Rockauto.com is a good place if you are looking for aftermarket replacements comparable to your stock units, but many feel the stock lift shocks are a bit on the week side. There is an entire thread on this, which I'll line below. The stock units for the lift gate are 175 lb. force units. At McMaster-Carr, you can get 200 or 225 lb. force lifts which seem to be a lot better suited for the Pathfinder's heavy lift gate. On my 2006, I went with 200 lb. units and have been very happy with them. The part # is 9416K148. You can order them here:

Bought the Monroe max lifts from rock auto. Best price I could find. Half price compared to the dealer. Will let you know how they do.

Update: Installed.

Monroe Max-lifts work great for those interested.
