Even when not going fast over speed bumps...ie., I am not trying to get airborne...I have thought about coil slap, also have heard that the coil can contact the upper a arm on lifted vehicles -- had that happen on my toyota with the coil spacer...but this is different...I am going to look at the T-c...

Front End Knock

I am experiencing a front end knock when shifting into drive and accelerating from a standstill...also occasionally occurs when hitting speed bumps or driveways... I have the OME suspension front and rear...took it to the local 4x shop -- they couldn't find anything...Anyone else with the OME experi...

1. LACK OF AFTERMARKET PARTS AVAILABILITY!!!
(unless you live in Australia)

2. Third Row seat is useless, I'd rather have a larger second row.


Still kicks the 4Runners butt, even without the V8!

Update: I confirmed with Steve at Courtesy (really helpful guy by the way) that they would have to sell me the whole lid assembly since he doesn't have a part number for the latch only in his database. He told me if I can get the part # from my local dealer (which they have and wont give me because ...

One more thing on the OME. I've noticed most everyone is getting quite a bit more lift in the back than the front... has anyone done anything to try and level the truck? raise the front an additional inch somehow?? Mine turned out perfectly level...mediums in the front. I'll post pics soon, I've be...

Okay....so far, so good. I picked up the Pathy today, and it seems they did a good job. No noticeable alignment issues. The truck now sits noticeably higher than with the Rancho kit, and the ride is much, much better. I took the truck on a spin down a local canyon road. Only time the VDC went off wa...

UPDATE: I will be picking up the Pathy tomorrow. I went by the shop today with the printouts of the alignment specs you guys posted above (much thanks!). They said at that point they were close, just the VDC kept going off on hard corners. Visual inspection leads me to believe that the OME kit is gi...

I don't see how it could be frozen bushings, and I assume you mean frozen as in stuck tight as opposed to weather related. I was thinking it may have something to do with the spring isolators, maybe don't use both as in stock? I spoke with another guy at ARB who confirmed it should work for 05-08. W...

Getting my OME installed today...

4 Wheel Parts is doing it, and they are having problems with the alignment in the rear. They called ARB, who said the problem is they don't make a kit for the 2007 Pathfinder. Mine is a 2007.

Anybody else with an 07 have issues?

I know I've been excused, but the only reason I welded mine was because the holes in the rear didn't line up where they were supposed to, and I didn't want to have only one bolt connecting the rear. I think the Shrocks stick out more than the Rocky Roads, I use mine as a step to get to the rack, I p...

It seems to me that is a totally useless and technically improper comparison lineup.... Would you compare a mini cooper in the same category as a corvette? You can't compare a Jeep Liberty with a Pathfinder, or an H2 with a Tundra for that matter. Of course I am biased towards the Pathfinder, but I ...

The latch was $15. However, they could only sell me the whole lid assembly at $145.... How do you know its $15, if it isnt available? So you can't buy just the latch? The guy at the counter said..."Too bad you can't just buy the latch yourself...cause its only $15.00....If it weren't on TSB, y...

I was informed by 3 local dealerships that I can't buy just the latch...and, since this is southern california, they are all too busy to do an on the spot fix. Of course, after they assess that the latch is broken, they have to order it. I am going to contact Courtesy Nissan in Texas today to see if...
