super pumped about this bro. gonna be a good time and its exciting to see you using a platform that will really let you explore the overland aftermarket to the extreme if you wanted.
if you're putting the alarm in it might pay to run a fuel pump cutoff switch that you can hide in the cab somewhere just in case. with that amount of kit on the rig and street parking, any additional hassle you can give a GranTheftAuto-wannabe is helpful.
i'm finding this out with the teardrop but if you have some blank "filler" buttons in the dash/console or some flat open space, it might pay dividends to run some dual 1 and 2A USB ports. they're shaped like cig lighters, you could even just swap out your lighter for the USBs. with the amount of electronics you carry around for photography and the camp batteries it could be convenient. they're like $5 on amazon.
i run bils 4600's on the xterra and would agree to at least the 5100 or beefier. the X rides very OEM but you can feel the rear axle get sloppy after an extended loaded down trip where the back end is seeing a lot of travel and the shocks start to overheat a bit. hindsight is 20/20 but i should have done the 51's when i had the chance.
