Lift Advice

Lifted with the PRG 2" mini lift.

If you can avoid any spacers - don't use them. Of course it will be the easiest way to lift but you will sacrifice articulation of your suspension.

Besides 'proper' ways to lift Path you can use easy solutions like:
1 - you can simply change springs to OME medium, not Heavy! w/o changing any shocks at all;
2 - you can change both ammos and springs, but again - use OME, ToughDog, IronMan or Eibach springs;

but better do not install mini-lift kits and spacers in case you will go off-road - definitely.

Thanks, I went with the spacer lift because I only wanted to be able to use bigger tires and I liked the look. It definatly helped to firm up the ride and take a lot of the bounce. I really don't use my Pathfinder for serious "off roading", just occasional excursions off road.

I think the lift looks good. Also you will be ok off-road with a spacer lift. I had 2 inch pucks on my 99 Jeep to start off with and they did just fine. My jeep handled just fine.

I was looking into the OME kit for my '08 but the site says:

North America Pathfinder Owners 2005+, please be advised: On US and Canada Nissans, this kit provides 2.5-3" of lift which has been known to cause alignment problems leading to a potentially poor handling vehicle. No warranty on any late pathfinder suspension components and no returns.

I like the look, but since 90% of my driving is on paved roads the above statement has me somewhat worried, will a camber kit help avoid the problems or am I better off looking elsewhere?

How long did it take for the PRG lift to arrive?

Give Greg a call and he can explain all your options and lead times, etc.

If all you're looking for is a spacer kit, that should be out the door that same day. If you're looking for coilovers, that may take a little longer since he actually builds the set up himself and then sends it out after parts are received and after he builds them.

I have a 2008 SE model 2wd and was wanting to lift it enough so I could fit 32.5-33 in tires on it. any suggestions?

[RCAPathfinder]

With 2wd I woukd do a body lift since you will probably not take it off road much.

I did the rancho quicklifts in the front with the 9000xl and rancho spacers in the back. I also got the airlift 1000 bags. The tires are 285-70-17, just a hair shy of 33".

No rubbing issues on turns? I just put wheel spacers so I had to trim fender behind wheel slightly.

No. The shop hit them with the heat gun and took care of them for me. Which spacers did you get?
