Very well done video! I just hit 10 years and 87,000 miles on my Pro4x and have been looking at the same setup. Thanks!

It’s a good setup. I’m happy with it.

Would be nice to add the extra rubber hardware in the description

Couple of things I suggest and also one that Bilstein suggests. Bilstein - wait to tighten and torque the bottom bolt with the weight of the vehicle on it. I put the jack under the lower ball joint and lifted the suspension before torquing, Bilstein says, with the tire on the ground. Loosening the upper ball joint gives room for the taller height. Leaving the top nuts loosened helps with alignment of the bottom bolt.

Good tip!

If you have the other tire in the air as well, it takes the tension off the sway bar and makes it a little easier to get out.

I own a 2012 pro4 x with 92,000 miles on it, I put the 5100 on front and back at about 45,000 because the factory shocks were garbage (both sets) thank god for warranties. I love these shocks the ride is awesome and feels solid. Great shocks…

Yeah it’s definitely an improvement!

The last two times I've put these shocks on my Titan they have bottomed out way too easily over dips on the road.

Did you install 5100 on the rear so all 4 match. I used the 5100 front and rear on my 2013 Ram 1500 4x4 and they were awesome, set my front to 2 inches.. Truck rode great.

@SledsandGear 9 ай бұрын

No, I used the 4600s? on the back.

@stevenpeterson7234 9 ай бұрын

Awesome video man!! Bilstien all the way. I'm going with the 6100's tho. IMO the 5100's are to small and I feel like that can't really handle the weight of the Titan.

@SledsandGear 9 ай бұрын

Hmmm. I didn’t know there were 6100 s?

@stevenpeterson7234 9 ай бұрын

@@SledsandGear Yeah, they have 6100's foe the Nissan Titan. I'm going the 6100's in the front and 5160 on the rear here soon

What size tires did you use? I've been running this set up with 1" blocks in the rear and love it.

@SledsandGear Жыл бұрын

Stock tire size. 275 65 17’s I think.

Did you need camber bolts with this set up for the alignment?

Did you need to do the rear to level it out as well? If you did where did you put the rear? Which level on the strut?

@SledsandGear Жыл бұрын

The rear shocks are non adjustable.

Do you have the part numbers for the springs from Amazon? Thanks!

@SledsandGear Жыл бұрын

Moog 81194 are the springs I used.

@joncross7822 Жыл бұрын

If you go standard struts are they easier to install?

@SledsandGear Жыл бұрын

Possibly, but not dramatically easier

@campman1 Жыл бұрын

I think what you are saying is if you buy the whole assembly with the spring installed then yes it's just in and out.

@brockcamper2281 how would I know if my coilovers are bad? I have a 2012 nissan titan sv 4x4. About to change my kyb struts and shocks to bilstein and I'm clueless if I need the assembled ones with the coilovers or without. I'm at 138k miles the shocks and struts have been changed once from factory to kyb at 40k miles.

Be a lot easier if you lifted the other side take pressure of the sway bar
