    What made you decide on the 110 instead of the new GX550?

    Break n Fix's Armada Mid Offroader Build

    ARB makes lockers for the front and rear, but the problem is they require 3.54 gears and the Armada comes with 3.36. There are no aftermarket gears available for these, so I would have to source them from a salvage yard overseas where some pathfinder models came with 3.54's. By the time I did...

    Break n Fix's Armada Mid Offroader Build

    Well I put the Armada to a serious test and drove the Lake Pleasant to Crown King Trail in AZ and it made it with the help of a group of Jeeps I ran into. Without them to spot and give me 2 yanks I would've had to turn around. It was a little wet and with my lack of clearance and lockers...

    They can make anything custom, but ruggedrocks has them listed for the R51 pathfinder with a r180 diff. Those should be the same as what the 2nd gen armada would need.

    Break n Fix's Armada Mid Offroader Build

    I got rid of my coil overs thinking that the extended travel is what was causing my premature CV failures, but even at less than 1" of lift I had another driver CV gone bad. Maybe it's Chinese parts? Probably, but the OEM CV's went bad pretty fast too. Since I had to replace yet another CV...

    Break n Fix's Armada Mid Offroader Build

    I ripped the stock bumper off on a downed log when I was turning around on a trail. It was peeled off from the passenger fender flare to the center radar mount. I zip tied it to get home and got the dash bumper as soon as I could. Approach angle is laughable in stock form, that front bumper is...

    Break n Fix's Armada Mid Offroader Build

    I am on 34" tires (295/70r18) with stock 3.36 gearing. The front bumper made it worse, but as she sits right now I get 15.5mpg averaged. I don't do stop and go since I am more rural, so if you live in suburbia or the city it will be worse, but I got 16.5 with the stock front bumper and 18.5...

    Break n Fix's Armada Mid Offroader Build

    Yep, I got a trailer and no one makes extended length airbags here in the states. Also I've had to replace 3 front CV's in the past 14 months and I am tired of dealing with it. The drivetrain on these Armada's are pretty weak.

    Break n Fix's Armada Mid Offroader Build

    Suspension has been changed again. I really needed airbags for towing and am tired of greasing urethane bushings every couple of weeks, so I went back to stock (actually sitting @ ~1" of lift). Front has Bilstein 5100s 24-197649 on the bottom spring notch w/ moog 81196 springs (3/4" of lift...

    Break n Fix's Armada Mid Offroader Build

    Mechanically it has been solid for me. Some people report brake switch issues, charging issues, and fan clutch issues, but mine has had none of those in the 55k miles on the odometer. Still on OEM battery after 4 years (and I live in Phoenix where the heat is not kind to lead acid batteries)...

    Break n Fix's Armada Mid Offroader Build

    I dont know the part #, but it is the titan front uca. I opted for the urethane bushings because with regular greasing they outlast heim joints in my experience. I did notch the bucket just to be safe, but it cleared by a very small margin before I notched it. I think the clearance was around...

    Break n Fix's Armada Mid Offroader Build

    Air compressor and lines were all removed. It has no function with the new springs and shocks. Front had issues when I was at 3" of lift in that CV's wouldn't last 10k miles. I dropped it to 2" now and hope that improves their life. Otherwise the front end is fine. Sent from my SM-G973U using...

    Break n Fix's Armada Mid Offroader Build

    Rear is fine, I had the king +30mm springs in it at first and they were 3" of lift. It still aligned fine, but the camber was positive and couldn't be adjusted out. It felt way oversprung with those in it. It feels perfect with the standard height king springs it has now at 2" of lift. The...

    Break n Fix's Armada Mid Offroader Build

    Here are some pics of everything. The dash bumper is good, but far from complete out of the box. It needed headlight supports, the radar cut out with an aluminum box I made to mount it and I still need to install the sonar sensors.

    I have a pair of brand new Moog 81085 springs if you're interested. I got them, skipped them, and went right to lift springs.

    e61's 2020 Armada/Patrol Y62 Build

    I wish the armada's ass end was easier to work with like how the patrol is setup. Not a bad solution given our predicaments, but I think I am going to make a new rear cross member and do some sheet metal work on the rear for mine. Are you going to re-route the backup camera?

    Did you have to call them for a special order? I only see montero stuff there.
