- Going over the process of installing a lift on my 1998 Nissan Pathfinder SE (R50 platform) with 2" spacers from SFCreation sfcreation.com/
Wheels are Pro Comp 51-5883
Tires are BFGoodrich K02 in 31 x 10.5 x 15
That is are mint looking R50 Pathfinder, I own one myself I bought it new 24 years ago and it's still going strong that VG33E engine is super reliable.
I did 2" AC springs with an extra 1" spacer up front on my '96 . Bilstien 5100's all new front brakes with Powerstop rotors . Steel wheels and 32" STT's . Fun little truck !
Did you do the subframe drop for that much lift up front? I'm having issues with just 1.5" spacers
@@Ty-tie_FTW no sub frame drop . Did you use AC coil springs ? It did eat wheel bearings .
Nice video..no bullshits.straight to the content.No other video on internet demonstrating pathfinder spacer installation..Thank you
I never feel closer to death than when I compress springs.
Great video, thank´s!!! And beautiful truck. I have a 1997. Saludos desde Argentina.
Damn your pathy is so damn clean.
Great video. Thanks for going into such detail about the process + adding the tire parameters.
thanks for watching!
@@rhino5ohh Where did you get the fender flares?
@@guyfawkesuThe1 They come factory on the SE trim. I did paint them with SEM Trim Black though.
That's clean man 👌 currently trying to do a spring lift on my 03qx4
Great video I’m going to buy the same thing also the control arm crosslink 🤙🏾
Thanks for watching!
Good work. Decent noob mechanic tips included that might save folks work. Recently did my struts, and will basically be redoing for the 1" sf kit. Wanted tips for the rear .... but I think you gave enough to make it easier. Got fresh oem springs for the rear and am fitting 285/75r16 (33") on steelies .... trimming plastic and cutting metal/fixing rust. Eventually steel winch bumper by son and me. Probably hubs and welded front. Lokka rear (Tyler) 🤟 ... anyway ... great video
Thanks for watching
Did you end up needing the longer alignment bolts? Or did the stock ones work?
Great informed video
Beautiful Pathfinder, the vehicle looks great with that lift. I personally would have bought new struts to go with the spacers but nice work nonetheless.

Clean rig man
Nice looking truck
Did you need alignment bolts for the rear Aswell as the front?
Nice Truck 👍
I got a 97 what size rim and tire was on it before the lift
Clean build, I just bought myself a 1999 pathfinder. When lifting the car do you recommend removing the mud-flaps?
Are those tires good? I read a lot of reviews that they make a lot of noise and cause the ailment to go off a lot!
One question, if you install 2.5 inches, would you have to make any modifications?
great video
Thanks for watching
how did you get the stud out on the top plate?
Good video, thank you... I wish they could make those spacers in black..
Supreme Suspension has black ones
are you running stock size wheels?
great tutorial! Did a lift on a 02 on my channel :D
Hey I have a 2001 Nissan pathfinder and like your rims and wondering where u get them?
do you have to get an alignment after?
very nice man! did you paint your fenders? or you bought it new?
Anyone know if 265.75.16 will require a lift on this model pathfinder
Hello! Just wanted to ask what are your tires and wheel specs? I really like your set up and how the pathfinder stands. Just got a 99 LE and was wondering if I can use the stock wheels with those tires and probably go with those spacers too. Thank you for the information and I will be following your progress 😊
Thanks for watching. My wheels are Pro Comp part number 51-5883. 15x8 with 3.75 backspacing. The tires are BFG K02 31x10.5x15. I'm not sure if you can use the stock wheels or not. The tires will likely fit, but the stock wheels are probably not 8 inches wide so it might look goofy. You're better off picking up a set of aftermarket wheels. The pro comp ones I have are very cheap at $62 per wheel.
Any other p finder updates?
Great video. Do you have issues with your cv axles? Does the axle angle give you any problems?
Im afraid the axle might be OK for use on the road but off road would probably rip tear or blow the axles.
Thanks for watching. So far no issues. Ive done some minor off-roading but nothing serious. The CV axles are not at much of an angle with these spacers so I dont think there will be any problems.
A lot more rust than my Wash. State pathfinder. They had a recall on those East Coast pathfinders. Strut mount recall.
Just take the nut out of the panhard at the axle. It is super easy and the bar pops right off. Anyways, I put their 1.5" front spacers on mine and the passenger axle is slinging grease everywhere now and the axle is binding. Maybe I won't be lifting the front of mine after all. Be easier to just remove them and go back to stock height in the front.
Hey quick question you never explained what those front camber alignment kit was for and which ones you bought
tyler 208 does a video explaining all of this
Are those the OEM coils and shocks with the lift kit on? If so how are they holding up? Considering this for my 2001 R50.
