Leveling Kit for 2008 SE 4x4?

Postby Scott Spencer » Wed Apr 10, 2013 12:39 pm

I have almost driven myself nuts trying to find a leveling kit for my 2008 SE 4x4 on the internet! A couple of sources either no longer carry the part (no longer manufactured), seem to be out of business (Amped Off Road), or just won't respond to inquiries.

Let me go ahead and state that I know nothing of after market changes to my vehicles. I've never had one and this is my first attempt to do anything like this. I suppose that is why I have no idea where to go to get a leveling kit for my Path.

I went to my local off-road shop and I guess they only use certain suppliers as he told me he had nothing for my Pathfinder but they could see if they could fit one designed for a Titan.

Any help or advice would be appreciated from you experts!

Thanks!

Scott

Keep in mind any leveling kit for the 05-12 Frontier will fit the Pathfinder. And there are quite a few out there.

If you're just trying to lose the sag in the butt.....the airbags work wonders for less than $100.

Excellent!! Thanks for heads up that the Frontier will work on the PF!! Do I need to match the year, i.e., '08 Frontier for my '08 PF?

The bags were a thought but I'd prefer a regular leveling kit to get the nose up.

The bags offer sooooooo much more though, i'd install them regardless. Best mod available for the R51.

I'd say the HD rear springs and the rough country front leveling kit for bargain.

IMO the rear springs take care of the saggy rear and you get a slight lift from it. Take a look around the forum and it seems as if maybe you get 1.5" not the advertised 2.5" but they are a lot stiffer. Check out Carl's V8 super thread. But if you do find tht you're interested in the rear air bags, let me know, I've got a brand new unit up for grabs.


From the sounds of it, seems like you need to do more research on your own to see what you think would best fit you.
