Well Aaron suggested I share the trucks with everyone so here is a collection of shots I have taken of the trucks. They are both Nissan Frontiers - one is a 2007 and the other is a 2002. They are heavily modified, all work done by my fiance (also named Aaron..go figure).

These were all taken with auto settings, as I had not learned anything about the manual settings until a short while ago. I have some creative angle shots and framed shots of the trucks that I may share another time but I thought these would do just to show the trucks off.

Hope everyone enjoys and C&C welcome, I know i'm a newb:D

    That's what Nissan calls "storm gray." That's the one I wheel now, the silver one was mine but after we put the solid axle under that became Aaron's toy and I drive his. So essentially we switched haha :)

    There's a saying that "If you have to ask, you can't afford it." I can't afford it so I'm asking. How much does it cost to make this kind of modification?

    Well for us, doing the solid axle swap cost us about $4500 after all was said and done. We saved a lot of money because my fiance pretty much put it together himself. If a shop had done it, it would have been much more. There are two ways to do a solid axle swap..coil overs or leafs. We went with leafs as it is much less complicated and much less expensive. We are changing up some of the rear-end setup and that which is costing us about another $650 on top of the $4500 we initially spent to set it up. We used our tax returns to fund this build. And as I said all the metal work you see on the truck (bumpers, sliders, etc) my fiance did himself so we only had to pay for parts, not labor. This is for just the silver truck.

    Howdy Natalie,

    Great Shots, and Great Trucks, you can sure see all the hard work that went into them, and how it pays off on all the hard climbs, I can't even imagine being in there while doing that, I get a little concern on dirt roads:D:D:D
    Take care,
