Nissan Frontier 1st Gen
Build and Fabrications
Project RIOTER
Built for family adventures, and to get you out on the trails too.
About the Build
2009-2019
I owned a 2003 Extended Cab for 10 years, but it wasn’t the right fit for my family once I had kids. The name Rioter came from rearranging and removing two letters in the word Frontier, just because I could.
2019-Present
The current build is an 03 manual Crew Cab Short Bed 4wd Frontier starting stock, at 231k miles. I'm going to miss the 6ft bed, but I didn't want a longer wheelbase, and I prefer the 2001-2004 model range because of their minimal electronics and gadgets. The goal of this build will be to get my family out on moderate level trails, and I wanted to provide ideas for others who might also own a Frontier, or are thinking of purchasing one. ClubFrontier.org 1st Gen Hangout & this Facebook.com Frontier D22 group both have a bunch of helpful info if you're just getting into these trucks and you want to do a little reading.
