Nice truck mate. Up to it balls and all. I am yet to take mine off road but looking forward to that day when I am knee deep in it.
Yeah mate the mudder the truck get the happier i get!!! That weekend I went places that a 80 series was not able to get
Love the Navara now!!!
Last trip we went on the Hub Shat it's self. Replaced with AVM Hubs
Really great hubs would suggest to anyone to put in

What happened to the hubs mate? I've pulled mine apart and greased them up and they seem like a pretty solid unit.

Hope the AVM hubs hold up Jas, of all the brands the genuine Nissan ones are the strongest from what I've read, most don't rate the AVM hubs anywhere near as strong as the Nissan.

Thats exactly what I was thinking shonky but didn't want to burst his bubble!
the bearing race on the drivers side failed, only found about 7 of the ball bearings. When i was find how much the replacement hub was i found that the AVM hub design was a lot better and you know when the hub is as it is has a positive feedback when engaging and disengaging.
but all in all i got the AVM hubs for about $ 250 so it was the cheaper option, very happy now, not much fun in 3 wheel drive!!

Fair enough I'll make sure I'll keep an eye on mine at service intervals.

what lift kit have you gone with? And how much have you been quoted?

Looks good jas, but one thing, check the distance between the top bump stops on the front, any less than 10mm and it will top out on them on largish bumps all the time and chew out your upper control arm bushes, not to mention ride like a pig.
