I went with just leveling mine out. Going to do 2 inch front with the Bilstein 6100s 1 inch rear Readylift blocks with Bilstein 5160 gonna add new springs to the struts no reusing. Going to also add Dirt King upper arms and likely EBC front brake set. In the future I'd like to add a DC Power 270 amp alternator.
How did you get the lower control arm bolts out?I’m currently doing the same lift kit install. Did you paint your frame? I was going to ask about the upper control arms too but I see you covered that. They really make the lift stand out more 👍🏽
My only question is what made you choose Rough Country over Pro Comp. My reason for asking, is that I'm planning to put a Titan drop bracket and spindles on my 2011 Xterra Pro-4X (Titan Swap}. For Frontiers and Xterras, people Swap their front IFS for Titan IFS, because the frames are identical. The Pro Comp lift is no longer available from Pro Comp, but I can get it off eBay. My understanding is that the Pro Comp lift is directly bolt-on with no cutting. I believe the RC drop bracket is a bit beefier. I'd prefer to not have to cut one of the cross members under the transmission. I saw the Rough Country installed on a Frontier (the Frontier kit, not the Titan kit - different spindles). During the install they cut one of the X cross members under the transmission, in order to make room for the front drive shaft. If the Pro Comp doesn't require this, that's a better option for me.
@@anthony03241980 thanks. There's a guy named PRG Greg who is the guru on Nissan lifts and off-road mods. He put the Titan Pro Comp lift on his wife's 2005 MT Xterra. He used different spindles and shocks to get more travel (custom spindles). I'll probably use the spindles that come with the kit. Obviously I have to modify the rear leaf spring suspension on my own, because the Xterra is spring under axle. I'll then have to get Titan wheels and brakes, because the Titan hub is different than the Xterra and Frontier. It gets expensive. However, they're OEM parts. The Titan brakes are bigger, which will be better for larger, heavier wheels. The Titan wheel bolt pattern is also much more standard than the Xterra and Frontier, with far more aftermarket options. I may send more money on brakes, but I'll probably save that money on new rims.
@@anthony03241980 I still haven't found any pictures of how the front drive shaft gets to the lowered front differential, without requiring the cutting of one of those crossmembers. PRG Greg hasn't gotten back to me yet. It would be interesting to see the pictures of the installation. I know he rotates the front differential to be more in line with the drive shaft. That may be how he gets away without cutting.
What's your feelings about the RC so far? I'm about to order the same one for my titan pro4x. There's a lot of mixed feelings about this lift. I know someone who's had this lift since 2013 without no issues.
I like your lift, but what is with the wheels? Is that for gas mileage? You're going to feel every bump in the road. I would have gone with a smaller wheel, and a higher sidewall tire. Even if it's a mall crawler, you don't want to risk breaking expensive wheels.
@@anthony03241980 By any chance can you give me a part number the reason why I am asking is because rough country said they only work on 3 inch lift thanks for your help
I like u truck brother, I have 2010 pro4x with 3 inch block front lift and 22 rims -51 offset and 33 tires , I want go next year with 6 inch RC .. any issue with u lift ? I also have RC Control arm
Yeah I hear you, not a fan myself my drivers side outter tierod was rubbing the inside of my wheel on a hard right turn. Till I seen your video about turning them around which saved me from having to use the spacers. I'm running 20x9 fuel assaults with 35 12.50 tires.
Beautiful build man!!

Did you have to buy longer brake hoses or lines? Or does the bracket they give you for the brake hose make the brake hose not so tight?
Can I use my current Icon coilovers with this lift kit? I plan to have them rebuilt while I have the truck taken apart.
Where did you get your new leaf springs?
How many hours took to install the lift?
So putting a 6 inch lift kit we have to change the brake line?

If you have the money go with ProComp it is a better kit imo. Make sure the ProComp kit is complete if you decide to buy it from e-bay.

What uppers did you go with?
Hey bro how is the drive quality, is there any vibration or discomfort then before you lifted it, how are the dips and bumps when you drive over some?
It drives like it’s stock believe it or not it really does it drives great I can be rolling down 95 rolling 85-90 don’t even realize it lol
Did you have to cut your wheel wells to fit the rims if so can you make a video?
Ya had to cut some

I had no problem with it just it rusting and they send me a new one no problem
I did this lift with kicker bars and traction bars and have vibration when over 60 it’s driving me crazy
K1CK33 you must have something off did you get a alignment

Hi I have a 2014 Nissan Titan pro 4x where did you get the upper control arm and what brand are they thanks
bobby pruitt rough country got it on amazon

How did the lift hold up, i got about 2,000 miles on mine
It’s holding up really good so far
@@anthony03241980 perfect! I love this truck. Its nicer than my ‘18 rebel, minus the air suspension
I do have a question something I been running into. Do you have any spacers on your build?
DGSGAMING no bro no spacers don’t like them

DGSGAMING well I’m glad it helped you
@@dgsgaming9526 I’m about to be running 6 inch lift with 20x12 -44 on 35x12.50 tires do you think I’ll have any rubbing and have to cut any?
Any cutting required?
Scott Techmer ya there is a cross member that you have to trim but over all not to bad of a install
:( poor truck
Those rims and tires look dumb af on there
Sry there not to your taste what would you like me to put on there then
