mickmutante Posted April 5, 2016 Share Posted April 5, 2016 (edited) I have been reading about lifting options for my 2000 Pathy... For now I have budget for front and rear coil spacers only... I want to do just 1" of lift with the set that cntryboy_88 was selling ( http://www.nissanpathfinders.net/forum/topic/41244-fluerys-spacers/?do=findComment&comment=769299 )... But I still having some doubts with the CV axle.... Does 1" of lifting damage the CV joints.. or boots..? I am not planning to install free hubs on the front wheels.... What if I lift 1.5" on the rear and 1" on the front... Or should I go 1" on the front and rear.? What about handling... I have been using the truck on the city, some times light off road... I am not planing to do rock crawling for now... Thanks. Edited April 5, 2016 by mickmutante Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
97Pathfinderman Posted April 5, 2016 Share Posted April 5, 2016 I had 1.5 in front and 2 in the back and my axles were fine. It drove basically the same as it did before. I have the ac 2" coils now but they ride a lot rougher than the stock springs with a spacer. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rebelord Posted April 10, 2016 Share Posted April 10, 2016 You'll be fine with those spacers. I run ARB OME springs and those spacers also. Front CVs are at max angle, but otherwise fine. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mickmutante Posted April 10, 2016 Author Share Posted April 10, 2016 I have some questions... I know the font camber will be afected, so I bought a set (2 bolts) of Ingalls 14mm camber bolts for the front wheels... What about the rear wheels... Should I buy another set? Which is the "correct" angle for front and rear wheels with the lifting I am planing to do (1" or 2" on the front, 1.5" on the back)? BTW I am using 265/70/R16... Thanks.

pepperjack26 Posted April 10, 2016 Share Posted April 10, 2016 Like Rebelord, I also have the OME lift springs - front/rear. I did use Fleurys 1.5" spacers though - front and back. I sit level. My mechanic did the install - I don't have the tools/facility to do the work. He had to order camber bolts to get my front straight - the set he stocked was not enough adjustment. We don't have a camber adjustment in the rear. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rebelord Posted April 10, 2016 Share Posted April 10, 2016 Might need a second set for the front. I had to use two on each side. Perfect now. Sent from my SM-G920V using Tapatalk 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mickmutante Posted April 11, 2016 Author Share Posted April 11, 2016 (edited) One more question... Which is the camber angle for a 1" or 2" lifted truck? Should i go for 0 degres? As i mention earlier i use the pathy at the city... Sometimes some light offroad... Edited April 11, 2016 by mickmutante Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mickmutante Posted April 11, 2016 Author Share Posted April 11, 2016 Nevermind... i found the camber specs at the factory service manual... SU section page SU-14 http://www.nicoclub.com/FSM/Pathfinder/2000_Pathfinder/su.pdf Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
