I think the point at the end about them both getting whooped by a Honda Pilot was most telling... Also, as a side note, a new Subaru Legacy has nearly the same clearance as the new pathfinder. And that, for all intents and purposes, is a sedan.

I believe VQ models have larger brakes, hence the fitment issue.

Stioc has that tire size on a 2" AC lift, but had to do fender flare trimming to make them fit with some 1" wheel spacers.

Good to hear, I'll hopefully be doing the bearings this weekend and check for wear then. I suspect it's just a worn bushing.

Maybe look into swapping in some QX4 seats? I know they're leather and powered etc, but definitely are plusher. Otherwise look in junkyards at some Maxima seat frames etc, you never know what'll fit.

If it's a VQ (and I assume VG) it already has 2 cats....

It typically quiets down once the engine's warmed up, but always has a nice, classic VQ hum at low rpms. Sounds very aggressive once I'm in the cams past 3k.

Don't know the exact dimensions, but here's the video:

Right but it's only the strut bearing that I bought as KYB, the little plastic unit. The mounts are 100% nissan, and have no visible issues... I looked all over them top and bottom.

Very cool guys. Just to clarify the grille is definitely vertical on the sides on SEs. I personally prefer my SE grille in black, but that's just me. Hope you find it and if I can help, just holler

I put in a new KYB one, and didn't replace the strut mount, but considering it's factory and has 100k it looked 100% ok.

It only does it over bumps or corners, basically any time the suspension cycles. My struts are about 27k old KYB GR-2s and about a year and a few months old, so I wouldn't suspect them...

I think it should be 100% possible. Especially considering LE/SEs all use the same hoods, lights, and bumpers, meaning the hole for the grille is the same. See if you can get under the hood of the two kinds, they should both be a few screws and some clips.

Quality work, you won't be disappointed.

I have a Magnaflow 18" and LOVE the sound. Great tone at idle and cruising around town, helped mpg a little, and let's you know who's coming when my foot's in it.

I would suggest Meguiar's Online for that question. There are so many leather cleaners out there it's silly, but I suggest first a mild cleaner like Meguiars Quik interior Detailer first, and go up from there. I used to be a Detailer before my office job, and learned an insane amount from Meg's Online. Hope it helps!

Hmm thanks! Would a driveshaft cause issues over bumps specifically?

Looks nice, what'd you paint your bumper with?

So he's asking I remove the front driveshaft with the hubs unlocked? Isn't there another way to tell what's going on?

Looks great! Welcome to NPORA

Thank you, though this problem occurs with the hubs unlocked around 60. I suppose I should have made that more clear. I'm putting in new bearings next week (myself) and seeing If that will fix the issue. Regarding the half-shafts, I have not removed them, as my thinking is that since they aren't spinning with the hubs unlocked, then the issue shouldn't be them. Thank you all for offering so much advice.

Thank you, and correct I have the manual hubs. How would you suggest I check?

I believe 4x4 parts has lowering coils now, why you'd do it I don't know, but to each their own. You could always put on some tires that fill the wheel wells better and take up some of that extra space in the wheel well.

Yes, I have KYB and they seem to be the best option for our rigs. No visible problems with them, and I even just had them out when installing my lift.

Thank you, I'm interested in seeing if that helps. I replaced my struts last year and only have 30k on them, but it's possible.
