Did you have the kit that included shocks ??

We're a little biased :)

Ain't nothing a titan swapped frontier or Xterra can't roll over 😎

I, for one, am happy for a biased co-op as yourselves 🥰

The 05-15 Xterra, 05-15 Pathfinder and the 05-20 Frontier are some of the most kick ass Nissans ever built. I just wish Nissan had admitted fault in the S.M.O.D Transmission Failures and just bit the bullet. They wouldve retained so many buyers because of confidence in the brand. Instead, they left tens of thousands of people with $30,000 Yard Ornaments. Too bad. I love the VQ40DE, the RE5R05A and all 3 vehicles theyre put in. I am currently rebuilding a VQ40 because previous owner neglected maintenance, resulting in SLUDGE and OIL CARBON BUILDUP that ruined the rings, timing components and rod/main bearings. Ive done timing jobs on both (really simple job) and the Xterra has 330,000 miles and uses oil. So when i rebuild the engine that came out of my 06 Pathfinder, it will go to the Xterra. Then ill rebuild the one that came out. And ill have a spare VQ40. I just love and adore these motors. A truly spectacular machine.

They make em hard to modify

Yes me too dam it

You guys have any luck finding a control arm?

Titan swap

SPC control arm

Get SPC. When I lifted my Xterra Rock Auto was selling the SPC arms under the memo tech supreme name. It looks like they have them listed as Dorman now. Look for the adjustable ones. The pictures show SPC arms. Best price I've seen on them. They will work, but you might have to trim the lip of the coil bucket slightly to clear the SPC ball joint.

Glad we could help.

We have a RCKilla kit install video.

If you were to look at your coil buckets, I guarantee paint is missing from them hitting a lot since you take it off road. Just because you don’t hear it, doesn’t mean it isn’t happening

@@daywalker4029 I’m mainly talking about the violent clunk you get. I’m sure it is but at such low speeds it’s not as noticeable.

@@TVCColin yeah i have 2" spacers and its fine unless you really go fast over large holes/ drop offs.

I got the mild 1.5" spacers for my 2023 Frontier. Haven't installed them yet. Do you think I'll have issues with the 1.5"?

People on the regular still deny having CBC while running a spacer and factory arm. Gotta get the word out every way we can!

From an engineer’s standpoint, the design works as it should. Engineers don’t design parts with modifications like lift kits in mind.

@@daywalker4029 true, but it doesnt answer the question, why did they decide to do it differently than the commonly used solution?

@@mtnbound2764 not my question to answer. would have to ask an engineer. they're still using them now so they must assume it's still fine. they've had 16 years to change it and haven't.

@@daywalker4029So they are still using this same design on the 2023 and 2024 trucks?

@@PreparedOverlander yes. the suspension is unchanged from 2005 essentially

For sure! Good choice :)

@@AlldogsOffroadCoop thanks you guys have been good to work with you always answer all my questions in the chat and I appreciate it!

So you still here the CDC but just at a lower volume correct?

Correct - depending on height. Past 2.5" is where you can really start to notice it.

we have a cam bolt lockout kit that works great with the SPC UCA's that will stop your alignment from slipping at the LCA

the only way to get CBC with a coilover is if it's longer than a stock travel coilover like a 5100. our fox extended travel kits cause CBC because of the actual physical length.

no. adding a spacer on top of the coilover physically lengthens the entire piece and that is what causes CBC

Great thanks.

no, the titan arm is longer. also the titan arm has less clearance than a factory frontier/xterra arm. titan's experience CBC at 1.5" of lift.

We have two options. Dobinsons or OME. There isn't much available for the Pathfinders unfortunately.

i would assume if you look at your coil buckets, you have marks from CBC

@@AlldogsOffroadCoop I did. Nothing.

Its possible for sure

Sure! Just have to call the shop and arrange something :)

it's not overblown. there's many cases of the upper control arm separating and causing major failure.

@@AlldogsOffroadCoop well, thats just my opinnion based on my experience, regardless, I love what you guys are doing for the nissan community and I hope to one day upgrade to a lift from you guys.

Have you ever used bump tops to reduce the CDC noise?

@@A.lowkee.savage i have bump stops on the up and lower control arms, it helps reduce the impact, but its not really a fix.

lol top secret

it will work for that

in rare circumstances, the edge of the bucket may have to be trimmed to clear the ball joint cup. it's very rare though.

Do you have the Rough Country UCAs? Apparently they're great UCAs for an inexpensive price. I'm talking about the RC Titan Swap UCAs though. I don't know much about their regular length UCAs, but I imagine they're decent.

correct. a 2" lift with Bilstein doesn't effect the overall length of the shock like a spacer.

@@AlldogsOffroadCoopsick thank you! I appreciate yall!

Can’t find shit for my 2015 either

That's because new pathfinders are soccer mom mall crawlers, thank Nissan. Lol

Lincoln, NE

Not sure... We don't condone spacer kits either.

Thank you very much!

Nee need if your running 33s. If your running 35s you need to regear

if you have a manual transmission then 4.56s work, 4.10s if you're x has an auto

This video here is an rckilla install - kzfaq.info/get/bejne/aqp7qLJy3L-7hac.html Yes, the 5100 would be very similar in clearance to the half inch spacer. It's about .2" longer than the 4600.

