Armada Rear Spring?

Postby mic209 » Fri Dec 29, 2017 11:36 pm

Will armada rear springs provide any lift on an 08 SE 4x4?

Yes. I got mine from Autozone for $141.99 (2007 year) the pair lifetime warranty. After about a month they are still about 2.5 inches higher than previously. Only issue I am now having is getting the rear alignment back into specs. Also I can load the rear cargo without it sagging.

You can get offset bushings to help with the alignment.

Do you have the part number for the bushings?

Thank You, what about the front alignment, going with Rancho quick lift loaded. Can I use any off the shelf camber bolts? Or do I need a certain set to get the range needed to get it within specs.

My preference is the genuine Nissan camber bolts, which you can order each part individually from Nissan or as a kit from several companies, including 4x4parts.com. I have heard that the camber bolt kit from PRG products has a little more range of adjustment, however.
