Rear Lift

Postby Pathfinder2009 » Wed Apr 12, 2017 5:48 am

Would like to get rid of the rear sag as most stock Pathfinders do.What's the easiest , fastest and cheapest way to raise the rear a few inches.

Looks great! So if I used the Armada coils would I need to change the shocks? Also, what did you use for yours?

No need for new shocks if they are not shot.

Sounds good. So just swap out the Pathfinder coils with Armada coils.

You dont have to replace the shocks. When I did my rear I put Armada Coils and swapped the Original shocks with KYB Gas-A-Justs mono tube shocks. I already had Airlift 1000's before so I just put them in the Armada coils.

I just put HD armada coils and 4600 bilsteins into our '06; I'm happy with the results, but it's definitely noticable. I was worried about the other half, but after driving it she wants me to put the shock/coil combo in hers now. Oddly (maybe due to worn suspension?) I got a good lift from this - like 2". I started with a fender height of 34" and ended with 37.5". I did make the jump from 245/75-16 to 285/75-16 so height is obviously increased by that.

EDIT: I guess photobucket has changed their 3rd party hosting policy; I'll try to get some pictures up soon,