The factory arm is stamped sheet metal and is most commonly known to break in half. We've also seen ball joints ripped out of the socket, but this is less common.

A video like this one? kzfaq.info/get/bejne/f9R1pKthmZ3Hc30.html

Thanks. Will check em out

most people run the 285 size tire so 285/75/16 or 285/70/17

you need more than just upper and lower control arms to titan swap, but no you cannot run a spacer and make it work. it requires a dedicated length coilover

With factory shocks you should not experience cbc. If you used 5100's up front with the spacer plate you would. Keep in mind if you change your shocks down the road for 5100's you'd need high clearance uca's too. :)

Thanks for the quick response.

@@AlldogsOffroadCoop Why is there no CBC with the RCKilla lift which is 2" but there is CBC with a 2" spacer lift?

@@papapear4954 the video explains why but when you use a spacer, it physically lengthens the shock assembly. a lift spring does not

Correct, if you run a high clearance aftermarket UCA you should clear

@@AlldogsOffroadCoop I have your 2 and a half inch lift kit already and I just want another 1.2 inch on the front, so I am guessing my next upgrade would be your spacer and UCA. Thanks.

huh? a simple high clearance UCA takes care of CBC with spacers. no need to replace everything else. nothing needs replaced if you run a traditional spring lift.

Aftermarket UCAs to start. We have some that would clear the coil bucket as seen in the video.

@@AlldogsOffroadCoop so I can keep my spacers? Will those UCA work for sure suspension change?

you will only find them here. you can use a freight forwarder to order a pair and have the company ship them to you.

We got swag!

1/2 may not cause issues but any spacer over 1" will cause CBC. no truck is immune to it after 1"

we will soon!

they wouldn't be necessary from a coil bucket contact standpoint since you aren't reaching the length to cause it with the 6112s. they will help with alignment though as they have additional caster built into them. we use moog ball joints that do come with a grease zerk.

@@AlldogsOffroadCoop awesome. Thanks for the reply. Probably going to get them anyway.

extended ball joints are a bandaid fix.

@@AlldogsOffroadCoop can you explain?

They’re all identical. Companies will say they won’t fit because they never tested them on the vehicle.

Would the RC kill a kit for 2015 frontier work on 2015 pathfinder ?

@@mattacedo no, it would not

No. The spacer we used in the video was a rough country spacer. You will get it just as much as any other Nissan.

@@AlldogsOffroadCoop so how can I get this shit leveled without it

@@jessefenner8673 a lift coilover will get you the height you need without causing CBC. also if you plan on using the truck as a truck at any time, leveling will just leave you nose high if you put anything in the bed. rake is a functional piece to a suspension

there is no way around CBC with spacers. no magic tricks that can make it go away haha. coilovers are the same regardless of side.

@@AlldogsOffroadCoop thats what i thought too, but almost every install video i watch they all switch the coil overs left to right...also i see lift struts (Ranchos) that have different part numbers from left to right :/ little confused by it

@@jaredhayward2323 the drop bracket lift for the frontier requires the tie rods to be switched. maybe that's what you're seeing.

@@AlldogsOffroadCoop nope, was definitely struts SF creation was where i first saw it...maybe it was just for that particular lift i dunno just thought it was weird since they aren't side specific 🤷‍♂️

This is incorrect. A lift coil does not create cbc.

Many people will argue against this, but whether you have a spacer that is 2” long, or a lift coil that is 2” longer than stock, you still have the same geometry if using stock parts. Nothing but salesmanship would change that. So why mechanically would there not be CBC with a lift coil?

@@TheRealJeffreyEpstein1953 because a lift coil like what we use with a Bilstein 5100 or the Koni’s does not physically change the length of the shock. You can use our springs on the factory 4600s also and not have CBC. The coilover length is what causes CBC. So when you stack a 1.5” tall spacer on top of a coilover, you are causing CBC since you are physically changing the length of the coilover assembly.

@@AlldogsOffroadCoop I think I understand. Thank you for the explanation.

it can cause the upper ball joint to come out of the control arm.

@@AlldogsOffroadCoop common?

@@1393floyd it can be if it hits hard enough over a period of time.

you need camber bolts for the lower control arms to adjust the alignment to not wear the tires.

@@AlldogsOffroadCoop thank you for your instant reply guys I am wondering do I need them front and back Thank you CrouchOz

Max you can do suspension, is 3” on factory geometry. We sell plenty of our fox extended travel kits.

no, the suspension is identical on a 2wd

our 1/2" spacer on top of 5100s can cause CBC so a 2" spacer will cause CBC

@@AlldogsOffroadCoop somehow I got lucky. I have a Pro-4X, but that shouldn't make a difference. My UCAs clear the coil buckets when drooping.

@@AlldogsOffroadCoop well, you were correct. I do have coil bucket contact. It was in a spot I couldn't see. I'm going to Titan Swap in the future anyway, so no big deal. It's nothing that can't be pounded out.

still running the risk of CBC.
