    That will be KYB struts
  2. R50JR
    Unfortunately they have been discontinued completely and cannot be found anywhere. You can replace them with KYB.

    Sad news. RIP

    Get 8 of 54368-0W02A. You can cut the tips if they are too long. @hawairish and I did this for mine.

    Did you tighten the nuts once the suspension was loaded on the ground?

    Looks great, but the lit 4wd light is definitely not a glitch. If you can’t scan the codes yourself then pass on it. It could be a very costly repair if something is wrong.

    They do seem promising. My tire rubs the rear shock when fully tucked, so this might work like a bump stop to limit flex.

    Have a look at this company. You could also search on google for "rubber spring spacer". There might be cheaper but similar products. https://www.superspringsinternational.com/products/

    The cracks on the fan are common. All of us have/had them but I have never seen a fan fail from the cracks. You definitely do not need to drain any coolant to replace the fan. Just remove the bottom shroud and the fan should come out.

    You didn’t offend me. I could buy the 25 sets and sit on them. I could even make a few dollars if I wanted to resell them….but I won’t. The point is, why even post that you won’t share where you bought them? If you weren’t going to say anything until you secured more for yourself, why share? That’s what children do. It’s a bad look especially on a thread where guys are actively looking for them (I’m not). You can be what ever A-hole you please just don’t bring it around here. If you look around, members on here like to help each other out. Obviously, you won’t add anything in terms of R50 discoveries or knowledge, but at least be thoughtful and considerate of others.

    No idea where Steve pulled those from but they have been discontinued for a while. I'd rather import tough dog struts at this point. Tough dog struts have a higher perch (actually lifts 30-35mm) so a larger tire can be fitted and they're still manufactured for the same price as OME. Also, people like you shouldn't be part of a car community. Your selfish post/mentality helped absolutely no one. I get that these aren't available but some guys on here are looking for them and by letting them know where you purchased yours would help them tremendously. In the end, it seems the only reason you even mentioned where you got yours is because they are no longer available so no one else could also enjoy them. Next time keep your childness out of it and communicate like a mature, respectable adult.

    It's been a while....I'll chime in with what little I know. The auto transfer case still spins the front driveshaft even if the hubs are unlocked. The vibration could be caused by this on your vehicle. The best CV axles are OEM as they have the greatest operating angle. The Napa axles are rebadged Tracmotive. I've also read about them failing. Do you have VDC on your model? I believe the model with traction control uses the abs tone ring for more than abs, so you may have issues with that (if vdc)

    OME struts are discontinued. Bilstein are said to exist but I haven’t seen anything, even locally. KYB are the easiest to source and replace. Go with KYB.

    This is great information you have compiled, but honestly the majority of newer pathfinder owners can't differentiate between "there", "their", and "they're". Almost all R50s being modified at the moment are guys that want the biggest tires, subframe drop, and LR springs. The pandemic really boosted the "off-road" and "overland" scenes which also increased the price of capable SUVs, most notably the 4Runner. Naturally, anyone that can't afford a Toyota bought the next cheapest vehicle.

    Your post is a little difficult to follow along. Are you from WA- Washington in the US or from WA- Western Australia? KYB shocks and struts are perfect for normal driving and some off-roading. Unless you have a source for new OME struts, you can't buy them since they are discontinued. Perhaps you forgot what you're driving, but your QX4 isn't a prerunner.
