The Nissan Path

I just ordered my entire suspension lift kit from RockAuto for about $600 shipped. This is cheaper than Amazon. This included the quicklift coil over struts, rs9000xl adjustable rear shocks, stiffer rear springs and the rear spring spacer. And Rancho currently has a $120 rebate for buying the struts and springs. Don't forget to use the code MMAIL6 where is says "where did you hear about us" for a 5% discount too.

The rear springs are actually for an Armada, but they are rated for 100 lbs more per side. They're the same diameter and essentially the same height. I'll include photos once everything comes. My current rear springs are shot, like 1/4" from the bump stops shot.



How do I include photos?

Yes! It worked. Thanks Flickr.

This is a photo of my truck resting on a jack stand placed under the rear spring and all 3 other wheels on the ground. There's no extra weight in the truck and I have about 3/4 tank of fuel. Plus the center seat has been removed. My suspension is basically just that rubber stop! No wonder it rides so rough.

Here's the list of struts, springs, shocks and spacers I got. For some reason it's showing shipping from 4 warehouses instead of 2 as when I purchased them. The quicklift coil overs and shocks are $50 less than on Amazon.

I'd recommend the airlift 1000 after you get the springs sorted.

I've seen a lot of people on here that like it. I've been considering it. Once I get the new springs in I'll report back to let you all know how they ride.

Looks like a good set up. I'd like to see how it turns out with the Armada coils. I have only done the front of mine with the Rancho Quick lift.

I just made the same purchase!

Thanks for the discount code.

Just ordered the springs. Already have the spacers.

Here are the specs for both the acDelco springs. The Ramada ones are also half the price.

The pathfinder springs are weaker but slightly longer where as the armada springs are longer when compressed and rated for a heavier load. I would think that the armada springs would offer very very slight lift but would definitely be better off road and carrying a load or towing.

They were taken off the off rockauto.com the armada springs are the same talked about on this thread

My springs will arrive tomorrow and I plan on installing them Wednesday or Thursday. I really need to get something under this pig. Thanks DiBo for adding that info. I'm certain these will raise the rear on my truck, since I'm basically sitting on the bump stops already. I'll post photos.

My parts are here. Warm weather coming Thursday, so that's when the parts will go on. The Rancho spacers fit the armada springs perfectly. Can wait to ride on these.

I got my coils in today but they are twistwd together. I can't even untangle them.

After messing with them I was able to separate them. I'll probably install mine next week.

Careful when running new coils and spacers unless you already purchased longer shocks. Fully extending them will cause damage.

Thupertrooper is correct. I thought these shocks would be made for extended travel. It says in their description for use with 0 to 1 3/4" of lift, but they are the same length as the stock shocks. They are the limiting factor for downward travel. I may have to put a limiting strap through the coil buckets just for a little peace of mind. They aren't fully extended when sitting on the ground at least.
