Thank you all in advance for your input!
Now for my suspension question:
I have been working steadily toward making my pathy as road worthy as possible because I would like to go on travels with it versus to being restricted to my local area. I am about to pull the trigger on buying some struts and bushings to replace the stockers...they are shot (256,000 miles). My pathy has the electronic adjustable suspension, but I am really limited on funds for my toy project. So here are my options:
Monroe OE Spectrum
KYB GR-2
SENSEN
ULTIMA
Also should I replace the springs? I really have no clue on weather or not to do so...most say that they should be good still, but I have read a lot that pathy's wear out....thoughts....
and no I am not looking to lift it at this time...depends on the future...if I do a complete overhaul on the engine and drivetrain, I will lift it then, but more than likely I will have moved on to a different toy at that point...unknown as I am really enjoying this pathy despite its decrepit state currently.
Cheap strut shock choices....HELP

If you want to go with your stock replacement rear coils Part # is MOOG 81115 I put these on mine and I see that the 81115 Moogs are on sale at Amazon for $35.63 a pair.Amazon had the lowest prices when I was looking on the shocks and struts also.I went through the Warehouse Deals at Amazon and got my Rear KYBs for $11 each I am not sure if they still have them at that price now or not?You will want to check out rockauto.com for any parts you need!They usually have the BEST PRICES on automotive parts in the USA.They might even give out an additional
5% or 10% to Nissan Path members.If you want to lift your Pathfinder a little you can checkout the Lift Spacers that I put all the info on this site in the classifieds section.There are a few choices in shocks and struts but alot of us run the KYBs.Good Luck!! Born
