Default Starting to need to screw with the suspension again...

Well I'm starting to lose another front strut...

Background-Uncut Xe coils about a 1" drop on my truck, I have a set of front coils that are cut for a 3" drop and a set of mustang 2 coils that give 4" of lift

I have an extra strut but it was also making some noise

Now I'm back to square one lift or lower or ???? I think my option at this point is $700 coilovers since I'm looking at some money for new struts and nothing is that good for a dropped frontier.

Option B is some titan drop springs on titan shocks but that will take some hacking. Then Bags would be the cheapest solution

Done and confused

it'd be nice if there was a lower cost aftermarket coil over option....700 for a par is steep

PRG is a company that makes great suspension products for Nissan, but I'm not sure of cost, products, etc...

http://www.prgproducts.com/

High costs for Nissan aftermarket stuff is normal though. Unfortunately, not many companies out there supporting Nissan so it's slim pickens and high cost...

I have bought from him in the past, running pgr's deaver-add-a-leafs.

Well shockwaves are almost the same price, I'm going to have to check if I can run a shock with a bag setup.

I thought the whole point of the shockwave was it had a shock and airbag built into one. Am I wrong about that?
