Sounds like a front driveshaft U-joint - does it come from underneath?

Subscribed - I'm having the same issues with Armada HD springs in the rear and Radflos up front. Hard to keep control on wet corners. Had 2 shops attempt without luck - at least neither charged me. Trying a 3rd next week. Want to get it figured before new tires - my current ones are scrubbed/chopped...

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 - li...

Spacers will cause premature bearing and bushing failure (due to the longer 'moment arm' causing additional stress) but if you rig is aligned without the spacers, it'll still be aligned with them. I've had alignment issues on both our pathfinders. On our 2010 we get around 20-25k out of a set of tir...

From my experience you're lucky it threw a code http://www.thenissanpath.com/viewtopic.php?t=14790&highlight= I had the issue, the sensor seemed OK, but haven't had the issue since I replaced it. I went Nissan OEM as I figured the first one went ~155k so it shouldn't give me additional trouble i...

My worry with spacers on top of lift coils is that there would literally be zero down-travel. Do you guys who have the Rancho QuckLift's get coil bucket contact with the upper control arm when you're going over speed bumps? I ran spacers up front on my old Xterra as the first phase lift and that was...

Hey, Pete, I realize you're in need of a quick turnaround for parts, but I found the best pricing for our 2010 was from Courtesy Parts (based in TX I believe). A few months ago, I bought a 2006 and would be willing to relieve you of your old harness - it's only got the 4-pin and everything I tow is ...

Nice!

I recently de-chromed some of mine as well. Like the reverse lights, I may have to do something similar 8)

Wish I could help. Was just looking for this myself but ended up getting the standard-length 4600's.

Curious if anyone knows. Maybe call Greg at PRG?

I am pretty sure it needs to be programmed by a dealer. Tow + 1/2 hr labor + like $120 programming fee = :(

It literally takes them 5 mins, too.

Late to reply, but when changing out front strut/spring components, the only time I had to disconnect the ball joint (on my Xterra) was when I was installing front lift springs without a spring compressor. YMMV

Glad you got it sorted, looks good

Thanks for the diagram. I use the 2006 FSM from my Xterra so didn't have the numbers on the Pathy - I just printed it to stick in my FSM. Seems as though mine's about a inch low at all corners, about 1.5" at the right rear corner so it wouldn't surprise me to find that spring broken when I star...
