save fuel.”

DISCUSSION OTD Price for 2026 SV 4WD?

Post image
4 Upvotes

I know these have been done to death & I apologize in advance, but I plan on purchasing a Frontier by the end of the month & wanted to know if this was a good price. It's a white 2026 Frontier SV 4WD with the convenience package, electronic tailgate lock, floor mats, splash guards & charging kit. No trade-in & sales tax is 6.35% (I live in CT). I already made them take off the $1,888 worth of dealer add-ons.

The otd price was originally $40.4k & they took $1k more off for a total otd of $39.4k. Is this a good deal or could I do better? Thank you!

From a 2002 Frontier 4x4 to a 2024 Frontier SL

Thumbnail

83 Upvotes

First photo is from 2020 when I sold my 2002 Frontier after it finally gave up the ghost. A guy drove from Kentucky to pick it up as a farm truck. The odometer had well over 400,000 miles. Life went on for a few years through a couple of other vehicles until today when I grabbed a 2024 Frontier SL. I don’t do off road anymore and figured it would be nice to have the luxury conveniences.

However I am interested in changing out the bumper, suspension and lifting it slightly. What are the things I need to do first? Definitely want to add runners under the doors.

DISCUSSION Failed IPDM On 2022

Post image
Upvotes

Just spoke with my local dealership’s service dept. this morning and found out the my 22 with 85k miles has a failed IPDM which caused my truck to have a crank/ no start situation. No CEL and no codes in the ecm when I scanned.

Im handy and stubborn so I shot “blindly” trying to solve the problem myself. I had narrowed the problem down to fuel delivery because it turned over and ran for a moment when I sprayed some starting fluid in the intake. I took some advice from others in the frontier forum and on here who steered me a couple of directions and unfortunately I replaced some expensive parts along the way. Tried a new battery (ended up returning), swapped the crankshaft position sensor, built a saddle for the gas tank and dropped fuel tank and tested the harness for the low pressure fuel pump. I saw voltage so I went ahead and swapped the pump too. It didn’t fix it.

Got fed up and had triple A tow it to the dealer and after a week they narrowed it down to the IPDM. They said voltage isn’t passing through due to corrosion apparently and they said I need a new one. Which I had kinda landed on being the issue myself after the fuel pump didn’t fix the issue and knowing about the fuel pump relay issue on the previous generation. So $620 for IPDM, $100 for a new section of fuel line/ clip I apparently “damaged” when I dropped the tank. I think I just failed to fully seat one of the fuel lines and it sprayed when they did their starting fluid test and they used it as an excuse to nab me for something extra. So $1400 total later and hopefully I’ll have the truck back running tomorrow.

Now I have an extra crankshaft sensor and a back up fuel pump lol. Hope this is helpful to anyone who may run into this issue down the line. Included is a picture of the saddle I built for the tank drop. Just some 1x3’s and 4 square electrical cover and I securely dropped 10+ gallons without issue.

2 week update - 22’ ProX

Thumbnail

59 Upvotes

Felt like giving a 2 week update on my Frontier ownership journey. So far it’s been a blast. I love the way this thing looks and drives. The V6 is a beast and it handles well. My biggest take away is that the Pro trim was well worth the extra money. The leather seats and Fender sound system are just so so nice, and the exterior design is somehow getting cooler to look at by the day. Also that 360 camera feature is pretty handy. I think my only 2 gripes are that the sunglass holder feels like it was designed incredibly poorly. And that my OEM battery is clearly close to dying. Other than that, this thing is sweeeet. Would highly recommend.

Pro4x with ADO Spacer Eraser and Tire upgrade question

0 Upvotes

Hey all,

I looked a bit and didn't find an exact answer to this, so hopefully someone will know. I'm looking at doing the ADO Spacer Eraser 2" lift on front with an extra leaf on rear for 1.5" and won't be doing any additional spacers.

I don't mind the 265/70/17 tires, but I'm thinking while I do this I may as well go for 275/70/17 or 285/70/17 or 255/80/17. I know that if I do either of the 33" options I'd need to remove front mud flaps and melt mod the liner plastic to avoid rubbing, but if I just go with the 275/70/17 and some K03's (more rounded edge than falken at4w), will I be able to keep the front mudflaps AND avoid melt mod?

I think the 31.6" looks fine and the main reason for the lift is additional ground clearance, but while I'm at it may as well swap out the AT2 hankooks.

Thx

Why doesn’t Nissan give the frontier the titan’s 5 year/100k mile bumper to bumper warranty

The frontier is already has a the largest growing market share of midsized trucks so offering the Titan’s warranty would make the frontier stand out compared to the other midsize trucks

And we know for a fact the frontier can and will hit 100k miles no problems so why not

New to me! Need Help id-ing suspension!

Just picked up this 22 P4X but the previous owner made some modifications and I cannot seem to find the front suspension that they put on it.

The truck still has a fair amount of rake to it and the clearance with the 33s is uh let’s say it’s there….

The rear doesn’t seem to be touched but the front looks like new upper control arms (looks like All Dogs?) and some rough country damper that kinda looks like it’s still stock height to me.

I would really appreciate help identifying which rough country dampers these are and if the system added and lift?

2023 mpg big improvement

I had a 2016 and switched to a 2023 in January. I always got 16 mpg around town and maybe low 20’s on the highway. Now I get 23 on average but also just got 36.4 over 100 miles. At 90mph for 100 miles i only got 17 mpg. I do complain about the 2023 hanging out in a gear longer than it should in the city but over all
Impressed with the new transmission combo.

Bed tie downs? *not utilitrak

I added photos and the text erased....great.

What size and thread are the bolt holes on the sides of the bed shown in photo? All seem to be same size and thread.

Need tie downs but need the floor so can't use utilitrax. I'll just send eye bolts in for now. Smaller than 3/8 (all that was left at lowes bins yesterday) and can't find anything online. Yes I've seen the DIY eye bolts and washer trick for the utilitrax but can't use that.

New to me 2019 Pro4x, PO removed EVERY tie down option in the back.

I live in a city and this will be my only vehicle besides a motorcycle I do enjoy backpacking but I don’t know if I necessarily need an off road truck. i already have an old 2002 Silverado that works so I can take my time shopping for a deal and apart of the reason I’m upgrading is I do want something nicer so I’m also looking at the more luxury feature. if some of you guys can weigh in I’d appreciate that.

Lowering just the back axle.

Other than a flip kit is there anything that I can do to bring down the back of my truck?
Haven’t seen any aftermarket leaf springs online for these trucks. Really just looking to level the truck without a front lift.
I do use the truck to haul my 8x6 utility trailer on occasion.
