Same here. Besides being a cool project, i love offroad and all related to that, and i also have a 20 year old 4wd Nissan that´s not an XTerra, but is relatively similar, so i´m also learning something useful.

*Watching Sarah fiddle with the torsion bars on a Nissan is so funny to me because I used to loosen mine to lower my truck. You have to remember on a Nissan that the gas tank is on one side of the frame so the weight isn't even when trying to get the truck level. I always had to put the truck on the ground and drive it back and fourth so the suspension settles into its normal ride height. Then you can do a final tweak to get the height the same on both sides.*

Sarah, suspension bushes are best torqued with the vehicle sitting normally. If done with the suspension hanging, they twist once sat. Once you're happy with all the adjustments, slacken each and retorque, with the weight of the vehicle sat on its wheels. A real pain for some. A four-poster lift is useful, unless you can get the lift legs under the suspension arms.
