    Question About Pro Comp ES3000's?

    in 96-2004 R50 Pathfinders

    Posted

    You'll need a sleeve (or bushing) that slides over the bolt on the upper mount on each side. You could probably take a shock and upper bolt from one side and look for something that fits well (both inner/outer diameter and length).

     

    Sorry, no pic's...kind of made it up as I went IIRC.

     

    Does that help, or did I miss the question?

     

    This may be a stupid question but would the bushing from the original shocks, the ones I'm taking off, work? Can they be removed? Thanks

    I tried to search this and didnt come up with what I was looking for. I remember reading some where a while ago, before I ordered these shocks, that they dont really mount up exactly right with our trucks? I was wondering what it is that makes them not just bolt right up? I've had the lift parts for a while now, need to find time to put it all on, but wanted to know what it was that I have to modify to make these work? I thought there was pictures of it as well, maybe from mudvaynes, cant remember. I think it had to do with the eyelets on the shocks maybe being to big?? Sorry everybody I really did try and search this first but couldnt find the answer. If one of you guys that use these shocks can chime in that would be great. Pictures would be better :aok:

    Need help with hub centric wheel spacers and Warn manual Hubs.

    So I wanted to get some hub centric either 1.25 or 1.5 inch wheel spacers. Here is the website http://www.motorsport-tech.com/special/truck/nissan_s?Next=31-45. My concern is I have Warn Manual Hubs on my pathfinder. The hub is 100mm on the auto hubs on our pathfinders, will a 100mm hub centric wheel spacer still fit over the Warn Hubs? The reason I don't think they will is that on some Toyota forums when I searched this online said they don't and that they had to use lug centric spacers since they had a larger center. Any help would be awesome! Thanks.

    The final word on lifting the R50 at a low Cost

    So just to clarify, I dont have extended length coils, in fact theyre old, as in the original ones. So you think adding the 2.5 on the front would not be advised, even on old run down coils? If so that .5 inches isnt a big deal then. 35.5 inches would be fine. I just know Ive seen people with OME and AC coils add 1 inch spacer on top of those, which I would assume is around 3 inches in the front.

    So quick question guys, on the pictures of the test truck the front measurements are slightly shorter than the rear. For example the stock measurement for the front at the fender is 33 inches and 34 at the rear fender. So my issue is that my measurements the front sits at 33 inches and the rear sits at 32.5 inches? Do you all think this may be due to bad shocks? My main concern is that if I base my order on what the truck on fleurys page, his leveled out due to the half inch more for the front spacers. so the 2 inch spacer in the front = 2.5 inches of actual lift, since the test trucks front measured shorter in the first place this worked out. So I plan on ordering the pro-comp ES3000 shocks, do you all think that with these new shocks my rear will be raised up and not so squatty, so higher in the rear vs lower in the rear as i sit now? I just want to avoid a ridiculous reverse rake look, I dont mind it being slightly higher in the front, but not an inch or more difference.

    New Goodyear Authority A/T's

    So I got new tires on the Pathfinder a few days ago. I loved the last set of Firestone M/T's that I had on my Frontier, but didnt have the $$$ to spend on those plus I dont have a lift on the Pathfinder yet. So While looking at options for A/T's, I remembered seeing these at Wal Mart and thinking these look nice. Did some research online and read a lot of good reviews. I love the aggressive tread, very M/T like tread. The price was right so I decided to get them. took them up north to do some fishing last weekend and did well. We'll see in the long run how they do, but so far I like them.

    So a quick question for you guys that have installed these spacers. If you put these on and still use the old original springs, non AC, OME, etc.. Did you get the full lift amount? For example if you bought the 2 inch all around setup, with the old worn out springs did the spacers provide said amount of lift? Or did the old saggy worn springs Prevent the advertised amount of lift? Reason I ask is I was going to replace my springs with just new OEM springs non lift, but ran into some unexpected expenses and now budget is tighter than I had expected. So I would now just be replacing rear shocks and adding spacers into the old struts and old coils. Any input would be appreciated, thanks.