Yes they were the 22 year old OEM shocks/struts/springs. They held up great with the spacers, especially considering their age. I have since removed the spacers and went with a complete old man emu suspension setup.
Excelente video por favor hacer posible leer lo que dice en español me interesa mucho los videos de la Nissan Pathfinder 2 generación
La pregunta es si al colocar los suplementos para levantar la camioneta Pathfinder hay que hacer algo más ? Esto no afecta en las crucetas u otros elementos?
Gracias por compartir sus conocimientos
Intentaste hacerlo? Ya yo compré el kit de espaciadores estoy esperando que me lleguen pero no sé si además tengo que comprar algo más. El dijo algo de ajustar camber pero no lo mostró en el video.
Great guide video,hope to do similar on my '99 E50 Elgrand(JDM MPV relative to Pathfinder)will probably fabricate steel spacers cos I can and enjoy the challenge of making stuff😉😉what were the adjustment bolts you talked about at start?🤔
Its called a camber bolt. Its just a bolt that replaces the factory strut-to-spindle bolt. It has a lobe on it and when you turn the bolt it moves the strut in order to change the camber.
How do I get a socket on the bolt closest to the inside? Even though the spacers are threaded I'm not sure how to torque them on either side.. 🤔
Did you figure this out, because we are having the same problem… we even tried fabricating our own tool (cut and weld wrench)
Hey man, great video! Putting my SF Creation spacer lift on tomorrow. I'm wondering what wheels you are using? What is the offset on them and did you have to use wheel spaces to get 3.75" backspacing?
Thanks for watching. The exact wheels are Pro Comp 51-5883. They are built with a 3.75 inch backspacing so there is no need to use any spacers.
What size tires are those? I am trying to figure out the largest size I can fit on my stock ride height 02 Pathy LE. The original size is a 245/65R17 tire for my vehicle.
31 x 10.5 x 15
Where would I order these in Australia
I have a question. I want to raise mine a couple of inches. and the question here would be. Can I just buy that kit you have to be able to lift the truck without having to change the shock and the spring?
and if I want to put the shock and the bigger springs. So going up from 2 to 3 inches I no longer need that kit?
Yes and yes
What offset does rims have?
I have a 98 as well. Mine doesn’t have those fender flares. Any idea where I could get those? Are yours stock because it is the manual trim package and mine is auto so it didn’t come with those or are yours aftermarket?
The fender flares are stock, but its not because it has a manual transmission.
The flares on pre-facelifted R50 Pathfinders (1996 - early 1999) came on the Sport (SE) trim pathfinders only. If yours is a base (XE I believe) or Limited (LE), that is likely the reason why yours does not have flares.
This thing is sick
Excelente video
Lo estaba buscando para hacer ese trabajo en mi Pathfinder
Ojalá se pudiera leer lo que dice es Español

Do you need longer shocks for the 2 inch lift???
Factory shocks will be fine
Where did you get that rubber mat in the back of your pathfinder? Great video
Thanks for watching. Its an OEM Nissan mat. I believe it came with the vehicle when new. I'm the second owner so I'm not entirely sure it came from the factory but it does say nissan on it.
I always wanted my first car to be a 4x4 and I was finally able to buy a 1998 Pathfinder. But the problem is that I live in Mexico and I have not been able to find parts to modify it.
How long are those bolts for the fronts and what is the metric?? Thanks
Sorry I'm not sure the exact size, they came with the spacers!
Спасибо за видео.
Have you blown a CV axel yet? did the same install an my 01 snd blew 2 before I removed the spacers
I've sold the pathfinder, but never had an issue with CVs. Might have to do with the size of your spacers if they were larger than 2"
Are you getting any rubs on the calipers with your 15 in?
No rubbing at all. I believe the face-lifted R50 pathfinders (99.5 - 04) have slightly different front calipers and you may get rubbing on those ones. Don't quote me on that though.
Great video thanks for uploading. I just picked up a 2004 and I'm looking to put a 2 1/2" front and a 2" on the rear. I ordered my spacers from Supreme Suspensions I used them before and they offer a real nice quality product. However I see that sfcreations offers a 3" lift for a little more. I might order the 3" and put it on just to see how it looks and send back the others. Has anybody else used the three inch lift?
No I haven’t but I just ordered the 2.5 inch lift kit off Amazon. Pretty new to this so I’m not sure if running the stock 245 65 r17 AT tires with it is going to affect the car negatively or not. Considering getting some 31 inch tires(265 70 r17 i think) but I’m not sure if that’ll rub or not
@@jakerubcich4211 got the lift on looks good and I was thinking about the same on the tires.
Will this lift work for a 2003 Infinity QX4?
