Hi there,

 

Anyone out there with a good knowledge  of the suspension options available in Australia for the R50? Both for lifts and OE height upgrades? The common wisdom on NPORA seems to be AC, ARB and land rover rear springs if you’re real nifty. From what I’ve seen the market is pretty different over here  (tough dog, EFS, dobinsons even etc.), and it would be great if someone with a some experience could summarise what they know in this thread?

 EFS

https://www.directsuspensions.com.au/products/efs-40mm-lift-kit-for-nissan-pathfinder-r50-11-1995-06-2005 this will give 40 mm above oem height

 

West Coast Suspensions

https://www.directsuspensions.com.au/products/west-coast-suspensions-2in-lift-kit-for-nissan-pathfinder-r50-11-1995-06-2005 this will either give 50 mm or 40 mm above OEM height

 

Bilstein plus Lovells coils

https://www.superspares.com.au/nissan-pathfinder-r50-98-04-bilstein-shock-lovells?gQT=2 50 mm above oem height

 

You have several options for suspension upgrades for the R50 Pathfinder, including brands like Kings, Dobinsons, KYB, Tough Dog, and Iron Man (although Iron Man only offers coils). The website https://www.superspares.com.au/steering-suspension/suspension/ has a good selection of suspension parts. Just enter your registration number and the state you live in, and it will show you compatible options for your Pathfinder. 

I'm planning to go with EFS Elite, which will lift my vehicle 40mm above the OEM height. This shop will assemble the front coil and strut for a small fee, making it easy to just remove the old parts and install the new ones. However, we all know that working on Pathfinders is rarely that straightforward!
