Hey gang, I've been reading all I can, but I thought it was time to just join and ask!
I recently bought a well cared for 2002 Pathfinder (145k), and I'm working my way through the suspension. Trailing arms (moog), sway bar links (moog) and shocks(gas-a-just) are done. Everything else is original.
Coil springs are next, as the originals are a sagging. Should I pick up the rubber seats
(Nissan?) as well? Perhaps this is a silly question since you can't see my existing setup, so I guess I'm wondering if that's what most of you do when you upgrade the springs.
Speaking of springs, I rarely leave the pavement, but the roads here are probably as bad as they get. Basically, I just want comfort. Moog, OME MD, or something else? I'm thinking OME, but the moogs seem really well priced. There is a lot of talk about lift on this forum, for obvious reasons, but I just want a nice ride. Please don't laugh me out of here, this seems to be the most active pathfinder forum!
While I'm at it, I might as well replace the struts... I read, KYB, but OEM mounts, so just 54320 (strut isolator mount) and 54325(strut bearing)? Anything else? These were the two parts that the dealer recommended, but again, just wondering what's the norm. Sorry, there are a lot of parts listed that make up the whole strut assembly.
If you've read all of this, I really appreciate your time. Any advice would be huge. Thanks!
