I haven't been in the R51 community too long, but the few years I have been here. Never heard of anyone breaking a rear axle or front axle due to lifts/additional wheel travel.

The most wheel travel in the rear from my experience so far is the Radflo extended shocks. For the front, Titan swap.

Z1 and UpRev are the only two tuners I can come up with.

No for both. You can use the the rear Armada springs if you have a pair laying around.

I personally haven't tried Bilsteins on the R51, I have however used OME Nitrocharger shocks and they drove well for me with OME medium duty springs. I'd get rid of the spacers and go with the Moog Armada springs at least.

Same.

Steve with Rugged Rocks Off Road has a group buy on M205 RCV axles. Deadline to get in on this probably one and last time access to these axles is Saturday December 14th. Prices hasn't publicly been released yet, but I'm guessing price is going to be around $2500+- for the pair. You have the option ...

I wonder if its a SMOD car. :| Short of death, thats just about the only thing that could get an owner to get rid of an otherwise well maintained and running R51 4x4, LE. For someone who doesnt do their own work and does not have parts hookups, the cost to replace the tranny would just be insurmoun...

I actually do need to do that so I can often look at my alignment to make sure they haven't moved. I have knocked my rear alignment off before by hitting dips a bit too hard. I'll do that once I get my replacement bearing spacer and new bolt in.

Check out the pinned thread at the top.

"First Time Post - TPMS"

You'll find diy instructions there if the tpms sensors are communicating with your BCM. I don't see why Nissan would change the frequency.

I recently installed a set of rebuilt Radflo coilovers and rear shocks for my R51 Pathfinder. In the midst of me installing and having my Pathfinder finally get an alignment, I've been driving it around the last couple weeks and felt that the rear shocks may need damping adjustments since the back e...

It's strange Nissan would do that other than maybe if they used different steel or made certain parts of the subframe "beefier". All v6s run the same rear diff, axles, sway bars, control arms, etc.

Good luck, exactly the option I would have chosen. Weld the crack for now.

You can always buy this guys Titan and swap as much as you can over to your R51

I've never heard of any differences. Maybe try going to nissanpartsdeal.com or a site that has parts diagrams with part numbers to see if they use the same part number for the rear subframe. I don't see why Nissan would change the rear subframe imo and should fit, but you may want to do some due dil...

Nice, thanks for the update. Enjoy your Pathfinder.

Welcome to the Pathfinder world. These suvs aren't very different from the Armada so you'll find a lot of similarities between the two.
