Developed and fixed a terrible thumping noise in the front passenger side wheel well. After parking it in "full lock" I rocked the Pathy by the fender. I noticed that the TRE link was pretty loose. A couple of rounds with a #18 and all is well.

Then you want what I wanted. Max lift from the springs. I went with the AC set up and am perfectly happy with my choice.

Hmm ... I've had my AC lift since march and my factory cv's and boots are fine (including two months with the strut spacers).

Great idea! Lock the thread now!

MX-5 ... duh?

I believe that Pezzy is running the AC springs w/o the camber bolts? They only suggest using them to eliminate the "bull dog" stance that you will get regardless of which springs you choose to go with.

Exactly. Just ask about the reliability of the Rancho struts.

Ditto.

Mine had a sort of clunking sound in the same area that you are describing. I ended up replacing the wheel bearings and a bad TRE and the noise stopped. I replaced both at the same time so I can't tell you which was the culprit though.

Please. For the love of all things great. Take before and after photos! I'm running 31x10.5 tires and have plenty of room for larger tires. I'm deff going with 32's next time.

Yeah, hopefully what you are describing as "axel pop" is what Esy just described or you may have a problem.

My R50 ain't got no foot well lights.

$2,500 for springs in Australia? Talk about robbery!

I do alot of tailgaiting with my red top powering my sat tv and stereo. I have drained it time and time again for the past 6 years. It still starts like a champ!

I don't see why you couldn't use double sided tape in lieu of the plastic tabs. The plastic tabs broke as I pulled my flares off (prefer the bare look) but, had to put them back on due to the holes in my fenders. They do not fit snug with out them. Hey, wann'a trade fenders?

I must be confusing the plastic spacer (or adapter) that came with my red top? Are you guys talking about a vehicle specific adapter?

My red top came with an adapter plate.

I didn't realize how high the Pathfinder sold for back then. Nice post by the way!

Yeah? I know .. right? Where's the pictures? Sheesh!

^^^ what he said.

ON = Yeah, that is some evil rake you got going on there. OFF =

Can't think of anything right now other than to go to your local Nissan dealership and order the factory strut mounts and bearings.

Whoa. Those are some wicked large wheel weights on the rims eh'?

Exactly!

You basically have the same "kit" on both of the links. However, STAY AWAY FROM THE RANCHO STRUTS! The KYB GR-2 struts are your best bet. We have had several members here experience major issues with the Rancho's. I have had no issues with the Rancho shocks (and even like the way they look on my rig) but, there have been multiple reports of Rancho strut failures. In fact, one was just reported last week with one of our memebers in Australia. *edit ... I purchased my lift from the very same web site that you are searching. I simply "put" my kit together and came out cheaper than what you have found so far. Try to search the springs, shocks, and struts individually and you will be much happier!
