Trialsin26 Posted September 20, 2004 Share Posted September 20, 2004 I had my new rear Old Man Emu Springs and Pro Comp Shocks Installed last week and man the ride is 100% better. The springs are alot stiffer and even with 3 people in the back seat it does not bottom out. It also sits about 1 inch to 1.5 inches higher then stock so now there is now more sagging in the rear. Cost wasn't too bad. Springs were 69.00 each (138.00), shock were about 37.00 each (74.00) and installation at my local four wheel shop was 3 12packs (30.00) -alcohol- . So the total was about 242.00. Not to bad for a much better ride and a little lift.

dupersc Posted October 18, 2004 Share Posted October 18, 2004 Nice. What kind of Procomp shocks are they? Are they the MX adjustable? Why did you choose Procomp over others :confused: .... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Trialsin26 Posted October 21, 2004 Author Share Posted October 21, 2004 dupersc, there just the regular pro comp explore shocks, and they suck. The only reason there on there is to hold me over until I get my EMU shocks. The shop I order the EMU shocks from gave me these until they come in, but it’s been 20 days and counting? I think I'm going to replace the pro comp with my factory shocks tomorrow b/c these are making to much noise. Hopefully the factory ones won't top out on regular road rides?

Mark Posted October 21, 2004 Share Posted October 21, 2004 Trailsin 26, Dude, your avatar is HUGE. You need to resize it below 10K. Reckon you'll enjoy the OMEs, though. They're a good bit o' gear. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
herm Posted October 21, 2004 Share Posted October 21, 2004 It took a while for my EMU stuff to arrive - ordered thru Rocky Road in Utah (see my website for links). They told me it may take 30 days, but it came in a bit sooner. I have the Emu coils and shocks on my 97, and are VERY happy with them. I hope the matching shocks resolve your problems. m.

Trialsin26 Posted October 23, 2004 Author Share Posted October 23, 2004 Well, I took those over sized ProComp shocks off the other day and replaced them with my factory shock, until (if ever) my old man emu shocks come in. This think is turning into a mess. If there is one think I learned, is if you want something done right to do it your self. The shop that put my springs and shocks in stripped/cross treaded my lower shock bolt driver side which in welded to the rear axle. Now I can't tighten the nut back on all they way with out it slipping. So I'm going to have to go to Nissan and pay $$$$$$$$ to get a new bolt welded on. At least one good thing, there are no more popping noises. I'll keep you all updated. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
