cfuqua23 Posted February 1, 2017 Share Posted February 1, 2017 Hey all, I just recently purchased a 99 Pathfinder SE, can someone please tell me what options I have for lifting this bad boy. All I've seen is the Old Man EMU kit...any suggestions?? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
XPLORx4 Posted February 1, 2017 Share Posted February 1, 2017 Your options are limited to suspension lifts only. The unibody Pathfinder cannot use body lifts (since there's no "body" which is separate from the frame"). Depending on how much lift you want, you have several options, in order of least to most expensive. Spacer lift (.5"-2") Coil spring lift (1.0"-2.5") Subframe drop (4") Subframe drop combined with coil spring lift (4"-6") What are your goals for lifting? Looks only? Off-road performance? Want to fit larger tires? The lift you choose is a function of how you plan to use the vehicle. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cfuqua23 Posted February 1, 2017 Author Share Posted February 1, 2017 Goals for lifting are just overall off road performance for driving on trails in the mountains etc and for a nice overall smooth ride. I don't plan on do extreme rock climbing or intense mudding. Thanks for the response! Connor Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
johann_peralta Posted February 7, 2017 Share Posted February 7, 2017 If you are looking for a popular lift that keeps the car mostly stock and has a fair ride, try 4x4parts.com they sell both lift coils, and lift spacers. I would recommend. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LittleFR Posted February 8, 2017 Share Posted February 8, 2017 Depends on your budget. Spacers are cheapest. A combination of spacers and Springs is how most go. Sub Frame Drop if you want to save CVs and have lots of time and a little money. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
