how much do you think it would cost to install a body lift?
i was thinking about putting maybe a 3 inch lift kit on my 2002 Nissan frontier crewcab. the body lift i was going to get was at: http://www.stylintrucks.com/part.aspx?category|category_root|-30=Suspension&category|cat_-30|200=Lift+Kits+%26+Accessories&partfamilyid=4421&partid=496702&x=36198&scid=FROOGLE
Body lifts are a cheap and ugly alternative to lifting a truck the right way. Body lifts expose the frame and on a smaller truck like yours it looks even worse than on a fullsize truck. Modification to the steering column and brake lines need to be done at the very least.
A suspension lift is the right way to go and it isn't really that much especially when you consider the headache you'll save yourself. In a suspension lift you just have to bolt things on instead of cutting and welding and modifying.
The body kit you're looking at isn't cheap at al, probably because it's a Nissan. If your paying someone to do it then a body kit will cost as much as a suspension kit will doing it yourself. A few hundred dollars in labor, maybe $500-$800 depending on what needs to be done. It could be even more than that if it takes a lot of time to modify things. So your at or near $1000 to put in a body lift not adding in the gap guards that are sold separately. And you can't use your rear bumper anymore to tow.
A suspension kit will cost about $500(Rancho makes one) to $800 or so minus extended shocks and it'll be about the same or less $ in labor to install. I saw a kit on Ebay for your truck for less than $500 shipped. It's a really good deal. Here's the link: http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/Rancho-Suspension-RS6592-Lift-Kit-00-04-Xterra-Frontier-_W0QQcmdZViewItemQQfitsZYearQ3a2002Q7cModelQ3aFrontierQQhashZitem1c18d9568eQQitemZ120675980942QQptZMotorsQ5fCarQ5fTruckQ5fPartsQ5fAccessories. The seller is warpspeedeauctions. I don't know if it fits your truck or not so you'd need to call Rancho.
Buy the suspension kit and do it yourself or with someone you know who knows how to turn a wrench to save some $. It's not hard. The body kit is harder and you're saving almost no $ by getting it.
