So are there other coils out there any of you have used for lifting your R50 other than the normal OME,IronMan,AC and the Jeep WJ rear used coil set up also including the drops? I have heard of old style bronco springs that could be used for the front? Then I see the 1" adaptors that fit on top of the front struts and I have also seen longer tube adaptors that fit on top of the front struts? Are there adaptors that a person can just add to the factory coils to get the lift each of us desires? This site AFCO I found has quite a few adaptors in all sizes and coils? It looks like it could be possible to use Maybe some of those parts?Maybe not? I am no expert on lifting the pathfinders and alot of you have got your lifts and know more about them from trial and error.The easy way is if I want a 2" lift that would stand even I would want to buy the AC COILS and a set of those 1" adaptors that go on top of the strut right? My problem is I cant see spending $180 for 2 coils and $100 or whatever they are for a couple of those 3 holed spacers for the front coils.Has everyone on this site just went with the expensive set ups because it was easier to spend the money instead of finding other ways? I am just wondering.Maybe it is the way to go? All the brain work has been done so pay the piper and make it easy? Sorry so long guys I am thinking too hard.

Surfing again for alternative parts to aid in building our lifts and found this site just in case.If you come up with any ideas from all of these parts offered please post them here. http://www.afcoracing.com/springs_info.html

What was the part number of the rear KYB shocks you installed? Thanks!

Its sitting just right! I need a deal like you got!

I myself would never use Pennzoil.At our dealership many of the motors that had to be torn down that had alot of extra sludge in them you could look at their oil change sticker and see that they were using Pennzoil.On the Fram oil filters so right about not using.When I worked in Denver a Nissan Dealership we had a Fram filter cut apart and a Nissan filter cut apart on the counter and whatever Fram uses for its filtering is any cardboard they can find it looks like? I have opened many to see the cardboard had jap writing on the paper.The nissan filters are the way to go! Ask your Nissan Parts Advisor to give you a deal on buying 5 or more and see if you will mark them down a little?I always did for the customer.

Yes the Moog # 81302 coils are the stock replacement for the front R50.

Here are the specs for the Stock front coils # 81302 that Federal -Mogul sent me. Here are the specifications for the 81302 coil spring: Bar Diameter_______________0.609” Inside Diameter_____________5.870” Free Height Reference_______14.8125” Test Height________________8.50” Test Load to get from Free Height to Test Height___1,121.0 lbs. To compress one additional inch you need 180.0 lbs. End 1____________________PT-150 End 2____________________Tang. From The Federal-Mogul Aftermarket Product Support Team

Did you use the front and rear Jeep coils for your lift? Or are you talking just rear

Great and readable. Now to find the correct front and rear sets for the lifts needed.

Here is the answer from Federal-Mogul on the Coil Springs: Kurt, the list of coil spring specification that we sent you is the only published list that there is, if you have a couple of spring numbers and submit a request for specifications, I will see if they are available and send them to you, here are the specification for spring number 81115: Bar Diameter_____________0.515” Inside Diameter___________5.060” Free Height Ref.__________14.3125” It takes 678 lbs to compress the spring from free height to test height (8.50”), to compress the spring an additional 1” you need an additional 120 lbs.. End 1 & End 2____________Square

Is that the MOOG # 9638 from the list I got for the front or rear coils and 2" over stock? or.. I did send the guy from Federal-Mogul an email asking for the list of all the rear coil #s aee what he says about the missing #81115. That Moog # 9638 are $64 for the pair from Rock Auto

It is all the guy sent me.Not that important anyway. Dimension
