This will probably make me sound like an ass, but I'v never had a job.

1) MPG is a @!*% load better in that than my r50. 2) It actually does really well on the beach 3) and it's nice to be 18 and have a $53,000 SUV, but whatever, some like em and some dont, it's cool Drift: yeah, that's the lift I'm getting. He says they'll be ready to go before he goes off to school so it should'nt be long

I put in 1" spacers on each side. Next month I'll have 7" of lift. :cool2: Cant wait, and thanks. But "what does that mean?" was refering to sammb33's post. Explain buddy...

What does that mean? And kinda: AC's lift, Strut Spacers, and 31's.

It was an option on the Avalanche. I got one without the plastic, traded it in the next day for one with because it looked like sh*t without it, then totaled that one two days later. On some trucks, that plastic does not look bad, until it fades. Then I got the Denali, so I dont have to worry about that anymore.

I'd guess AC's lift, since I got well over 3" from it too.

It wont hurt it to drive before you get the hubs. Mine have been at a crazy angle for well over a year and I've never had a problem off or on road.

Get 6, grade 8, 3/8" bolts that are 2 - 2.5" long. I have 1" spacers and the 2.5" length was perfect. And like said on AC, those hubs WILL work as long as your centercaps are big enough.

I had a 285/75 SSR test fitted on my 16x8 with 4" bs and it just cleared.

Just take your struts to a shop that will fab some up for you and they can get all of the dimensions from your strut, it's the same shape. I have the Conferr rack that is sold on AC's site, and four Hella 500's.

The GEICO guy who inspected it after an accident said to me, "Wow, you've got a nice Jeep." WTF!!!!???

Those custom spacers are the strut spacers.

Thanks! I just got the basic 4 coil setup. Upgraded to Rancho 9000's in the rear a few months after putting the lift on, then went with Rancho struts last month, and like Max said, the spacers are custom.

Dont go with a 10" wide rim. F*ck up you steering. Any strut spacer would have to be custom made. I have the AC lift with 1" spacers up front: Those are 16x8 with 4" BS. I've never had a problem with my CV's in any situation, and I'm more 3.5" over stock front height.

Your 32's fit because of the rims. They push the tire out away from the struts.

Why not lift it? it's really not that much. With a lift you could obviously put on bigger tires. If you arenot going to lift it I'd do 265/70/16. If you want an all terrain, I think BFG is the best, I think their mud terrain is pretty damn good too. Just look around and see what style you like.

Kind of tire depends on what you use it for. I drive a lot in soft, deep sand, and the BFG AT works great.

Try looking first. http://www.nissanpathfinders.net/forum/index.php?showtopic=9729

I dont think anybody wheels harder than Max.

You mean the Ford Exploder.

I rolled it on the beach one time. I swear I was amost completley sideways before I actually "rolled over." I even had a 32" spare on my rack, but I was pitched down on the drivers side to the point where I could have probably stuck my arm out and touched sand, then I slowly landed on the side. I was pleasantly surprised at how much angle I had without going over , until I did .

I got a full replacment bumper including paint for $179 from the dealer, the same dealer that charged me hundreds and hundreds for the strut mounts.

Yes, you can use the top mount from the strut. You can buy the hubs from AC. Post Pics!!

I put silverstars in when I got the car in March of 2003, they look the same now as they did then.

Good lord thats a lot of mud Max. I just removed my rear mudflaps. And since they are integrated into the the side trim, I just used a hand jig-saw and belt sander. It looks much better now.