Chad Hargreaves yes there the same truck basically
Nice job man great video👍🏾, but while if I were u while I was in the I would've changed the shocks
New shocks and struts are next, just wanted to give these spacers a try with the stock suspension. Thanks for watching 👍
@@rhino5ohh oh ok,
Np
Im waiting for that video too bro, i just take a 96 model. Are you think do sometime with the engine or performance?
Did u completly remove ur sway bars? Or get new ones to fit
Neither...I disconnected the sway bar at the end links to install the springs in the rear, and to take out the struts in the front. But I didn't have to completely remove them nor buy new ones.
Can I asked what size tires you have on your Pathfinder?
31x10.5x15
Got a 01 trying to change my struts and springs and add a spacer
Nice, go for it. Its pretty straightforward
Was the oem brake lines long enough at full droop? Great video by the way
Thanks for watching. The OEM brake lines are long enough, no modificaiton necessary.
I have a 96, but I live in Arizona so mine has no rusty bolts. When I replaced my struts, the bolts came off with ease. I have been thinking of getting SF creation spacers. I'm wondering if I should get replacement springs too. The original springs may have a bit more sag then ideal. How were your springs? Are they factory original?
Not to disrupt someone else’s comment section, but I don’t recommend spacers for off-road use. I have a video about it on my channel and nissanpathfinders.net has tons of info as well
My springs are factory original. The vehicle only has 105k on it, however the springs/shocks/struts are 22 years old at this point. While the suspension doesn't sag, it still is rather sloppy. I'll be doing a full suspension eventually. Just wanted to give these spacers a try. I'm happy with them. Like I mentioned in the video they're cheap. I don't do any serious off-roading.
@@rhino5ohh thanks for the reply. SF Creations was having a sale and I bought the "2 inch all around" kit. I did a 2 1/2 lift on my 4Runner, this should be about right for the Pathfinder. I got camber bolts on order...
@@208Tyler thanks for the reply. This is actually my 2nd Pathfinder, I've lurked around those forums quite a bit in past and present. My previous Pathfinder was an R51, now I have this R50.
@@rhino5ohh Agreed, ditching the spacers for a proper set of springs will improve not only your ride quality, but also load handling. I immediately noticed that when I made the switch.
I can do this on my Infiniti qx4 2000
Please reply 😔
you can, exact same platform
Saludos tengo una pathfinder VG33E del 2000 donde puedo comprar repuestos nissan en EEUU
Didnt catch the alignment bolt part?
Apologies for leaving that out. They're bolts that replace the factory strut-to-knuckle bolts (the bolts im removing at 3:22). The part of the bolt that sits inside of the knuckle has a lobe (in other words it's not a perfect circle) so that when you turn it clockwise/counter-clockwise, the lobe pushes the knuckle away from or into the strut, giving you a few degrees +/- of camber that you normally wouldnt be able to get with the factory bolts.
Hey bro. Can you please tell me what color that is? It looks amazing!
Thanks, its called Neptune Blue. Its the factory color.
Thing is mint got an 02 I'm working on doing a spacer lift too
Nice, hope the video helps you when doing yours. Thanks for watching!
What wheels are you running and are you using wheel spacers
Pro Comp 51-5883 wheels, no spacer needed
Did you need a larger driver train for the larger tires? I have 99 Infiniti qx4 (JR50) if I'm not mistaken it's the same lift kit.
Nope, no drivetrain changes needed.
@@rhino5ohh nice. I'm looking to put 31s on but I need to lift it first.
@@rhino5ohh nice. I'm looking to put 31s on but I need to lift it. I'm looking to get and inch or so to lift more between diff and the ground.
@@rhino5ohh nice. I'm looking to put 31s on but I need to lift it. I'm looking to get an inch or so of lift more between the diff and the ground.
jaggedtoothfang 31s will fit without a lift. That’s what I have on in this video prior to lifting it. Just make sure you have the right backspacing. My wheels are 15x8 with 3.75 inch backspacing. Tires are 31x10.50x15
Ortalama kaç dolar bu araba?
did you change the stabilizer links? or the originals ones are ok?
The original ones were ok at the time I filmed this video.
@@rhino5ohh I ve been trying to scan the car but when I use the obd2 and scan it it has no connection to any unit. When I use the obd1, my scan tool doesnt even power up. I'm suspecting the ecu might be the problem. What do you think?
Still own this ?
Had you considered changing out struts at the same time?
Pleased with results ?
What is the model of those wheels they look sweet
Thanks. They're Pro Comp part number 51-5883
That is one clean vehicle. Gives me something to admire as I rebuild my 2001. I got it from my wife who wanted to leave it with the infinity dealer. Oh but when I put some work in it she parked the infinity in the garage and back in my truck she went. It’s not fair project this month power steering. Gives me something to do when she comes home whining about what is wrong with it. 😒
Is there a specific torque spec for the tower strut bolts?
yes there is, but I'm unsure of the number. Its usually a big number for those sort of bolts. something like 100 - 120 ft lbs. I just tightened them down really well with a breaker bar.
