Calmini – Solid Axle Swap Kit – Nissan Xterra 4×4 2000 – 2004

If you are ready to take your xterra to the next level, this is the only system that can take it there. We are happy to release the first kit of its kind for Nissan vehicles, the CALMINI Solid Axle Swap. This kit is over 85% bolt-on with the only welding to occur on the donor axle. Our complete system allows for the entire removal of the stock IFS system and a full replacement, with a full center skid, with a solid axle out of an early model Jeep Wagoneer. The donor axle this kit is designed for is out of a 1980-85 Jeep Wagoneer model Dana 44 (D44), with a driver&#39s side drop and a non-vacuum actuated disconnect.

This system is a new, complete replacement set designed to correct the chronic problem of a worn idler arm and center drag link. The system includes a new precision machined Pitman & Idler Arm assemblies from billet 4140 heat treated alloy. The new idler arm rides on full replacement 3/4&#34 pivot bracket using a much enlarged friction surface a durable Bronze bushing. Bracing the new idler arm to the vehicle is a fully incorporated idler arm brace that strengthens the entire unit. Also included in the system is a completely new Center Drag Link made from 1 1/8&#34 x .250&#34 wall thick DOM tubing. The center drag link uses beefy off the shelf 11/16&#34 McQuay Norris tie-rod ends for maximum strength and durability. The Center Drag Link is completely rebuildable and parts can be purchased from us directly. Lastly, the kit includes new replacement tubular tie rod adjustment links that due to the system&#39s change in configuration, are longer than stock. This added length helps reduce bump steer angle over stock. This system is simple, durable, completely serviceable, and requires no modification to stock parts or vehicle. Intended for both on and off-road use. The entire kit is finished in Zinc 1 silver plating for the ultimate in durability.
