In search of a leveling kit.

Postby Hoss1980 » Wed Nov 12, 2014 7:01 pm

I have a 2005 Pathfinder and would like to just level the front end and give it a little height. I purchased Mickey Thompson Baja STZ 245/70r 17 and a set of Ultra matte black wheels. I'm looking for something economical and durable...I've searched on line and I am not really sure what route to take. I want to keep it cheap.
Thanks for any help...I need it!

Thanks! The spacer idea seems like the route I should take. I'm thinking the 1.5" spacers should level the front end. Thoughts? Ideas?

You're probably better off doing the the full PRG mini kit. My pathfinder seems to sit fairly level as it is, and I think a 1.5" front only kit would make it sit nose high. Keep in mind you're going to want bigger tires with it, stock ones look small after any lift.

You can also use Rancho quick lift. If budget is not a concern, consider the OME which is a full suspension lift upgrade.

I think the full prg 2" kit is the way to go for me. After further inspection the Pathfinders front end does not dip...it must have been my imagination! I am by no means a mechanic, but I am handy...so will it take me the 3 hours like they say???

Sparkman did you ever install the PRG lift? I bought one and was wondering how you did....have any problems? Tips? Hints? Pointers?