Great, thank you. Also i was breaking my head whether how should i put the spacer in. With the lip of spacer up? Or should i put it with lip down. I would be really afraid if spring came off.
this tires what measure are LT265/70R16/E ???
30.6 in
What bump stops are you running, can you post a link
As far as I know they are factory bumpstops. I didnt change them and the suspension was completely stock before I added these spacers
Awsome car man.. where did you get the fender flares from i need it in my car so bad!
Appreciate it. They are the OEM fender flares on the SE trim pathfinders. I repainted them black though.
@@rhino5ohh its hard to find oem flares now, where did you get em
@@osmangazi-313 They were on the vehicle when I purchased it. It was very well-kept, got it from the original owner
Installed 2.5 front 2 rear and after I got it "aligned" there was a lot of clunking sounds coming from the front? Any ideas anyone? Also it wasn't really aligned very good the wheels are kinda butterfly
Check your CVS
@@Notinserviceij thanks, it was the struts, I installed the wrong ones
Will this be about the same for a 2001 pathfinder
yes, should be the same process
I have 31.10.50 bfgs on my stock 98 Pathfinder, and they don't rub at all. No trimming and no lift I think it's your wheel offset
Hey man! I seriously just bought that same spacer set up and the same wheels because of your video. Putting them on my QX4! Could you tell me your tire spec?
Awesome man, glad my vid was helpful.. The tires are BFGoodrich K02's in size 31x10.5x15
@@rhino5ohh with the lift, do you think 31.6” tires would be too big? Lots or rubbing?
How did y’all take the 3 bolts off the strut ?
It’s glued on there
@@gimmeat0wel That's interesting, nothing should be glued. Maybe there's just loctite on the bolts or its a nylon lock nut? I assume you're talking about the 3 bolts in the engine bay that hold the strut to the vehicle. Either way, you should be able to break it free with a regular socket and rachet. Might have to use a breaker bar to get them loose but they really shouldn't be that tight
damn son, you dont fuck around
Класс👍👍👍
Great video. Would love to see some more videos with your pathfinder. Are the spacers still doing well? Didn't break your CV's? What manual locking hubs are those? thanks!
I have actually recently taken them out and did a full old man emu suspension. its about the same lift as i had with the spacers. No issues with CVs. They are Warn manual locking hubs
Aligment bolts??? Can you do a video about them. How to install it..
Nice video by the way...
@@rhino5ohh ah right on, I just got my sf creations kit in. eventually may put the Landrover rear springs in but ive spent too much money on this beast lately! need to do trailing arms at some point
You should have removed the panard rod on the back end of the diff ,that will let the diff sink all the way down no need to put your foot on the drum to force it in..
hey man can you tell me where you ordered your full emu kit from thanks!
I checked a few sites when I was looking to purchase. At the time, Summit Racing had the best prices on all of the parts.
@@rhino5ohh appreciate the reply, just curious why did you decide to go full old man emu? did you have issues with the spacers in this video? thanks again!
@@adamwaller9593 I had absolutely no issues with the spacers and I would recommend them to anyone looking for a budget lift. I eventually went with old man emu because my shocks, struts, and springs were all factory, 22 year old parts and they were tired. On one of my struts, the rod would collapse when you let it go (not supposed to happen, it should extend). And as you saw in the video, they were getting rusty. It was time to replace the parts for sure. I might eventually add a smaller spacer on top of the old man emu kit, but for now it looks great. Sits almost the same as the spacers did.
@@rhino5ohh Thanks for the reply
@@rhino5ohh thanks for the replies, I'm having issues trying to source out whether longer shocks on the rear will be required or will the stock shocks work with this spacer lift? thanks!
Yo can we talk about that GT350?
Good eye. I have a few vids on track with it on my channel!
👍👍👍👍🇰🇬
Dude your strut will turn you do not have to compress the spring turn the top plate on the strut you don’t have to remove the spring to do it just saying!!
Block your rear tires so they don’t move.
MAP gas is a big help dude. You can loosen the centre bolt when before you raise the vehicle.
Everything was going alright until you get to 9:27,you cut out some of the most important aspects with assembly and taking the spring and spindle, or when you assemble, certain things have to line up when you put the shit back on, sorry, I don't get it, no I have to watch someone else's rendition of putting spacers on a completely different way than you did...
Rhinos I try watching but too many short of nothing I have an idea but not in-depth
Nice looking 98 ! my favorite Pathfinders the 96 to 99 ? models I think ! the ones with this beautiful front grill , 2000 and up the grill change was not a better idea I don't like it .
Any chance you could link me those rims and tires
