Finally got around to fitting a new set of tyres. Ended up getting a set of Yokohama Geolandar AT 265/70 18. They fill out the wheel arches and look good. Will take a couple of pics when it stops raining.

G'day mate, yes you need to break the ball joints and sway bar. It was awhile ago since I did mine, the front is very easy to do and will only take you 2hrs. I did the front and back in 5 hrs. The rear springs took longer than the front. all I did with the front was jack one side up at a time...

Not sure if it makes any difference but I have a 2016 ST-N sport manual, it is my work ute and I tow at least 4 times a week with constant 700kg's in my trailer and when full it is double that and that is at least once a week and I always keep the tub fully loaded and I have no issues with it...

Anyone else get a recall from Nissan in regards to a nudge bar recall. It doesn't affect me as I have a ST-N sport and the spoiler prevents it from having a nudge bar. (that was the excuse when I bought mine)

Yes still very happy with it.

When I did mine it was an option, if you paid the extra they supplied it already installed.

excellent thankyou

Will 265 70 x 18" standard rims work with a 2" lift

G'day Les Still very happy with the lift kit, it hasn't sagged at all, the ride is still good. As for comfort, I am extremely happy with it, apart from the sharp speed bumps, but that was the same with the standard setup. At this stage I can't fault it, still happy days. bakes

I seem to remember a year or so back a couple of other owners complaining about the same problem, can't say I read what the outcome was. Keep us posted, it could help others with the same problem. Personally I can't complain, mine had its first birthday last Tuesday, I got the manual ST-N...

That will save you another hour easy.

I just went outside and rechecked them, the front is 580mm from the centre of the wheel to the top of the wheel arch, that is 50mm on the nose. The rear originally was 80mm over due to the 200kg constant, now it has settled in it has dropped to 65mm over, which is fine with me as I'm always...

Hello all I fitted the above lift kit on April the 12th, I got the kit with the 200kg constant in the rear as I tow a work trailer fully loaded during the week. This kit took 5hrs to install, the hardest part was compressing the front springs to get top the plate off to reuse on my new kit (I...

Just keep driving it and keep an eye on your fuel gauge and ask yourself "what did I do before all this technology existed" Simple answer, you learnt how far you could go. Before you slag me, I understand what you are saying, but it is what it is.

Well done. That is a huge saving.
